Description:

Sick of trade prices only being dependant on your colonists’ charm?
Tired of the distinct lack of tariffs based on arbitrary nonsense logic and reason?
Diplomatic Tariffs is just what you’ve always wanted, and just in time to buy those human leather hats for Christmas!

Diplomatic Tariffs implements a very smartly intelligently designed concept of an algorithm to change trade tariffs based on nothing whatsoever complex interpersonal and global economic market dynamics.

  • Tariffs change when traders leave your map, and can range from 0 – 50% on both buy and sell prices.
  • Gifting items will probably result in lower tariffs.
  • Refusing to engage in the free flow of commerce when a trader arrives will always result in a tariff increase. After all, they came all the way to see you and it would just be plain rude not to do some trading with them.
  • Factions over 75 goodwill won’t charge tariffs. (Toggleable)
  • Over 50 very well reasoned justifications for tariff changes.

Save game compatible.
Extremely lightweight – zero performance impact.
Works with normal caravans if Vanilla Trading Expanded installed.

Please do not argue about real world politics in the comments – this is just a silly mod to make gameplay more difficult and I don’t wanna have to moderate a comments section 😭
