[FIXED] "Other" taking money out of bank - impossible with medium - brutal difficulty
after a few hours of research, ive come to the conclusion this mod was made for easy mode. I have experimented with the mod and come to the conclusion the default settings are impossible.

however, 1/4 of the defualt settings is possible and is likely what ill be using in my youtube lets play (see: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ryo1M58FwoI&list=PL266vQB-cmQ8HO42i86ajpw_RD83yys2y)

Recommendations for those outside of easy mode:

turn the percentages to 1/4 or lower

Recommendations for mod creator:

Show all tax on the tax tab - do not show any numbers under "other" as it is really confusing
Balance it (if other is intentional remove it, and if not fix it)

also, a clear all would be nice, so we dont have to pay for the roads AI builds (or maybe glitches the player fixes) as they would be government owned anyway

Thanks for your recommendations :). I'd love to not show anything under other, but include it in the default screen already. With the old API it was the easiest way to actually interact with the finance system => everything goes under other. With the new API it is possible to book something to the different sections, Version 2 of the mod is in dev, but yeah time is limited these days with priorities on RL atm ;-)

There is no way (known to me) to differentiate in any of the actions you do (replace of a road or building a new one). AI builds are not charged.

Actually the default settings work for me with Hard Mod quite well, keeps me balanced or close to no margin sometimes.

thats very strange. Ive done some more research, and 1/4 of the default with the min and max set to the same works pretty well (for brutal mode, though i dont know why hard would be different, brutal just increases build costs of tunnels, bridges etc)

Thanks lms... The fix itself is done, just the timing of when things happen have changed, so the data will be misleading, especially if you compare standard game screens with this mod's screen.

That's fine, as long as the taxation is done correctly. :) Cheers, man!

Guys, I appreciate that you're keen to test and use this mod. But I'm testing internally for the moment, to not bring in issues like with one of the last releases ;-)
