    public interface IWare
extends IAmountable, ITradable
    Interface defining a ware. The ware provides general information on the item it represents. It also provides methods to compute the sell and buy price of the ware based on the available amount. The price computation uses the following constants:
    MAX: the maximum price for the item if it is not available in the market. Here the function has a glitch for the buy price: If no item is available it cannot be sold and the price is therefore 0 (infinity would be logical correct but is not very understandable in the game context).
    MIN: the minimal price of the item if more than SATURATION items are available in the market. As more items are available in the market the price approaches this value asymptoticly.
    SATURATION: amount of items when the the need is fullfilled. If there are more items available in the market than needed all have the MIN price. This is a further simplification because the price normally drops further if there are much more items available. The curve would bee leveling out at SATURATION and then dropping further.
    ABS_MIN: the absolut minimum is the minimal sell price at SATURATION.
       (MAX-MIN)*(MIN+1)
 --------------------- + ABS_MIN
 e^(x*15/(SATURATION*2))+MIN
