Turn the native Farmland screen into a living, volatile property market where land availability, prices, NPC loyalty and auctions change every day.
Land is no longer permanently available simply because you have enough money. Every midnight, Savage Farmland Market generates a new market with fresh opportunities, temporary locks, premium prices, rare discounted listings and high-risk auctions.
IMPORTANT: AUCTION THINKING PAUSE
After every player bid, there is an intentional random pause of approximately 1.8 to 5 seconds before the NPC bidders respond. The game has not frozen and the auction is not broken. This pause represents the NPC bidders considering their next move. Wait for the next counteroffer or the winning result and do not repeatedly press the auction button while they are thinking.
DAILY RNG MARKET
– Every midnight, the complete land market is regenerated automatically.
– Between 60% and 95% of all eligible native farmlands becomes temporarily locked.
– Purchased land remains protected, but still counts toward the map-wide calculation.
– Available land receives a stable daily premium above the map’s original value.
– Prices, availability and requirements remain unchanged until the next midnight roll.
– The complete daily market state is saved with your career.
NPC LOYALTY AND MISSIONS
– Standard listings require a random 1 to 5 completed jobs for the NPC seller.
– Rare gold limited offers require a random 1 to 10 completed jobs.
– Limited offers receive an additional Savage discount.
– Required job progress is consumed after purchasing the land, so the mission system remains useful throughout the savegame.
– The mod keeps its own NPC job history and also supports Better Contracts.
– When Better Contracts is installed, its loyalty discount can stack with standard and gold limited listings.
SAVAGE AUCTIONS
– Between 5% and 15% of the currently locked land becomes purple auction land.
– Opening bids begin at only 45% to 75% of the original map value, not the inflated daily Savage price.
– Every auction generates 1 to 5 named NPC bidders.
– NPC maximum budgets remain hidden.
– The auction secretly receives one of three moods: Cold Room, Competitive Floor or Bidding War.
– Auctions can last between 3 and 8 rounds.
– Every player or NPC bid increases by a random 3% to 8%, with a minimum increase of 5,000 EUR.
– Every time an NPC successfully outbids you, a random failed-bid fee between 5,000 and 25,000 EUR is charged immediately.
– The dialog shows the exact latest fee and your total losses for the current auction.
– Withdrawing does not charge a second fee on top of the failed-bid fees already paid.
– Better Contracts discounts and loyalty consumption are intentionally disabled during auctions.
