money bug, where did it all come from ? "pot of gold&am

[flake]

I was building a lot of canals and ships (and digged around allot). All of a sudden I have this:


The next year (I didn't build as much as befor):

Maybe I built so much that some variable was to small? I don't really think so... Whatever now I can build what I want

WTF!! TTD can't display 8 billion!

8.589.934.592 = 2^32
thats odd my dear developers, isn't it

Strange as it may sound - Yup! You actually hit the maximum size of the integer! Dunno why it went all the way to 8 bil (2^32 = 4 bil . . .), but you did indeed hit the limit.

Problem is, the limit is due to the size of the integer - fixing it would involve changing a lot of code .

Yeah, I've got the same problem builiding the canals, but I got it in the first canal!

Hmm, I thought Ludde made the finance window use 64-bit integers too. Maybe it was something else that caused this problem.

i've got a different bug, when you are window in mode and reduce the window to icon, when you return to the game you have a nice surprise, you get the total ammount of the loan, but without have the loan!
this only happens when the amount in the cash is lower than the maximum loan, if it is greater it is added
