Does this bot program look for market conditions like "price stability" or the volume of the resource(s) at the best prices?

 Appears there is a narrow difference between each prices at which prospective purchasers are willing to "buy" and which sellers were willing to "sell".

Can you provide a bit of an in-depth explanation as to what "active/actively" means in specific. Thanks. Neat mod.

Technologies:
Higher priority for those that give a bonus to the gatherer (stone and metal moved to phase 1) and a few others (house population, new technologies and forge).

 

 

Market Price Search:
Several parameters are taken into account when selecting an item to “buy”.

1. The amount of available resource (which is selected for “sale”).
The more available, the lower the buying price can be.
Example:
if available
100 - rate  90
500 - rate 75
1000 - rate 60

2. Resources are infinite or not.
New resources and food in the game are infinite, so when bartering them for resources that are finite, the rates are set to lower values.
Conversely, if a resource is finite, the rate for selling it is set to a higher level.

For example, the base rate is set to 80:
When bartering 100 metal for food, the rate is set to 80+10. Thus, bartering is done if the price of food is greater than 90.
When bartering 100 food for metal, the rate is set to 80-20. In this case, barter is performed if the price of metal is greater than 60.

3. Uniqueness of the Resource
Coins have an increased base rate 165. It is bartered when there are high price spikes in the Market.

 

The activity of the barters has been increased by changing some restrictions.
For example, in the base version of the game, bartering is allowed if more than 500 resources are available. In the mod this parameter is reduced to 100.
