Improving the trading mechanic.

One catch with trading is that you have got to make it possible for the AI in a game to do. Something that works for a player but not for the AI breaks the game. If I remember correctly AoE2 did/ allowed trader spam because it was the only way for the AI to get income late because the AI was worse at finding and securing remote mineable resources than a human player. I forget where I read that though.

AI coding is something you shouldn't consider. If the AI can't use it just make a small workaround. I.e. make AI receive +50 silver/minute on their resources (or more depending on difficulty) when they have build a market. It's easy and does not affect "real" players.
