National Stock Exchange [1.1.0]

Description
Due to the release of the Financial Services mod, this mod will no longer be developed further. I highly advise you to download the Financial Services mod instead, as this contains more features than this mod.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This mod implements a stock exchange (called the National Stock Exchange) where you can sell shares and buy bonds.

Features:
- The ability to sell your company shares to unknown investors in order to finance your upcoming projects.
You can only sell shares once every 5 ingame years, however. You will also have to keep in mind that you have to pay your shareholders dividend every year.
- The ability to buy bonds from fictitious companies, on which you receive interest upon repayment.

How does this work?
The mod is very simple. Once you have unlocked the 3rd office, AND have 75 million in capital, the National Stock Exchange will be unlocked for you, which you can then accessby pressing anywhere on the screen and selecting National Stock Exchange. From here you can select how many shares you wish to sell. Each share has it's own value, which is based on your current capital. Once you have selected the amount of shares you want to sell and have eventually sold them, you will receive an immediate cash injection. Every year you will have to pay your shareholders dividend, which ranges between 11,5% and 18,5% of the valuation of all of your shares sold (this is subject to review, however). In case you have a lot of capital and wish to cut down on your yearly costs, you have the ability to buy all your shares back. This is, however, very costly, as you buy back every single share you have sold. (which can be a lot later in the game).
In the case that you want to buy a bond instead, you can scroll down to the bond market and select a bond to buy. Each button (bond) indicates the (fictitious) company you are going to buy the bond from, the price of the bond, the interest rate you will receive and the time it will take for them to repay you fully. Each year you will receive a portion of your repayment with interest.

Changelog
1.1.0
Major bugfix. You will no longer be able to access the NSE from the start of the game (as I intended it to be from the beginning), nor will it show up as R&D research anymore. In order to unlock the NSE, you need to be at level 3 (3rd office) and have 75 million in cash.
The mod does not require UltimateLib after this update.

1.0.1
Bugfix. The game will resume again once the NSE screen has been exited.

1.0.0
Initial release

Known bugs:
- None

That's the problem then. The algorithm requires you to have at least 20 million in cash before you can start selling shares. I'm planning on fixing a lot of the mod's bugs within the next few days, one of them being you can't access the NSE without researching it.

about 2.1mil
JRW590  [author] 1 Jan, 2015 @ 7:12am 
Hmm, how much cash do you have?
Ethanol 1 Jan, 2015 @ 2:14am 
its always at 0 per share on mine
JRW590  [author] 31 Dec, 2014 @ 6:33am 
Unfortunately the algorithm I created is flawed: the value per share will always stay at 20.

so when will my value per share start to rise so i get stuff whenn i sell it?
