The idea of disabling expertise for characters belongs to saffgee
The idea for alternative recipes started here

Profitability adjustment was carried out using tables from here

Also thanks to saffgee and piermario for posting their mod sources on the forum, comparing the settings of the two mods gave some insight into the mechanics of the game
Also thanks to David and the development team for making changes to the AI behavior and fixing bugs that arise
Also special thanks to paulwoman for early feedback and help with some bug fixes
The graphics in the mod are partly taken from one large stock and are free, and partly made by me in Blender 3D
What's included in the mod:
Added apartments 1*1, 3*3, and offices 1*1, 4*4, giga factory, giga farm and giga warehouse
Added new stores (reused graphics of office buildings). Added the ability to sell almost all products in the game, including semi-finished products, etc.

Mining has been reworked, mines allow access to ore. Different ore contains different amounts of certain minerals.
For example, the content of diamonds in precious ore 3 carats for 2000 lbs

Whereas in sea sand the diamond content 1 carats for 7500 lbs

The PRECIOUS mine is the main mine for the extraction and production of precious metals (gold, silver, platinum, precious stones and diamonds). It also makes it possible to produce some other metals, but at a lower margin.
The MIX_ORE mine is the main mine for obtaining metals (vanadium, cobalt, molybdenum, etc.), but also gives access to obtaining precious metals, etc. But the content of precious metals in it is lower than in PRECIOUS ore. Accordingly, the production speed, margin and output per cycle are lower.
Alternative recipes have different margins, production speeds, as well as the amount of finished product in one production run.
By default, the higher the yield of the product, the more profitable the production using this particular recipe and vice versa, the lower the yield of the product, the slower the production speed and the lower the margin
The use of catalysts in some recipes adds the ability to end up with more product than is invested. This is a game mechanic to increase AI interest in certain products.

Also extended Mega Class:: Food. It includes all products from farms.
The mod has been tested on a clean game using the Global Capitalism script.txt. The script contains the basic game difficulty settings (you can configure them here without the game options menu), as well as important starting AI behavior settings that are not available in the game options menu. Also contains basic settings for DLCs. If you run the game without a script it will spawn corporations that are less of a focus for the mod. AI can be passive.
By default, the import of ores through seaports is disabled. For the production of products, you need to buy a mine or buy semi-products from other corporations. This creates a certain interest in the AI to own the mines. If the Experimental DLC makes it possible to purchase ore through import companies, this may lead to an imbalance in the game.
If you encounter any errors while using the DLCs, please let me know.
