should always be reasonably available from the natives, but they have few
manufactured goods, thus maximizing the opportunity to trade profitably.
Food is a bit trickier --- we want a lot on hard difficulties and less on
easy ones, and thus far that is mainly regulated by the tile production
variations. However, we have complaints in both directions --- too many
and too few natives, so I am not particularly concerned here.
BTW, thanks for the work on BR#2580. I am glad to see that fixed before
the release. Speaking of which, play testing time has been somewhat
limited, but now we have a long weekend so I hope to track down a couple
of remaining things I wanted to check. If that goes well, I propose to
work on the release next weekend.
Cheers,
