Trade Skills

This mod introduces new trade skills to the naval skill tree which let the player engage in a (simplified) trade mechanic. The player may export or import food and wood in exchange for gold. Building a trading post gives access to corresponding trade policies.

To support these activities the player may build lighthouses and trade ports to increase trade volume as well as a warehouse upgrade to increase storage capacity and supply range.

Trade is conducted against an anonymous market. For each pop level in a city with trading post, 5 units of food/wood/gold are exchanged on a weekly basis. Lighthouses increase this trade volume by 50% and trade ports by another 100%.

During early spring, late autumn and especially during winter, trade will be reduced by seasonal adversities. However, the ship wintering ability will reduce the seasonal impact on trade.

Exporting goods will give a price of 80% in gold, importing will cost 120%. Adopting a trade levy will increase the price of exports and decrease the price of imports, but also decrease trade volume. There will be price fluctuation events that temporarily increase/decrease prices by 20% or 50% so the player may take advantage of these.

Additionally, baggage trains will cost 10 gold /week in maintenance.


DISCLAIMER:
(1) There's a known issue in that the mod can become buggy if you build more than one trade post. Therefore it is recommended to build only one trade post.
(2) If you want to build more, then you either need to play the Mos Maiorum mod instead (where the bug is already fixed) or wait until I find the time to port the fix here.
