AI non-trading in round 12

[grover]

Why do the AIs never trade, at any price, in round 12?  Also -- how are the value of the good determined post round 12 -- if there is a trade in round 12 are the goods valued at that price?

Long time I didn't check the forum. That of "no-trading" in round 12 summary was added in one of the updates to prevent one player giving away all their resources to another player too boost his rank and/or altering the item values by selling them at inflated prices to another player. This has been done before, so they changed it to prevent it and work this way.

A very thoughtful development and eloquently explained by one of our most esteemed members.

2018 will be upon us soon, one wonders what the next great leap will be in AI to herald the beginning of our next five year plan.
