Has anyone ever managed to make birth rate high enough to make immigration irrelevant?

Personally i never managed to achieve that. Population is always on the decline by default.

Embassies make really good city halls

So, I’m the kind of player who likes to distribute my population into several different cities, towns, and smaller settlements across the island rather than just building one massive mega-city.

​But playing like this got me thinking about the lore/immersion: where the hell do my Tropicans actually go to get their birth certificates, marriage licenses, driver's licenses, and all that bureaucratic paperwork? Every proper town needs a local government building.

A user in a post suggested using the Newspaper building as a makeshift town hall.. I really considered it, but honestly, I had to scrap the idea. The newspaper already has a very defined, active function in the game (pumping out that sweet propaganda), so pretending it was the town hall just completely broke my immersion.

​So I went digging through the building menus looking for a replacement, and guys... Embassies are the holy grail.

​They work splendidly as local Town Halls. They have that perfect, official government aesthetic that looks great at the center of a town square. Plus, if you surround them with different parks, plazas, and decorations, you can heavily personalize them so each settlement has its own unique "City Hall" vibe.

(PSA: obviously, you need the “Unlimited Uniques” mod to build more embassies.)

Should I buy tropico 6 on the next discount or wait until 7 drops and then buy 6?

The questions is only because I think tropico 6 will maybe get much much more​​ discounted once tropico 7 comes out, and will not be 14 euros on discount on steam but maybe less. I don't plan on getting 7 because it will be expensive ​​​

Is there anyway to use cargo airports to speed up logistics?

Basically I put down 1 cargo airport and had one set to drop off goods at the other (red down arrow to blank) but my economy instantly crashed. Checking why it turns out they were driving goods allllll the way from my raw resources to the blank airport and flying them back to where they started. Then I tried swapping but same issue. What am I doing wrong? Or are airports not made for that?

What if we could colonize islands

What if there would be a map with random generated islands close and far from your island, but still in the Caribbean? That way you could be able to expand, make Caribbean allies and enemies, choose who to attack or stay as is. Have the option to attack and incase you win, you can then colonize the island (maybe only in the colonization era [after you make it out alive by kicking the majesty from your island] or even they could help you kick the majesty or vice versa) and have two islands but one prezidente. I would easily pay MUCH more to buy the next tropico 7 with this addition. It will add a difficulty system if you choose to NOT be friend with other carribean neighbors or it can help if you are friends with Caribbean neighbors incase a big power does an embargo to you or attacks you. The fellow Caribbeans can send you money and army just in case..

Tldr: neighboring islands could be fun, acting as friends or enemies. You could also colonize them.

Am I asking too much? After all relations with other countries already exist, the only extra thing to work out is the more-than-one-map. This could be solved by selecting which island you want to view at that time and you can swap anytime to any of your islands. So there will be no need to display two islands at once, just when controlling one, the other one could just continue existing but no need to display it or simulate the life-action of every building-citizen. Just on autopilot.

What's your opinion??

Could we somehow ask for it somehow to the devs??

El rapto de la Iglesia tendrá lugar, amigos; por favor, arrepiéntanse y entreguen su vida ahora. Después de que la Iglesia abandone este mundo, el Anticristo tomará el poder; ya no habrá paz y el caos se desatará en todo el mundo. Nadie podrá comprar ni vender sin la marca de la bestia 666.

T6 - Plantation efficiency

Noticed a funny thing, the corn plantation we begin with never loses efficiency even on mono culture & without manure spreader.

Sugar ones though, on mono with manure spreader still keeps dipping.

Why is that ?

While waiting for Tropico 7, what strategy games can you recommend?

I’m currently playing Tropico 6 for the second time. I’ve played Tropico 3, 4, 5.

I was thinking about Tropico 2, but it looks very different.

What’s your favorite strategy game similar to Tropico, or even something different?

My Distrito del Presidente

I did the math, average income in the district is $30 Tropican Dollars; I hope Tropico 7 gives us options to further reward Tropicans of exceptional loyalty and proximity to El Presidente; can't have El Presidente served a drink by a Tropican who makes less than $25 Tropican Dollars.
