[.90] AI trades special resources too cheaply

Issue:  AI perceived value of on-planet special resources seems too low.

Example:  

  • Trading w Terrans, total mods are ++- so a net +
  • I asked for two Harmony Crystals
  • Offer pure cash, AI only wants 501

At 499 early game they seem appropriately priced to me. I do think that the value of these should scale some. Possibly based upon their value to a player in potential bonus over time. If that makes any sense.

Yea but in addition to selling me a resource they also gave me a spot on their planet. How much is a tile location worth?  Quite a bit to me, at least.  I'd rather scrap the resource and build a factory than sell it to someone Cheaply. 

 

Also so note the 500c price was for TWO harmony crystals, not just one.
