How did I lose networth from purchasing units?
I had no ops or any attacks done on me.

tech or something sell? i know the money is legit, but it is the only thing i can think of.

I gave the link to qz. Maybe he can/will look into it for you

thanks bstrong86.

the amount bought on my private market tallies with the money deducted shown, so there cant be any sales from tech.

No problem, he hasnt responded yet..

You sure no ops were done?

Also, maybe if something sold, it didnt catch up at that exact moment with the cash.?

Also, i just checked to see if i could look up previous country info, i cant/dont know.how, if i can.

Yes, definately no ops.
Like what I said, if something sold in between the moments where I did my purchase, the money will not be tally

For eg. If I had 10m cash on hand, and I bought something for 4m while 3m worth of goods sold, I would have 9m(10-4+3) in my final cash amount, but in my case, the money was exactly what it should be.

logically you would think that is how it works, but with this game you never know lol.

If you add up everything in your country's final status you'll find that the total NW matches the expected value, so you weren't cheated out of NW or anything like that.

Thats not the issue Slagpit. Just wondering what could be the reason behind this case.

FYI, this screenshot was taken at the next turn when I purchased the same amount of units.

I cant really check that since I do not have all the formulas and a spreedsheet to plug in all the values.

Well you said that you lost NW but that didn't technically happen. It's possible that the NW total in the top right temporary displayed the wrong value. That's a much less serious issue, albeit one still worth looking into.

We dont exactly know the word technical here, this is a text-based game, what we see are just text and numbers shown on our computer screens. So from a normal player point of view, I lost nw.

hmm strange

No idea, but if there were a bug here I'm sure it would have been identified =/ you're sure you didn't get attacked ro spied or something?

im positive, you can check my country news.

I'll give it a go, here's my explanation...

h2onOOb moment 😛

I took a look at it and there's some inconsistencies from what I see. What I find even more interesting is that your net was actually higher than what your photo actually shows (the top number) that is.

I get that from:
