Wellness in eRepublik V1
How does your wellness increase?
In V1 we have changed the formulas that determine the way your wellness level increases each time you consume food units from your inventory. The idea is simple: the smaller the level of wellness you have, the easier it is for you to increase it; at the same time, the higher the wellness level you have, the more difficult it is to increase it (just like in real life, the better you are feeling, the harder it will be to feel even better). If a citizen has 100 wellness points and has no food items in his inventory, he will die after 45 days. Also, if he has 50 wellness, he will die after 30 days. Learn more about how wellness is influenced by the quality of your house and food units: http://wiki.erepublik.com/index.php/Wellness
Tip: Having high quality food in your inventory is vital if you want to keep your citizen’s wellness at a high value. Make sure you check the marketplace daily to find the best prices for the products.
You can also increase your wellness by:
- Receiving gifts (increases by a value equal to the gift quality)
- Buyin a cool house
- Purchasing higher quality moving tickets when you travel between regions
- Buying wellness packs (10 wellness units for 2 Gold)
- Visiting your local hospital once a day during war (wellness will increase by 10 times the quality level of your hospital)
How does your wellness decrease?
Wellness will drop in fixed values, independent from your current wellness level:
* -1 Wellness every time you train
* -Q Wellness every time you work (Q= quality level of your company)
* -1 Wellness every day for General Managers (for each company they manage)
* -10 Wellness every time you enter a fight (also you will lose 5 wellness units if you don't answer \ one of the trivia questions correctly, or 20 units if you skip the trivia)
* -Y Wellness each time you travel (Y= 2 if the quality level of your ticket is one and Y= 1 if the quality level of your ticket is two).
Additionally, having no food won’t make your citizen feel very healthy, so it will of course cause you to lose your wellness pretty quickly.
Tip: Being a General Manager can be fun in eRepublik, but not when you own 12 companies – this is because your wellness will drop by 12 units daily. The best way to manage a large amount of companies is by using an organization because these entities don't have wellness.
What have we been up to lately
1. Change residence - now you can move to any region, even if it is conquered by another country.
2. Donate currency – fixed the bug so that now you can donate any currencies without encountering problems.
3. Added a maximum value for a job offer - the salary shouldn't be higher than 10,000 of the national currency. Also the maximum value of a minimum wage and the citizen fee is 1000 national currency. This way we avoid any attack of the administration against their own country economy.
4. Small design improvements can be found on the results pages for working and training.
5. Fixed the issue involving the alerts sent when removing a friend. Now your ex-friend will receive an alert, not you
.
6. Now you can use paragraphs in your comments for an article.
7. 'Visit hospital' bug solved.
8. No more economy questions in the Work Trivia.

great thanks
-.-'
thank you
you had to say us early
What about the productivity formula regarding the upgrade of RM companies. There is no point in going to q2 as your employees will produce excactly half...
Sure, but since we can't eat the Food we have and can't recive Gifts this information is just as great as when the Queen of France asked whey the starving peasants didn't eat Cakes instead when they complained that they where out of bread.
We can read the rules, we can read the Wiki. But since that information is in no way correct with how the game acctually work it's quite useless to be honest.
The list of bugs are long and the answers from admin are few to none.
You should fix the food and house bugs, cuz i can't fight
Good job
but still there is a lot of work to do !!
Great
I tried to work right now (7 or 8 times)... I finish the trivial, watch the correct answer and then, i click on the GET THE BONUS button, but this message appears:
Fatal error: Call to undefined method Companies::IndustryDomain() in /var/www/production/releases/20081021130309/apps/frontend/modules/company/actions/actions.class.php on line 167
In the other hand, mister Admin, as a 7th party in Argentina, and unable to participate in the congressmen election (we have enough votes to get at least 3 congressmen), are you considering to CHANGE the "Only Top5 parties" criteria??
with this, you are forcin the 6th and below parties to be inactive and death in political terms... let us participate, PLEASE!
you can force some requirements (a minimun of militants, a % of the total active citizens, etc)... top 5 criteria is unfair!!
That is releaving!!!!!
I don't know what you guys are talkikng about.
My citizen ate today and his wellness increased, and also the house did it's job.
lol
Because of bug in hospital, can you put wellness up to 100 for those players whoms wellness is under 40? I bought 3 wellness pack to get me over 40 and then I fought to get possibility use hospital. Now I am on 70 wellness. How those who dont have gold?
i liked the economy questions....
good job
Thanks
fix the bugs on marketplace,plzzzz....
i'v reported it like 10000 times!
i'ts more important than a maximum wage....
"Visiting your local hospital at least once a day during war"
I am confused... you can use it more than once a day?
eh, i can't fight in resistance beacuse food don't work, gift's don't work, house not work, hospital not work and WELLNESS PACK don't work..
WTF?
Why would you remove economy questions from trivia for work?
what about the wellness bugs ?
What about the recent "Can't work bug?"
- The War Module is bugged 5/5 shall give a Superfight, now it gives a supefight with only 3 Supershoots. This makes ranking bugged. Remove the false wins and fix the War Module.
- I can't re-join my Political Party.
- Monetary Market offers are gone so are the money.
Work hard to solve this thanks.
work says this:
Fatal error: Call to undefined method Companies::IndustryDomain() in /var/www/production/releases/20081021130309/apps/frontend/modules/company/actions/actions.class.php on line 167
but the army works. That happens in the little trivia box whether I skip it or not.
Worst problems IMO.
Slowness - The game is slow, it takes ages to load most things.
Errors, whether it's symfony or the fatal work error, (mentioned above by Ernesto)
Economy - Lots of things needs changing here, especially the upgrading formula for companies. Why bother upgrading if it gives no proper benefit? This is a RL sim, why would people produce half of what they normally would at a better equipped facility than at a lower valued facility?
where is my q4 house ?
@Misho: The entire team is now working extra hours to solve bugs. Thanks Misho for your help.
@Hamed: Thanks and we are aware that V1 needs a lot of work from us right now.
@Ernesto_Guevara: The top 5 criteria is not forcing small parties to be inactive, is actually the other way around. Parties have something to fight for (members) and if they manage to win this battle with other parties, the prize is that top parties can enter the election race. We simply can't leave all parties to join the elections as it would create a huge list and it would be very difficult to manage your country this way.
@Jafarin: As far as I know the hospital bug should be fixed
@Finantia: These days we've been fixing also some problems on the monetary market and marketplace. These updates will appear in the report tomorrow.
@Erwin Schauman: You can only visit the hospital once a day. Sorry for this error.
@Riashain: Many users complained about the difficulty of the economy questions and I can say that myself as an economist I found those questions quite difficult.
Ok, ok... But what about food and houses bugs?
@opticsverity: thanks for this. I've notified someone about it
@Squiddy: Thanks for your feedback, we will analyze the economy questions you've raised.
@crc: top priority
I hope so, because most of us (poles) can't fight cuz of this.
No more economy questions in the Work Trivia.
Why? that are the kind of answers I know ¬¬
Economy question are more general than country questions...
Its quite difficult to answer about a country I have never stuidied about...
"why would people produce half of what they normally would at a better equipped facility than at a lower valued facility? "
Because you sell at a higher price.
Hooray for positive change! Could you please start fixing the bugs that prevent party presidents from choosing their candidates for congress?
Frankly I find the random history questions (things you don't really ever need to know) much more difficult than economy questions that in some cases are self-evident. The geography questions were just as difficult as the economy ones. The history are definitely the hardest of them all. I can accept it as the reason you did it, but I really don't agree with it.
I hates the new wellness formula !!
Can you fix the bugs now?
Good job!
A suggestion:

Seems to be good activity in this thread, might aswell share my problem. -.-
I can't login on my SO "Maxii Corporation SO", I get an error message when I've pressed the login button:
http://i167.photobucket.com/albums/u150/Incorrekt/erepublikloginerror.jpg
Anyone familiar with this kind of error?
I've used the contact form and I'm waiting for a response, just want to see if anyone have had the same problem.
I can't eat and my house doesn't work! I ve bought a q3 food 3 days ago. It's been the highest quality food in my inventory and it still there!
lol great more quetions !!
Weee ... xD
@PrincessMedyPi: This is very important to fix as the Congress elections are approaching fast
@Falkonetti: Not even my superpowers can do this without hard work from our devs
@Maximilian: Thanks for the screenshot, it will be quite helpful when I will talk with the devs about this bug.
Do you know that we are the free tester of your product and you didn't and don't respect us with all the bugs.
When I couldn't resign the party, when no one couldn't donate me stocks, when I couldn't travel, what this word mean to me: "wellness".
Plis Fix the PARTY bug, for example in Vnezuela MSUV party web doesnt work, we cant do anything
http://www.erepublik.com/en/party/m-s-u-v--1242/1
Fatal error: Call to a member function getId() on a non-object in /var/www/production/releases/20081021130309/apps/frontend/modules/party/templates/_partyHeader.php on line 9
BTW i cant work either, i had the same problem that Ernesto_Guevara already expose
Admins, could you PLEASE clarify the precise way in which houses now improve wellness. Buying a Q4 house once was a substantial benefit to wellness but now seems nearly irrelevant.
Also, Organizations cannot donate Gifts!
just another way from admin to sell the wellnes box.... lol
I would prefer if you optimize your server(s) fisrt, so that they become faster, before you add fancy stuff to the gameplay...
wellness increase = (1.5 - current wellness/100)* wellness bonus
4 = (1.5 - 100/100) * 8 (food Q4 + house Q4)
what if I work in Q4 Company and train, which mean my wellness is decrease 5 point each day?
@AH: For example: your wellness level is 10 and you have a house of quality 4 in your inventory, your wellness will increase with 11.2 units, making it much easier for your citizen to get back to a steady wellness level. Hope this might be helpful, if not I'll have someone explain in more details how houses will influence your wellness daily.
@amirpatapon: Bringing to live a highly complex project as it is eRepublik V1 involves a high amount of work and (is not an excuse) we're humans and mistakes can be made. Each feature or module in eRepublik was created for you, the end-user, as an answer for your needs, so saying that we have no respect for you is quite brutal. Sorry you feel this way, hope we can fix the bug you mentioned in order to bring you back to more positive thoughts
I bought a cool Q5 house last night
@Emerick: It would be a nice idea for you to invite me over to your new place
@Cristi Badea
"so saying that we have no respect for you is quite brutal"
Brutal is the whole time I wasted for about 4 mounths, no improvement.
The get bonus feature in the work trivia is failing:
Fatal error: Call to undefined method Companies::IndustryDomain() in /var/www/production/releases/20081021130309/apps/frontend/modules/company/actions/actions.class.php on line 167
Since I am sitting on 4/5 correct with 3 Supershots, I do not want to try get bonus and lose my benefit. Please post a notice when the line 167 error is corrected so i can submit my answers.
(I liked the economics questions)
No offense intended, but if everyone is bitching about the trivia, I highly doubt it was for our needs If everyone is complaining about how wellness is working, it isn't for our needs. Things for user needs mean they are implemented the way users want, not additions to modify these things in a way the admin see fit.
Now I'm not passing judgement, you can implement things how you want, but to claim these were done in response to user needs when the response to them has been overwhelmingly negative seems silly. I'll stand corrected in a majority of the playerbase specifically asked for these changes the way they were implemented, but I'll be highly surprised if such proof exists.
Wow, you're doing it wrong. You removed the economy questions from trivia... the questions that ACTUALLY apply to working. Instead we get random European flag colors. Great.
Thanks for fixing the decimal/whole number problem in the Oil offers. When will we have a compose tab in our inbox? It causes a lot of needless site traffic searching and loading someones profile page in order to send them a message.
"3. Added a maximum value for a job offer - the salary shouldn't be higher than 10,000 of the national currency. Also the maximum value of a minimum wage and the citizen fee is 1000 national currency. This way we avoid any attack of the administration against their own country economy."
I see what you're doing here, but I think that putting restrictions on us really takes away a lot of what makes this game fun. You just took away something that could've turned into an interesting scandal
"6. Now you can use paragraphs in your comments for an article"
Good if true. Trying to now
@Soeharto: considering your example, you will maintain your wellness level at 100
I whipped up a wellness calculator to try and work out what was going on. I hope others find it useful:
http://www.cccp-group.org/index.php?page=erep_wellnesscalc
Looking forward to the raw materials forumla fix
Removing the economy questions wasn't a good move in my opinion. They were something different; at least one had to think instead of Googling, and one could also learn something. The economy questions were one of the not so many things that I and many other people enjoyed in V1. I understand the technical difficulties and other issues, but here you're just trying to ruin the educational factor of the game and decreasing variety, why?
@Cristi: only if you promise not to take it with you when you leave
well I have a Q4 house... somewhere. Where it is I don't know because I don't see the little icon like in Beta and I don't seem to be getting the boost from it anymore...
every one has problem and the vote increses each second, hehe
The economy questions you could figure out, if you could decipher the English. The geography questions asking you to place random tiny villages into random tiny provinces of random tiny countries - fail.
Since you appear to get the "supershot" for answering _quickly_, the best strategy has turned into "if you don't recognize the question, guess."
So, 3 main concerns (plus one more of my own):
1) Houses seem to have a much undervalued bonus to wellness, especially when a Q4 house costs 700 USD or more.
2) Organizations cannot offer gifts, insofar as I could tell.
3) Economics questions were actually useful to in the game world, bring them back and take out some pointless esoteric questions instead (flag colors, rivers through small cities).
4) It would be nice if we could see another person's house, like before.
Great, now just fix the bug so I actually could eat the food in my inventory.
Why don't you add the questions which are related to our working domains, such as: working in Raw Material Wood would have question like "what is the oldest tree in the world" while working in weapon would have question like "what does AK in AK-47 stands for?"
One more thing, rather than removing the economic questions, it's better for you to remove the questions about some unknown people in some unknown cities in some unknown provinces in some unknown countries in some unknown parts of the earth like others have said.
Thanks for the hard work anyway.
Thanks for the information
If you really, really need to have the geography based questions - please make it so it's region specific. E.g. if you work in, say, belgium, you'd have to answer belgium geography questions. >This would simulate the natives knowing their country better and somone living there for a long time would learn the "ways of the land" the longer they stayed and get better through time.
Instead of capping the salary offers at 10000, why not cap them at the money the company has in its accounts? That would eliminate the really ridiculous ones, while keeping the freedom for places like Greece to offer whatever they can afford.
Wellness Pack DOESN'T WORK - giving error!
Work DOESN'T WORK - giving error!
When are you going to finish fixing the inventory.
Mine is still lost.

Got this when i try to work!
@Cristi: Thank you for making yourself seen. This is hardly needed at the moment to make players feel supported.
@Kumnaa: WOW!!! Great calculator. Thank you!
yesterday: i fought and the hospital didnt work. Now i have wellness 32.
7. 'Visit hospital' bug solved.
i cant use hospital now because the 24 h pass.
You r funny admins, show me at least one thing in v1 which is working good pls. V1 is one BIG BUG, really dont know how u decided to public this version. Im getting more and more angry with every mouse click on this site. Do something real. Food doesnt work, house doesnt work, trivia sometimes works, should i say thx?? Its damn joke u know that? U have time to fix this BIG BUG to the moment when my citizen dies, if not BYE!
When we can receive gifts?
I hated economy questions for two reasons. First, questions and answers were usually too long for trivia. Second, terminology was quite different from my native language so few erroneous answers came from there. As a trivia that didn't work.
However, I love those history questions and military questions like who's nickname is Ike.
I want to thank for the effort admins have put in V1. Layout is much better. I love the fact that money isn't shown unless it is absolutely necessary and menus are simpler than before. With simple structure there isn't so many loop backs as in beta.
One thing bothers me tough, sluggish speed. I know admins are aware of speed issue, but I think that is the thing affecting quality of game play. Of course critical blocker bugs are more important like some people can't work.
Thank you for the good game so far. I am happy to see how fast bug fixes are coming up.
The inventory from beta is still missing. It would be nice to know if it is going to be returned to or compensated somehow or something? I haven't seen any conclusive comments anywhere from the development team or their representatives about this matter. So the question is that is the old inventory lost or can it be returned? If it can, is this a how high priority on the fix list?
Some people complain that trivia doesn't work. My trivia has failed me twice and I work and train every day.
I just wonder if some questions are bugged or is the bug depending on browser settings? Which browser(s) do you use if your trivia fails all the time?
I use Firefox 3.
and who give me back the wellness I cannot received yesterday because the hospital bug?
I want to thank the admins for removing economy questions. But, in my opinion, this is not enough.
Please, let us decide whether we need quizzes or not. In our forums I offered twice to make an official poll and give a link to it in the main page.
and who give me back the wellness I cannot received yesterday because the hospital bug?
Work still doesn't work! AGAIN! I already lost one day's working to bugs, now it looks like I lose one again!
THIS GAME IS A ONE BIG BUG:
- food doesn't increase wellness,
- house doesn't increase it,
- hostpital neither (today "heal" button disappeared... yesterday it didn't work, today it's gone...)
Nice guys! I am waiting for next "useful" tips about the game...
"1. Change residence - now you can move to any region, even if it is conquered by another country."
This is a fixed BUG or it is a new RULE ?
Please make possible for the companies to relocate in other regions and countries.
I also liked the economy questions... seriously, they were the best questions... and I can't seriously believe the explanation is: "because they were difficult"... what's that supposed to mean? That the remaining questions are EASY?
Like everybody said, random questions about random small places or local people are NOT easy... more than 90% of the work questions I answered correctly were economy ones, I guess... and I'm sure many of us would agree. I understand that some of the people might find economy questions hard (and I'm not saying myself that they were easy), but seriously, surely these people would also find the other questions hard, no? So far I haven't seen anybody say: "Good thing the economy questions were removed, they were the only difficult ones."
The idea that the geography and history questions (most often about places I know absolutely nothing about (seriously, why would I know the history of some random African country circa 1920-1940 if I'm not a history buff/major)) are easier than economy questions is laughable at best, entirely ridiculous at worst.
For all who are following the submission bug. I was able to successfully submit my work trivia answers and received my bonus.
Yes allow companies to move, it is essential for Romanian and Hungarian firms, because they have stucked in the other country and can't sell because they are at war. HELP them please.
we'll see the results tomorrow i think. cause all my inventory stays the same as yesterday. if it still remains the same at the end of the day, then we can say all the problems still going on
I got no wellness today neither by my house or food AND hospital bug is still there. Im sorry, but you didnt fix it! try harder.
Why cant we donate the national currency to an organisation? Why must we print money instead? We have money on the countries account, but we still have to print money?
I think this must be changed, maybe implenting an issue money option.

Thanks for the replies again, Cristi. They are very much appreciated by everyone.
simply removed the trivia would be nice ^^
"8. No more economy questions in the Work Trivia."
NO!!
were is the point with wellnes when you ewen cant bye it for gold
I see you have added Quality to the list in the Market area. Any chance you could default the list to all qualities as well like in the beta?
