In a couple games now, I've had a problem where I lose gold every turn. However, when I hover over the treasury icon at the top of the screen, it says i'm MAKING gold - positive gold. Yet every turn, the treasury goes down. So either there's some hidden expenses that aren't being counted, or there's a bug somewhere. :/
If you can provide a savegame showing this, the devs should be able to check it out.
I had too many units in cities and I was losing gold every turn (this was in the campaign). The city screens give you little information about this really -- the stats are so poor right now in Elemental (or are hidden somewhere).
Anyway, I went to each city, dismissed armies, and before I knew it, I had tons of gold again.
Not saying this is your problem, but that was mine.
Last thing: Outside of running out of cash, there was no other side effect that I could see. People weren't dying in the cities, bill collectors weren't shutting down business, etc.
I'll try and find one later kryo - but it happened in two separate games, late-game...6-7 cities, lots of units, etc. I think something isn't calculating right.
I have the same issue. It seems like the economy treaty gold does not cash in.
Edit
Loading the save right after starting Elemental from the desktop it shows like ~40Gildar+ on Mouseover. Loading it up after I loaded a different save it shows like ~2Gildar+ on mouseover. Looking in the Empire Screen it should been 40+ each turn. The difference can be explained with the economy treaties. Thats the amount of cash I am missing.

That should be fixed for the next update now. Thanks for your report.
