NPC trade: change resources into any mix

For 3 Gold the NPC merchant turns all resources in the village into any mix you want. The total stays the same.
  1. Open NPC trade on the Plus & Gold page or in the Marketplace.
  2. Type the amounts you want of each resource. The "Rest" counter shows what is left to assign.
  3. "Distribute" spreads the rest. Anything you do not assign is spread over your mix, so nothing is lost.
  4. Confirm. It costs 3 Gold.

No amount can be above your storage.

What works best
  • Use it to finish an expensive building now instead of waiting for one resource.
  • Turn extra crop into iron for troops.
