Trade/Leasing question

from Stardock Forums
I am selling and leasing goods to alien civs pretty often and noticed that sometime actual incomes does not fit to negotiated values (eg. 50bc per 20 months should give 1000 bc but actually gives less). I think it happens in case of leasing. What happens when the civ which bought any good from me runs out of money? Are they always paying negotiated values?

They go further and further into debt

They have to pay the negotiated values, it is an official trade. Like Peace Phoenix said, I think they just go further and further into debt.

That's only my impression. What about case when "level" of relations between my race and aliens changes do worse one? Does it have any influence on payments? What incomes are included in tributes? I didn't demand any tribute (mean money in exchange for nothing) from my competitors but economic stats show significant money comming from tributes. Also according to "SPENDING" section i am paying huge tribute but actually nothing is being paid by me. Are those stats reliable?

AFAIK, the will go further into debt. If you get the Draginol event, your can get about 150K BC's per month from the Draginol minor and this continues until they are wiped out.

Are you rush-buying any social/military items? This will contribute there.

No i am not making any purchases. Acutally this number in spending->tribute was really weird - 429496294, but it changed to 0 after some turns without making anything.

This is the reply from CariElf:

It turns out that it's caused by an error in the string table. If you want
to fix the error yourself until we put up another update, you can search for
the string BCPerTurnRaw in English.str. Change the %u to %ld and it should
display correctly.
