I thought that maybe it could be a good idea to allow players to be able to sell stock in the resource market, even if the resource is the same one that the port produces.
This might allow some new trade routes and possibilities to work together to keep supplies in ports available instead of sitting at 0.
To prevent abuse, maybe limit the price to only be the same as or +1 more than port price.
I'm not entirely against this idea, however, there is a drawback. If a player produces on a plantation/sawmill/etc. and sells it directly to market, there is a "fixed" price that they earn from the port for producing the resource and selling it to the market. This amount will always be less than what the port sells the resource for. So if the port sell for 10, you selling to the port would be for example 9. You couldn't allow a player to produce the resource and then sell it at 10 from the market. No one would produce to the port.
