Description

Sets the size of population in a subject city.

The second parameter should be true. Otherwise, number of citizens would not be changed, whereas city size and corresponding food consumption etc would be increased.

Example

(from Emigration v.2 mod)

 function movePopulation(fromPlayer, fromCity, toPlayer)
   fromCity:SetPopulation(fromCity:GetPopulation() - 1, true);	--decrease population in a source city
   local toCity = getCityByIndex(toPlayer, Map.Rand(toPlayer:GetNumCities(), "Random city to emigrate to - Lua"));
   if toCity == nil then return end;
   toCity:SetPopulation(toCity:GetPopulation() + 1, true);	--increase population in a destination city	(maybe we can use ChangePopulation(+1) instead?)
   <...>
 end
 function getCityByIndex(player, N)
   local n = 0;
   for city in player:Cities() do
     if (n == N) then
       return city;
     end
     n = n + 1;
   end
 end
