Commodities

Commodities are items which, when combined with labor in a shoppe or stall, produce other items used in-game.

Raw commodities can be purchased at commodities markets via the bid ticket system, pillaged from merchant brigands, or simply be bought by setting a competitive buy price in the shop or stall, and waiting for either merchant brigands or players to sell these to the shop or stall. Refined commodities are manufactured from raw commodities at stalls or shoppes; these can be further processed into different commodities. Finished commodities have completed the manufacturing process and are ready for delivery.

Commodities cannot be held in a pirate's personal inventory. They may be stored only in a pirate's shoppe, stall, or ships, and may only be moved from island to island in the hold of a ship.
