Default Re: Do provinces grow in pop without Growth Domain

It used to be that pop growth was .1% per turn. With a .2% change per additional growth scale. Just as KO I have no recollection of this being changed, but perhaps it was between dom 1 and dom2 when turns were officially said to be one month.

0.1% per turn would result in 30.000 growing to 30.605 in 20 turns.
But this does not happen - either it's removed completely (and I vaguely remember both of you, Kristoffer and Johan, stating that there's no base growth in Dom2, or 3,.. I think it's on the wish-list, even), or the per-turn growth is rounded away somehow in error.

Would be great to have some "base growth", either as a game (command line) option or moddable - maybe depending on the growth scale setting and therefore not requiring a seperate mod command?!

PS: I'll try to dig out DomPPP this weekend and run a test ... I really can't remember if there was any "base growth" at work back then ..

Hmm, IMO Dominions era isn't really comparable to today. It's like Europa in year 1000 for certain nations, far before for EA nations. It wasn't really time of population growth, at least not for a seasonal scale.

Or maybe consider that our earth is on a Growth 1 scale
