Tradeables (Recources/Items/Upgrades)
Tradeables are Item, Upgrade or Regeneration (this is not to be mixed up with the energy regeneration of the robot). They have an ID, Name, Description, Price, Type and Original Price. Name and Description are needed to make it readable by humans if a player asks the trading service for a list of all items and their prices. All Item have an adjustable price which will be changed be the economy algorithm of the trading service, based on multiple factors such as demand, current round, etc. Resources
Resources can be sold via the trading service. A Resource has ID, Price, Type and OriginalPrice.

Item restrictions#
- You can only buy one special Item per robot per round. This is to reduce price manipulation by a single player. this also includes the max health/energy item.
Robots are being listed as items but there are no limits on how many robots can be bought per round per player. You can buy as many robots as you have money, because the player is purchasing the robot directly and not through a robot.
Upgrades#
Upgrades improve the variables of your robot. For example, a bigger health pool.

Upgrade Restriktion#
There are two restrictions, when it comes to buying upgrades:
You can only buy one
upgradeper robot in one round. The reason for this is that an upgrade is seen as a single action. Just imagine it as giving your car to the shop for a tuning.You can only buy an upgrade to the next level of the variable, you want to improve. For example, you only can upgrade your HEALTH_1 to HEALTH_2.
