Trivia

As the possible outcome of a negotiation cannot be calculated in real time, because it would take forever, here is how it was done:

The first guess is hardcoded (use 5 different goods). From then on all combinations are precalculated in a simulation (takes up to 13 hours depending on the number of goods even with a 9900K and 16 threads). The results are stored in a table. The extension just looks up the best guess depending on which combination of red/green/yellow have been received.

Q: I don't want to use it. Can I turn it off?
A: Of course you can. Just go to the settings and deactivate it.
