Farm Management System

AI Ville’s Farm Management System

Farm management is one of the core gameplay elements of AI Ville. Players can operate farms, manage resources, and trade with AI characters, establishing their own agricultural empire. AI characters actively participate in this ecosystem, affecting crop prices, supply chains, and trading patterns.

Land and Crop System

• Land Expansion

  • Players can purchase land from AI characters or the market to expand their farm.

  • AI characters can also purchase land, potentially becoming landlords or large-scale agricultural investors.

  • Different types of land have varying fertility and environmental effects, requiring strategic planning from both players and AI characters.

• Crop Cultivation

  • The game includes multiple types of crops (wheat, corn, grapes, etc.), each with unique growth cycles, market prices, and resistance to environmental factors.

  • AI characters determine what to plant based on supply and demand, e.g., if wheat becomes scarce, AI farmers may shift to wheat production.

• Market-Driven Crop Dynamics

  • AI Ville employs a smart market mechanism:

    • If a crop is oversupplied, prices decrease, prompting both players and AI characters to reconsider planting strategies.

    • If an AI character detects a shortage of corn, it may reduce production of other crops and switch to corn farming.

Resource Management

Farm operations require efficient resource management by both players and AI characters.

• Water Resource Management

  • The game features weather events such as droughts and floods, forcing AI characters to adjust irrigation strategies dynamically.

  • If an AI character predicts a drought, it might stockpile water resources and sell them at higher prices, while some may choose to provide water to allies at a discount.

• Labor System

  • Players can hire AI characters for tasks like planting, fertilizing, and harvesting.

  • AI characters may start their own farms, competing with players for land and resources.

• Automated Farming

  • Players can develop smart agriculture by using AI-driven robots to automate farming and increase efficiency.

  • However, AI characters who lose their jobs due to automation might demand higher wages or form AI labor unions.
