Trading

Evaluate trades using the worker-minute (wm) valuation system. Every item is priced by how much worker time it takes to produce from raw resources. Pick what you'd get and what you'd give, then hit Evaluate.

How It Works

Base Resource Rates

Food — 0.25 wm per unit
Wood — 0.3125 wm per unit
Mineral — 0.3125 wm per unit

Food is cheaper because you can field more farmers (90 max) than woodcutters or miners (30 max each).

Crafted Items

Crafted items are valued by the raw materials they consume plus craft time (1 wm per minute of crafting). The evaluator walks the full recipe chain — including intermediate crafts.
