I'm kinda wary of answering "what do you do if villain is unknown" because it's kind of a very clever way of asking "what's the 'standard' play here," which you're smart enough to realize is a question that won't be liked by people who play poker like it's poker instead of playing it like blackjack where everything's standard.
Anyway, if villain is continuing to 3b's with worse, then I'm 3b'ing preflop for value. If he's folding everything worse, but is opening the button such a massive percentage that folding everything worse means that we're printing money 3b'ing ATC preflop, then we have some decisions to make about how to play our range: we basically want to flat everything that's 0eV or better, 3b the best hands we can't flat profitably preflop (the "best" hands is dependent on how villain reacts to 3b's and how many of those hands we 3b is dependent on how much we can "get away with" before we make it so that villain makes adjustments that are bad for us; note: "bad for us" is a relative term, as villain simply 4b'ing a ton can be a good adjustment for us if it means we can anticipate this adjustment and start 3b/shoving 22+, AJ+, but usually pre-re-adjustments are difficult for both timing and predicting how they will adjust).
^Simplifying it any more than that is really sacrificing the proper answer for the sake of facilitating robot poker.
