no clue. i would probably blame it on gerbils or gremlins. you should probably post about it on the Bugs and Suggestions forum.

Food decays a rate of .1% per turn or some shiiii like that

If it is stock, place on market at a price that wont sell

Then after that, i put foo on every 6-10 turns, depends on how much i make and what my income is at the time of running turns

Most people put food for sale after like 7-9m. As bstrong said, the decay is so high at 238m that you're losing 300k/turn, even as you produce 300k/turn.

yes, food decays at 0.1% of what you have on hand every turn. So at 238M bushels, you were losing 238k/turn to decay. That more or less offsets the 300k you generate every turn.

it is as people above said. One way to stop that is to place the bushels on the market and a higher price to prevent this.

you should most likely try to take TUMS or pepto bismol and avoid acidic foods for the next few days. drink plenty of water if you can stomach it.

next time you are gonna batchexplore then previous day recall your bushels from market and put those back there on high price.

OMG... *spanks all you miscreants who made fun of a guy trying to improve his game* I oughta take each and every one of you over my knee. :p

yylim80sss, let me apologize for these boobs. :p I'm glad you got a serious answer eventually. If you're interested in the finer points of Earth Empires and how to really amp up your game, there are some serious strategists on the Strategy forum that are always willing to help you get a better understanding of game mechanics. :)

(To bstrong and the others who were actually HELPFUL, thanks for sharing your knowledge!)

I cannot see your signature - so if it's witty, put it in a post instead! :p

Wait if I make fun of him I get spanked?
