Hi,
I hope this is a quick question with a simple answer: why can't I construct corporations? :)
I'm way beyond researching the required technologies and I have my poor great engineer wandering between cities having the required resources (stone, iron, gold, silver etc.) and the icons of both Creative Constructions and Mining Inc.) are grayed.
Which page in the manual did I miss?
Thanks,
Ury

p.s. I'm playing v3.13

Are you in State Property? That prevents the founding of corps it seems.

Do you have the gold? You need to pay a chunk to found one...

I thought State Property had something to do with it (although it specifically says that only foreign corporations have no effect). So I switched to Mercantilisim but it didn't do any good. I have 1350 gold so that shouldn't be the problem...
Any ideas?

Free Market. State nulls ALL corps, Merc just international. So I guess Free is the way to go!

There's a bug in 3.13 preventing corp founding under mercantilism. check Bhruic's unofficial patch.
