+The presence of [[Resource Sources]] in games encourage [[Stimulated Planning]] for players to the degree that they have need for those [[Resources]]. They can also lead to [[Resource Management]] if the sources can be manipulated, protected from other agents, or be created by the players themselves.

-This pattern is a still a stub.
+Resources are a typical component of games. [[Resource Sources]] are places in game worlds or abstract repositories for resources that allow players to gather, manipulate, or otherwise access them through actions.
 === Examples ===
+The place where fruits appear in [[Pac-Man]] is a [[Resource Sources|Resource Source]] to the degree that these fruits are resources. In many [[:Category:Roleplaying Games|Roleplaying Games]], both tabletop and computerized, killed enemies are [[Resource Sources]] for experience points and various types of loot. The squares or hexes in the [[Civilization (video game) series|Civilization series]] can contain resources that are either strategic (e.g. iron, coal, horses) or luxury (e.g. gold, spices, silk) in nature. Similarly, the [[Starcraft series]] and [[Warcraft series]] have locations where resources can be harvested from the game world.

+Examples of [[Resource Sources]] include [[Pick-Ups]], [[Resource Locations]], and other players when [[Trading]] with them is possible. [[Loot]] provided from [[Enemies]], [[Inhabitants]], or [[Non-Player Characters]] are also typical [[Resource Sources]].
