The marketplace is a residential location. It provides the mechanism to supply burgage plots.

Use

The marketplace is free to place. It uses the flexible plot system. Stall places are visible during placement. It does not require construction time. Multiple marketplaces can exist, although if this is the case, it is not known if the location or capacity of each marketplace affects the process of setting up stalls.

Once placed, a few families employed at building types with a stall will come here to setup a stall. The stall types are fuel, food, and clothing. These families can be assigned to resource production buildings or storage buildings like the granary to distribute food, or the storehouse which can provide firewood. This will not typically be all the families assigned to that building, just one or two. Each family that operates a marketplace stall takes up one space.

Each stall can hold 50 generic storage or 50 pantry storage for distribution. They will all distribute their resources to nearby burgage plots and additionally in the case of fuel, any extra buildings that also require fuel. Sometimes family members will visit the marketplace and do a "peddling" action at the stall. There can also be various voices heard advertising goods or discussing the sales of items, but this appears to be mainly for flavor and atmospheric reasons rather than having a gameplay purpose.

Supplying burgage plot residents well with a varied selection of resources increases approval. By contrast, if there are not enough resources to fully supply all plots, those closest to the market location will get served first.
