Posted on Apr 13, 2012 I'm wondering what the relationship is here as pertains to my Farmer's Market?My knowledge of econ is about nil (thus my interest in this game). I'm guessing I should be shooting for 100% demand met? I try to adjust my sales prices to meet this goal and have had over 100% demand met at times. Tell me this is a good thing? Any and all advice on this subject is appreciated. |

Posted on Apr 13, 2012 My understanding of it demand % is the current world demand that has been met. So if Demand is 80.00% there is a demand for 20% more needed. When it becomes over 100% it means more is being sold than the public wants. This means less sales.You can see the formula used on the 5th post at: http://www.ratjoy.com/forum/topic/a-single-place-for-all-rev ealed-formulas/ We appear to be using the formula with the demand_eq factored in as well. |

Posted on Apr 13, 2012 Thanks Billy! That is exactly the kind of information I was needing. Demand met is not a store specific number, but a global number! So, when that specific number floats above 100% then the sales price might need to be adjusted downwards to accomodate the surplus sales elsewhere. I'm learning. Thanks, again.

Posted on Apr 13, 2012 It should be noted that the demand met % "resets" every day. I know that fruits go from 130% to around 80-90% at the reset.

Posted on Apr 13, 2012 Ah, so I haven't done a excel tracking sheet, but fluctuation varies (constantly? consistently?)over a 24-hour cycle?

Posted on Apr 13, 2012 Paul I will have to look at that and see if I notice it as well, as of now I have not noticed it.The fluctuation is done consistently from what I can tell. It depends on a number of variables from what I have shown you: K = Standard variable that allows for manual tweaking of the item Total_Building_size = (I assume) Total building size in world Q_avg = The average quality of item in world Product_Base_Value = Product's base value Product_Avg_Price = Product's average price in the world These variables change by the second so you see the values go up / down |

Posted on Apr 13, 2012 Well, I haven't looked at it in detail. I know demand updates every tick but it isn't in big increments (for fruit it is in the hundreds). So I assume there's an adjustment at the reset.
