Is this a bug?

from GalCiv2 Forums
Are the following issues bugs?

1. When I gain 20,000 bc surplus in my treasury, my tax income suddenly drops about 2,000 bc until my treasury drops below 20,000 and then returns to normal at which point the cycle repeats.


2. Cargo hulls have 0 upkeep regardless of what I put on them.

There's an income hit once you have that much in the bank, to discourage hoarding.

Any unarmed ship has 0 upkeep. If you put weapons on a cargo hull though, it should start requiring upkeep.

I dont understand that. What if when it drops to the set <2000bc/turn max>, it starts making you LOSE money? I dont see how saving will make you lose it.

It doesn't drop to a set amount, it cuts a percentage of your income. In my last game I would go from 278K/turn to 144K/turn(approximations)if I didn't spend down to 20K
