Bug lending system

[niccolo]

the lending system makes no sense. If the nation remains without funds (the treasure is in red) automatically receive the loans. These loans can be received indefinitely without paying interests and never repay the debts. after the 2nd loan and onwards the debt disappears and stays at $ 0.00. So infinite loans, interest-free, zero debts to pay. Is this a bug? Apparently only in the "1936" campaign works.

I think the way it is it depends on whether you have checked
Debt system on/off.

If you have set to "off" then debt is not possible. Treasury can go into lots of -$$$.$$$$ but usually when it hits negative sums, the AI changes many things and for example stops research and construction altogether to get out of the negative as fast as possible.

If you have set it to "on" then debt exists and there is an interest rate. Go to "taxes" or something screen, then go to "expenditure" and hower your mouse on "government" "administrative" or something like that. You will see there is "interest" listed there. The way it works, the AI takes bonds every time its treasury is getting low. Then spends the money and takes another bond... Just like today's economy in basically every country. However, interest accumulates and it can have huge problems perspectivelly... just like in today's economy. Personally I like to play bond-free, but taking loans can be a great tool to jump-start your country I guess. If played right. If you fail then you end up with a failed economy + huge loans and having to pay interest on top of that
