PalaiologosTheGreat Posted December 7, 2023 Share Posted December 7, 2023 I've been empirically testing trying to maximise my GDP. I've found these aspects: province income isn't that big of an identifier, oil is huge and transports don't affect growth rate that much. I'm curious if anything besides events increases it more. I'm looking in the files and the only thing I can see is government. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lima Posted December 7, 2023 Share Posted December 7, 2023 There is "wealthGrowthMul" set in stone from the beginning of the campaign that affects GDP growth. In my experience it varies from 0.72 to 1.29. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This multiplier is randomly assigned to all countries at the beginning of the campaign. Generally speaking, GDP growth is not all RNG, but almost all... "wealthGrowthMul" - out of your control Government - on some starting dates, you can change the government, but this does not always help to change the situation for the better. (Russia can't catch a break) Transport capacity - keep this thing high Oil - this thing has a huge impact on GDP and you can capture oil-bearing regions...But unfortunately, the oil cows Venezuela and Iran are minors, the possibility of conquest/alliance with them is also RNG. And with all this, playing as the far-right/left/absolute monarchy with a low multiplier and no luck with oil is hell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PalaiologosTheGreat Posted December 8, 2023 Author Share Posted December 8, 2023 If only it was easier to influence taking different minor nations... I think it's funny that conquering provinces doesn't have that much influence on GDP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
