Ha! That sucks, but I guess that's just a chance you take when you spend down to $0 :P

Aww, that is really lame. Random events suck balls. Losing 1200 buildings to one earthquake is also a pretty nasty kick in the teeth.

I've had worse :(

As a farmer early set, I was setting up to do a Batch Explore with the Sell Food Every Turn check box clicked.

I entered 134 Turns and hit enter.

Received an Exploration halted due to food shortages because of a stupid negative food thing after exploring only 44 turns.

Which completely screwed up my entire set for that country. My batch explore plan was completely shot. And in the end, ended up around 2k acres shy of my other countries that didn't halt due to food shortages.

Actually, it was more or less, I was being lazy. So I turned on the "Sell Food every turn" since I had positive food production.

I surely hope those game mechanics were not intended. Because halting during a batch explore really sucks.

You should have that turned on when batch exploring if you aren't a farmer

I was a Republic/Farmer doing my final batch explore as Republic before Switching govs. I did not expect an exploration halt after only 44 turns. As I said, I had positive food production every turn. Until the negative food turn showed up and took me to something like -30 food produced for that turn.
