Scary: 1.17 or my first time at failure?
I was playing a game, and I closed it up to download the new version 1.17. When I reopened the game, the first thing that happened was a REDUCTION of borders due to cultural decline!

I have NEVER seen this before! Borders for me only got bigger, never smaller... Now, I am playing a bit more of the militant game this time, so this could be it, but I wasn't sure. Am I just failing culturally for the first time, or is this a new addition to the game?

If it is new, I think it makes sense...

Never heard of this before.... how can culture decrease? Did you build "negative-culture" buildings?

If it is a new addition, I can see how it could be useful...

You must havve been playing as the Americans. We are always hearing about how our culture is in decline.

i've seen the message before, but ONLY when i was screwing with the border factor... if you set it to 8 and play for a while, and then raise it to 9 or 10, some borders will obviously shrink, and the game has a message for it. but i don't see how it could possibly happen in a regular game.

pauli, you've solved the mystery!

A while ago, I reset the border factor to 5... as a result, when i installed the patch, it reset all of the values back to their default forms. So it went from 5 to 10, so of course, i was immediately going to get a message like that. Thanks for the help.
