nation treasury

[Lachlan]

I got a suggestion for kings/queens and anyone on a country's council tobe able to deposit some money into the treasury. I find it a bit weird that you can take money out of the treasury but not in. There could also be a cap for how much each player can contribute. N ot sure what it would be though.

[Sir Henry Morgan]

This has been discussed before. No direct deposits into the treasury are in the plans for the future.

You make 'deposits' with taxes - raise ship taxes, loan taxes...that is how it is set up.

Port control is the most lucrative way nation treasuries are funded...taxes.

[DezNutz]

This has been soundly rejected before for the reason of players using the treasury as an unlimited private bank to store funds.

so that is why I suggested a limit

[William one eye]

My suggestion would be national treasury and national fund.

Players could donate to but not remove from national fund. National fund, national treasury or both ( using one as a reserve) could be selected for nation improvements, such as buildings, monuments, harbors, roads, acres, ect.

So players could donate to improve their nation, but the only way donated funds would reach the players is by increased revenue going to the treasury created from building improvements.

I would suggest that donations to the national fund would be done in the same manner as build up port and give a small influnence gain in the port you are donating in. Smaller gain than build up port (unless this replaced build up port. ) In most cases you would most likely only want to donate in the ports that belong to your nation. Donations once donated would not be port specific, they would be available for allocation to any available projects nation wide.
