KEY FEATURES:
- Market construction available from Phase 1
- Limited resources for bartering
- Dynamic market with traders (not players).- The price of resources depends on the amount of resources on the Market and the base volume.
MARKET MECHANISM:AVAILABLE RESOURCES (250 at the start)
- Resources available on the Market
- Gradually increase depending on the actions of traders and players
BASE VOLUME (initial: 250)
- Market volume grows by 1-7% every few seconds.
- Price dynamics:
- If the available resource on the Market is less than this value, the purchase price increases.
- If there is more of the resource, the purchase price decreases.
MINIMUM QUANTITY (initial: 100)
- Players can buy up to this threshold
- Maximum purchase = Available - Minimum
- Increases by 0.25% when the base volume increases by 1%
EXAMPLE:
Wood available: 1000
Minimum: 700
Can buy: only 300 wood
TRADERS:
SMALL TRADERS
- Frequency: every few seconds
- Action: add 5-50 units to one or more resources (increase available resources)
MEDIUM TRADERS
- Frequency: less often than small traders
- Action: add resources and make barters(The amount of resources added is 5 times higher than that of small traders)
LARGE TRADERS (balancers)
- Frequency: every few minutes
- Eliminate imbalances between resources. If there is too much of one resource and too little of another, these resources will be equalized.

Mod update:
Added detailed description in the first post.
Technologies for researching Phase 2 and 3 gradually increase the characteristics of units(resource gathering speed, attack, defense, etc.).
CivCenters can be build closer together. The minimum distance has been reduced from 200 to 120.
Rebalancing of siege units.
The Arsenal is available from phase 1, but it takes much longer to build.
Rams are available from phase 1, but they take longer to recruit and have lower stats.
When moving to the next phase, the construction time for the Arsenal is reduced, and the stats of the Rams are increased.
Capture is only possible for Rams, as these units are available to all factions.
Other siege units on phase 3. -

With certain settings, the bot can reach up to 200 units in 11-12 minutes of play.

Note:
The mod has been tested on version R29 for developers, but should be compatible with A27 and R28.
Description:
Adds 21 ranks for Support Units.
When a certain amount of resources is gathered, the unit's rank increases.
Each subsequent rank improves the overall gathering speed for all resources.
The bonus and the amount of resources required grows exponentially.
Example:Rank Bonus Amount of resources required for improvement
2 +1% 30
3 +3% 45
...21 +200% (approximately 15 minutes when gathering fruit, for other resources it takes 2 or more times longer).
Ranks are not displayed in the unit interface, only the change in gathering speed.

Noticing an issue with this bot; on lower difficulties, (specifically I'm playing on Very Easy at the moment), I get spam in the logs which says "warning: Invalid command: Can't train 0 units" once Markets are built. This issue doesn't appear to happen on higher difficulties.
UPDATE: Version 0.7.6
Fixed a bug when recruiting units on the very easy difficulty setting.-

Replay of me playing the Petra Expert Medium on Mainland. No major bugs, but the bot did throw most of it's units away on the first push. Maybe it's harder when the bot is set to Defensive?
I've even played badly, didn't utilize most of the Roman benefits.
In the replay, the difficulty level is set to Medium, and the behavior is Balanced.
These settings have limits on the number of units (for example, gain 140 units and stop despite the maximum limit), they can also limit building, technology and the number of units in the rush.
The mod is tested on Very Hard, the behavior is Aggressive.
A map with a low amount of resources also affects the bot's play.
-
UPDATE: Version 0.7.4
When retreating, support units will enter the garrison if there are relevant buildings nearby.
After building a Temple, the bot will recruit 5 Healers and add them to rush groups, etc.
Added individual queues for Siege units and Elephants. As soon as these units become available, they will be recruited with higher priority.
Reduced conditions for moving to the next phase and building a second Civ Center.

@mod_3d, when will the most up-to-date version be available on mod.io?
Also, the 0.7.3 version has a bug on most standard maps. The AI will not make a house and get pop-blocked forever.
Mod updated. If there are no critical bugs, I will send for verification on mod.io after some time.
On what maps and game settings do not build houses? -
UPDATE: Version 0.7.3
Changes:
Fixed a bug with recruiting Champions
Fixed a bug with recruiting Support units, set the limit to 50.
Added recruitment of Cavalry and Infantry at the start of the game for more defense against early rushes.PETRA_Expert vs Base PETRA

UPDATE: Version 0.8.2
- The price update interval on the Market was increased from 7 to 10 seconds.
- Barter has 10 times less influence on the change of prices for resources. Thus, reverse barter deals aimed at raising or lowering prices will be unprofitable for the player.
At the same time, players have the opportunity to:
1. make highly efficient barters during price jumps.
2. barter resources on roughly equal terms with other players.Examples of prices at the start of 2 games

UPDATE: Version 0.8.1
After loading the mod, an assistant window will be displayed.
Added tabs with description of changes, etc.
The unit and building maintenance system is still being tested and may be unbalanced!
At the beginning of the game players may see a quick increase in coins, but in the middle or end of the game, when there are a lot of military units on the map, the increase may be negative.
Main ways to get coins:
1.Economic buildings and auxiliary units
Resource is generated every second
2.Barter on the market
Main spending:
1.Reciting units and constructing buildings.
2.Military units and buildings consume resources in large quantities.
The cost of maintenance is displayed in the cards

UPDATE: Version 0.7.1
Disabled debugging.
Fixed a bug when recruiting a large number of support units. The number would be around 60. -

Hi, I downloaded version 7 of your bot and test played it against Petra on very hard random settings. A few observations:
- The bot makes all women in the early stage, up to a third of its population. This gave the bot very good eco compared to Petra but very weak against rushes.
- The bot still makes the same mistakes of using women to mine and infantry to farm.
- The bot loves cavalry and its eco is mainly cavalry focused.
- The bot wins against Petra but with a very low KD.
- Dropsites are not placed close enough to the resources.
Point one can be improved by changing the target number of females. Normally, in a 200 pop game, 55-60 women is the sweet spot. Even in 300 pop games, assuming you use all women to farm, no more than 65 women is necessary from my experience.
Point 4 is a result of point 1: the bot always fights outnumbered battles.
Point 5 can be improved by decreasing the maximum acceptable distance between res and dropsite.
Hi!
Do you have additional mods installed?
The map and its settings can also make a difference (if the player bases are too close it can change the behavior settings).
Screenshots with game and map settings for 200 units and 300 starting resources. If you get different results when playing the game, a save or screenshots may help to understand the reasons. First rush of basic Petra at 8min.1. On Screenshot 50 support units for 13min. If you get more when testing, it could be due to:
a) other mods or game settings.
b) the number of units is less than 50, but a large batch size is selected when recruiting.2.
5 support units are gathering wood
5 infantry units are gathering grain.
The units switch one at a time at intervals:
step 1
4 support and 1 infantry wood
4 infantry and 1 support grain
step 2
3 support and 2 infantry wood
3 infantry and 2 support grain.
etc.
Full switching may take some time3. On the screenshots by 8min 0 cavalry.
4. Example screenshots with unit graphs at 5 and 8+ min.
With the mod, at 8+ minutes into the game, the infantry count is 2x higher than the base Petra.
5. No changes have been made to Dropsites, if there is a lot of fruit in the starting area it will increase unit movement as only one farm is built and mostly on the edge of the influence area not considering the location of these resources.

Posted
In this update, siege units remain unchanged.
Mod update:
Added detailed description in the first post.
Elephants are available from phase 1, but their characteristics are significantly reduced.
When moving to the next phase, the parameters improve (similar to the Arsenal and Ram).
Auras have been added for some buildings.
Now, the construction of Barracks, Stables, CivCentres, and Wonders will give bonuses.
