Trade... anybody else?

[Shadowone]

I've traveled a lonely road, the road of TRADING. I found that trading was not very lucrative, but instead of spining in circles around cities to find enemies to kill, i rather go from town to town, thus making a little extra money on the side.

But, I was wondering on what the hell is the trading "goods" respawn are based on? Is it redone by day? by week? It dosent seem constant, and is a bit ridiculously low in some cases. Like the town of Kalahek (or whatever it is) that makes Velvet. And the Town of Kulga, that makes Spices. For Kulga, i do admit to have seen 5 bags of spices (WOW) at oncee. But for the Velvet , the highest amount i've seen to buy, is 3?!?! I dunno, but it seems a bit low no? While in towns that don't "produce it" I've seen as much as 4.

Is this features so faded in the back, that im wasting my time to talk about it? Niways, Just wanted to add my two cents on trading. Since nobody ever seemed to have moded that aspect of the game.

Items respawn every day based on price, with more expensive items having less chance to appear than than cheaper items, and in lesser quantities.

It makes sense for velvet to spawn much less than spice. Compare the price for a weight of spice in the middle ages to the price for the same weight of velvet. Velvet has to be made, dyed, woven, whatever. Spice is picked, crushed, whatever. Guess which is more skilled labor.

Trade is a requisite in this game (to begin with, I guess), although once I built several small armies it became clear that the spoils of war can be very lucrative. For the record I voted Yes even if in a limited capacity.
