Thanks to @Kol, @Katana, @Argent, @Massimo, @Dyrianne, @Dragon, @Argyle and @Roak for their donations. This update includes a reduction in travel penalties, an increase in range and an increase in the number of market offers available with Bartering at level 0.
Travel and range changes
I have reduced the impact of carried weight from 25 to 20. I have also reduced the slowdown effect of the simple cart from -20 km/h to -12 km/h. Thanks @Holy.
I have changed the base operating range of the light cart from 5 km to 7.5 km, which means that the players will require less travel to access certain locations. The long distances between the marble quarry and the players located in cities far from the quarry made it difficult for those players to compete with the other players in the game; however, the change to the base operating range of the light cart has significantly reduced the disadvantage that those players experienced.
In addition, I increased the base scanning range from 2x to 3x.
Market changes
I increased the number of market offers that can be placed with the Bartering skill at level 0 from 10 to 30. The cap on sales offers was implemented to curb the influence of "whales" in the market but it has had a stifling effect on the market and even hindered the progression of characters during the early stages of the game.
