You can have on hand?

I don't think there is a limit that anybody has hit yet. It used to be $2 billion, but that was removed when the game switched from E2025 to EE.

no limit? lol

i sold 3.2 billion bushels on my private market for 36 for something like a hundred and fourteen billion dollars in ffa. some of those semperfi countries and mercsinc countries i'm sure had double, if not triple that (but i don't know if it was all at home at one time like mine was)

depends on the size of the field in the database. i would assume the next step from a 32bit integer is a 64bit, but i might be wrong on that.
if that's the case, then the max is $18,446,744,073,709,551,616 (18 quintillion, or 18 billion billion)
of course, they could just manually set it to an as-yet unknown specific max amount.
of course since it's probably damn near impossible to get max decay on express, this is probably a moot point since corruption would make it a huge pain to get anywhere near that :P

Yeah in terms of this server, there is no max and corruption sets in a 2B.

So it would be wise to keep cash on hand under 2B.

I think the specific maxes were taken out, as well as the "glitch amounts" (2 bil bug, etc) that were unintentional/bug limitations.

You do, however, have to be careful of corruption as Kingme mentioned, which sets in when you surpass 2 billion in cash - anything over that amount, and you incur a per turn penalty on your cash at * I THINK * a .1% per turn loss (I hope a mod will correct this at some point), which is essentially a rule based limitation.

Sorry if that's redundant/unnecessary, wasn't sure how much about that stuff you already know.

there is a limit, but its something insane

i can tell you that i have 64 trillion on a test server, so you can have that much


also, with the bonuses, you can eliminate corruption in 30 days

2^63

or $9,223,372,036,854,775,808

nine sextilion two hundred and twenty three quintillion three hundred and seventy two quadrillion thirty six billion, eight hundred and fifty four million seven hundred and seventy five thousand eight hundred and eight is the most money i could possibly have on hand?

i had to go to google for anything past quadrillion

braden i'm impressed!

swt =.='

Did anyone know how the bushels corruption work??

lol go google "googol" and "googolplex" :P

Braden sucks. He missed trillion :P

So it's actually as follows:

Nine quintillion, two hundred and twenty three quadrillion, three hundred and seventy two trillion, thirty six billion, eight hundred and fifty four million, seven hundred and seventy five thousand, eight hundred and eight.

i did, fluff :(

i apologize considering i looked at the list and still messed it up :P
