Department of Taxation

Hi this mod not clear to me need more info for it may i ask is it building mod or other way to active the tax i hope more info for this mod

Thanks for sharing, really like the idea :)
Some more information in description would be awesome and slider to adjust tax-rate sounds great, but how will Ai civs deal with this?

You could implement a slider or dropdown to select the tax rate. I got it to multiply by a variable without any issue, and I know you can build UI elements in XML and Lua, but I have no idea how to build them. If I get UI elements down, I'll implement it in this mod.

I like your idea Carlzilla. It's too bad there is no way to allow the player to physically adjust the tax rate. An idea I considered implementing in my mod was to allow the player to build multiple tax collectors (buildings). Each building increases gold and adds unhappiness per pop. To adjust the tax rate the player could sell a tax collector in the city screen or build another one. The problem is the AI isn't smart enough to handle this.

Huh that's also very interesting. Nice!

(continued from last comment...)

The happiness penalty does not change unless you're not collecting taxes. It's still a flat .25 unhappiness / pop penalty.

The rationalization would be that happy empires are those that are well maintained. Matainance costs money, money comes from citizens.

So, your request for turning tax revenue off when happiness fell below a certain level gave me a good idea for implementing an informal way of "tax rate". It's not technically a tax rate, but it increases the amount of gold when your empire is happy. It also turns off the bonus (and penalty) of the tax department when/if your excess hapiness falls to or below 0.

I'm still testing it, but here's the modifiers. They're open for discussion...

Less than 1 excess happiness nets no yield.
Between 1-5 excess happiness nets the basic +1 gold / pop yield.
Between 5-10 excess happiness nets a +1.25 gold / pop yield.
Between 10-15 excess happiness nets a +1.5 gold / pop yield.
Between 15-20 excess happiness nets a +1.75 gold / pop yield.
Over 20 excess happiness nets a +2 gold / pop yield.

Oh and could you perhaps add a way to get rid of the taxation while the mod is still there? For instance, if my happiness drops too low, then I can get rid of taxes but bring them back when happiness gets higher. Thanks.

I'm working on adding a UI tax rate slider to adjust the tax rate. You can adjust it for more gold/unhappiness or less gold but less unhappiness. It's simple, but I feel like not being able to adjust the rate is sort of ridiculous.

I like it ;)
