Okay, that can't be right. I just got #700 on a puppet and didn't receive option 4. Other people have received it, so it's clearly in the game. It must have some sort of validity.

I had an idea for this one (after it was mentioned in a throwaway forum post by someone else), but was stymied by the need for your nation to be at war for the issue to make sense, which I felt wasn't a reasonable assumption to make given the game's structure.Sammuramat wrote:- how to react to child soldiers on the other side
Well, there are some mostly-vegetarian foods that still commonly include small amounts of dead animals, such as cheese with animal rennet or candy with animal gelatin, but vegetarian alternatives exist and that seems more like a technicality for bureaucrats to handle, rather than the leader of the nation. The main issue, I guess, is whether foods are clearly marked for their ingredients, since someone being given a marshmallow without an ingredient list might not realize it contains anything non-vegetarian, but requiring ingredient lists is rather of a no-brainer even in non-vegetarian nations.Sammuramat wrote:- similar to the meat smuggling in a vegetarian nation - the import of products that may contain indirect meat products
#751 addresses some endangered but unpopular species, though it's more about being redundant than ugly.Sammuramat wrote:- prioritization of endangered species - big flashy ones that get loads of public love, or unpopular but vital species?

This is a Modern-Tech nation. We only put a satellite and a man into space so far.
We are a Middle power, so if we die, so will some of the global economy.
We have the 8th largest sovereign wealth fund in the world. (RL world)
Pro: Regulations, Military, Law and Order
Anti: Freedom of speech, Discrimination, CHEWING GUM
Just so you know, I don't think like that. That stuff is roleplaying Singapore (itself, the real life nation)

I wanted to write an issue about tourists for nations that have banned either or both, but I don't know if they kill tourism or not.

I feel like there are enough "GO TO WAR!!!" options that I'm surprised "at war" isn't a policy. Would it be possible for issues needing war to be chained off issue answers declaring war?

In the Autarky section, you list issue 648 as an activator of Autarky but that doesn't seem correct, as it leads to "Confessions Of A Dirty Mind", which is about confessions rather than anything remotely economic in nature.

I suggested that once. The group consensus was that implementing this policy would be way too much work. Maybe we could do this at some point, but I don't think it's possible at the present time.

Yeah, I'm in favour of the idea too, but not volunteering to implement this.

Probably would be editors rather than mods. Some mods have the necessary access, but our friends with the gold name tags are usually the ones who set stat effects and policy toggles.
I'd be willing to read through the issues and identify options that should toggle war on or off, but I'm not likely to get to it very soon because I have some other things that are higher on my to-do list.

Wait, you meant competent human supervision?

I am not an editor, but I don’t think a player-visible policy is necessary. It’s like having one policy be “only the police and military can own guns” and another being “no one can own guns.” There isn’t much differentiation between them.Ransium wrote:Just so you guys aren’t disappointed, even if a vegan issue is accepted into the game, we may not make a policy for it and even if we do it may not be a policy that’s viewable to the players.
