It's Back!!!

Well, that didn't last very long, did it?

Been sat on a nice stable max population for quite a while now, and up until this morning it showed a very sensible 4520/4520.

Then, after today's additional maintenance, looks like the population tooltip has gone to hell again, with a very silly 4639/4520 as shown below.
Sigh, 1 step forward, 2 steps back. :(

Just kill off some troops in an adv and it should be fixed

[Peajay]

sounds like some of your settlers have been made homeless. perhaps this is a realistic update after all.

It isn't fixed. I was over 1k under max pop before maintenance, when I logged in after maintenance I was something like 100 over max pop, then about 10 mins later it had reset TO max pop. Then after adv I was under again but available settlers was 0 for about 3 hours. Now I have 140ish available pop and it's showing at max.

It is definitely not fixed. Ironically, before the 'fix' I wasn't affected by the issue - all the pop were as they should have been!

I did a few advs, not lots, in the 7 days before... and a couple of lootspots. Ok I can't say for sure that I wasn't affected before it, but I don't see how it can be fixed when I experienced the jumping pop I did AFTER the maintenance and before doing an adventure. It was definitely showing 1k pop BELOW the limit before maintenance, and was over it after. Doesn't sound like the bug you describe about getting extra before the fix.

If you are over population its because it has been fixed now but while bugged you built extra troop that the bug allowed you to do.

If you are over population kill of troops or build more population buildings.

No, I'd been at max population for several weeks, always showing 4520/4520.
Only adv I did was a lootspot, and that was no losses (although the 1r didn't add back in on return).
Nothing has changed on there, I haven't made troops, haven't llost any, and not built or destroyed any residences.
The only thing that has changed is the maintenance, so their so-called "fix" lasted less than 2 days. :(

In that case your taking this thread off track.

[Nogbad]

then I would suggest send ticket to support as the maint DID fix the known population bug and as that only started 10 days ago and you say weeks in your case then I suspect with you not doing adv yours is due to the previous population bug fixed in feb that started at xmas, the bug I am discussing and was posted as the bug HAS been fixed.

No, I did NOT have the bug prior to this, it was introduced during the "emergency maintenance" to fix the football event.
If the bug was ever fixed as stated, it only lasted 2 days then broke all over again.

i never added any more settlers after i hit my max yet all of a sudden i was almost 2000 over.
