old age on a world resulting in buggyness?

Description:
recently it seems that more and more odd bugs are appearing on sabrada. first it was occasional items diseappearing, then sales tax. now no towns collect tax and investment is vanishing from buildings.

the world itself is at year 118 and i'm wondering if since the world is getting so old, is it possible that old values in the files are getting messed up due to size restrictions?

Its likely that over time more errors can crop up, but each error is a separate case that needs resolving.. Fundamentally, the length of time the worlds been running shouldnt make a difference - at least it wouldnt if all the individual bugs were resolved.

Please could you send me a current .isl of sabrada and i'll have a look through whats happening.

looks like this should be individual bug reports based on the data that is going screwy, so closing now
