What are your thoughts on trading in OHOL? There is currently no reason to trade, mainly because everything is shared, cities get deleted after everyone abandons them, so there isn't a capital city that could benefit from trading, there isn't any form of general currency (food is the most valuable thing in the game, but it's a hussle to carry a lot of food, and people can just take it before you have a chance to sell it for a hat). Caravaning was partially added, but with cities disappearing, there is simply no reason to build road networks and import/export resources, because half of the road can disappear before you get there. I think to implement trading or just resource transporting, you have to cluster a lot of resources together, so people have a reason to make a caravan and get a lot of milkweed/gold/iron/stone/clay...
