Just to make sure that we won't be crossing wires on terminology here: Each tribe has a "preciousness" value for each ware type, so it's not individual wares at all. Of course, having a second "preciousness" concept according to how much the economy needs it would be the "something smart" option, and I wouldn't be against that. Edited: 2018-08-26, 11:55

@GunChleoc You are right, we use the term "preciousness" differently. The existing "preciousness" per ware per tribe is an arbitrary hard-coded number of questionable value at best (mainly to help AI), while my concept of "preciousness" is a priority-like number calculated in real time (its main input factors being demand, offer and time).

Regarding the exit order when multiple wares are marked for exit I would not use preciousness. I would summarize the amount of each ware in all other warehouses and would then start with the lowest amount, cause this might be the most valuable ware to save from the enemy or to use in different places.

@hessenfarmer You are basically suggesting a wider real-time calculation of preciousness, based on ware-type's rareness. I still believe that rareness is not the most accurate factor. Of course it's much better than current arbitrary order. Top Quote |

Having a good formula for this would be great Busy indexing nil values Top Quote |

Ok. I see, it would be nice to have a better order there indeed, but I also think that it is a low priority bug. First I had thought that you mean the order of wares which leave the warehouse in the other case. Wanted to save the world, then I got widetracked Top Quote |

No single formula can accurately calculate real-time preciousness. But the wallet-model can. Top Quote |
