Would it be possible, perhaps as another part of the turn summary, to give the player a more detailed account about his income and expenses? It would help the player to see the effects of various decisions, such as which jobs a girl takes on, how good their accomodations are, whether his gangs are auto-supplied with healing potions, etc.
At the moment, the player is pretty much flying blind in that regard.

It would. In fact the code is already in the game. It needs a good debug, but the data capture and report generator should both be there, somewhere. The trouble was that when I did it, I didn't have Dagoth's list columns to line everything up. So I used fixed width fonts and formatted it onto the player screen. The result was ugly, even if I say so myself, and the general response was "kill it with fire".
Still, it shouldn't be too hard to get it all working again, and format it into a proper list view. Though I'd probably recommend logging it all to a SQLite database and generate the reports from that, We get a bit more flexibiliy that way, and it opens the doors for third party analysis apps.
