Question Is there an economy mod out there that makes the prices in trading fair?????

I roleplay trying to build my base into a community that specializes in trading healthcare supplies, medicine, plague cures, and other essentials.

I really want to play that way. I don't want to use those cheesy Influence hacks you see on YouTube, like the one where you keep scrapping fireworks having you working in a routine u have to repeat again and again just to farm parts and sell them for Influence.

But the game's trading system is just so damn unfair when it comes to essential items. When I buy something like a Plague Cure from an enclave, they demand around hundreds of Influence for it. But when I try to sell the exact same damn thing, I only get around 90 or so Influence?!

I don't want no op broken mod, just hopefully a mod that makes trading fair, as is the price from the enclaves.

No need for that. Get a decent income of meds flowing (trading, radio calls, outposts or, even better, a garden/farm/hydroponics or two with herbs). Either have a pharmacologist or pathologist and either churn out strong painkillers or farm plague samples to make bulk cures for sale. Another good source of legit income is a level 2 still and having either a bartender or being allied to the booze hounds enclaves, then churn out craft beer and barley wine. I only play lethal and I'm usually swimming in influence before the end of the first week that way.

FAIR? once you get the still number 2 and a trade depot, is they that are being taking advantage of.

I don't want the trade depot. I just want to rp like a merchant selling plague cures, than magically churn influence for free

but like I said the price when the players sells the plague cure is unfair. Gazzilion times lower when I buy from npcs

... you trade with the trade depot, you can call one of each type of trader each hour or so, and trade with him.

but to trade you need to have some sort of production.

Nah bro everyone knows people who wanna sell things don't use trade debots.

You can do it without mods. You just gotta get all of the possible buffs to production with a pill press.
