Explanation of the bot farming strategy in the discord: https://discord.com/channels/1359946986937258015/1359949371956789289/1460928540575928478
"the result is that a player can build unlimited factories for 125 000 gold discount, trade with themselves with each train being worth 50 000 gold. First the 25 000 for neutral trade and then another 25 000 when the bot is harvested."
"If you have a minute and ally people around you it should be trivial to get 10 of both cities and factories for 1.25mil"
