Markets
Goods traded at markets, their base prices and the market rules.
Times are game time at world speed 1. On a faster world divide them by its speed.
Mid price = base x (target stock / stock) ^ 0.8, kept between 0.25x and 4x base. Buyers pay 8% over the mid price and sellers get 8% under it. The target stock of 1,500 is scaled by how productive the market's biome is for the good.
Goods
Prices are gold per unit.
