Not sure if this is a bug or something intentional since the updates but Sallowtown and I know many other regions in Dwilight have had significant tax drops. I had an investment in Sallowtown last week and even now that it has lowered production is still over 90%.

On the politics page for tax and estates it says that the region should bring in just over 960 gold in tax income. This weeks taxes were 555 gold and that is after an investment.

Can someone explain what is going on that a city can no longer support its knights and lord let alone pay to purchase food?

Region turn script was bugged for several days. That means that all regions on some continents failed to add to their tax pool.

I don't know offhand when the bug first started. It's quite possible that it was present for a couple of days of last tax week and a couple of days of this one.

Check back through your message history; any day when there wasn't a region report, taxes weren't being properly collected.

If you don't receive region reports then no taxes are collected on that day. So I guess that you didn't get region reports for a couple of days and so the taxes were so low.
Just stay alive and kicking, raise your voice when its needed. Through reason you can show the mistakes of others, something violence can't do.
