Summary0017183: What is actually limiting max population?
DescriptionReally confusing what the current cap is, and the tooltip gives no information. This issue would be a priority for me on making the game more understandable since population is so important.

? If you click on the max pop it tells you exactly how to increase it. 1 food + 1 water = 1 meal. 1 meal + 1 house = 1 max pop.

So you need farms, water wells, places to make meals, and buildings.

I totally understand how to increase it. This issues was more transparency on the breakdown for the numbers behind the number right on the tooltip. Something like:

You have X food from:
-X rural farms
-other food sources, etc

You have X water from
-X wells

You can serve X meals from
-X food and X water

You have X housing from
-X condos
-other housing sources

This results in a max population cap of X based on X meals and X housing

with all the Xs and details filled in.

it looks like most of this is in the game now. Not sure if it was added or I just found out where to look.
