Options for workplaces

Recall: basics

This is an example of a simple workplace “MY_BUILDING” with a worker of skill “MY_BUILDING_JOB” producing “MY_BUILDING_OUTPUT_RESOURCE” from “MY_BUILDING_INPUT_RESOURCE”:

    myMod:register({
	DataType = "BUILDING_PART",
	Id = "MY_BUILDING_PART",
	Mover = { DataType = "BUILDING_PART_MOVER_INSTANCE" },
	ConstructorData = {
		DataType = "BUILDING_CONSTRUCTOR_DEFAULT",
		CoreObjectPrefab = "MY_BUILDING_PREFAB"
	},
	AssetBuildingFunction = "MY_BUILDING_FUNCTION"
    })
 
    myMod:register({
		DataType = "BUILDING_FUNCTION_WORKPLACE",
                Id = "MY_BUILDING_FUNCTION",
		WorkerCapacity = 1,
                RelatedJob = { Job = "MY_BUILDING_JOB", Behavior = "WORK_BEHAVIOR" },
                InputInventoryCapacity = {
			{ Resource = "MY_BUILDING_INPUT_RESOURCE", Quantity = 10 }
                },
                ResourceListNeeded = {
			{ Resource = "MY_BUILDING_INPUT_RESOURCE", Quantity = 1 }
                },
                ResourceProduced = {
			{ Resource = "MY_BUILDING_OUTPUT_RESOURCE", Quantity = 1 }
                }
    })

Same building for producing and selling

This is an example of a simple workplace “MY_BUILDING” with a worker “MY_BUILDING_JOB” producing and selling “MY_BUILDING_OUTPUT_RESOURCE” of type “MY_RESOURCE_TYPE” (see RESOURCE_TYPE) from “MY_BUILDING_INPUT_RESOURCE”:

    myMod:register({
	DataType = "BUILDING_PART",
	Id = "MY_BUILDING_PART",
	Mover = { DataType = "BUILDING_PART_MOVER_INSTANCE" },
	ConstructorData = {
		DataType = "BUILDING_CONSTRUCTOR_DEFAULT",
		CoreObjectPrefab = "MY_BUILDING_PREFAB"
	},
	AssetBuildingFunction = "MY_BUILDING_FUNCTION"
    })
 
    myMod:register({
		DataType = "BUILDING_FUNCTION_MARKET",
                Id = "MY_BUILDING_FUNCTION",
                TypeList = { "MY_RESOURCE_TYPE" },
		WorkerCapacity = 1,
                RelatedJob = { Job = "MY_BUILDING_JOB", Behavior = "WORK_BEHAVIOR" },
                InputInventoryCapacity = {
			{ Resource = "MY_BUILDING_INPUT_RESOURCE", Quantity = 10 }
                },
                ResourceListNeeded = {
			{ Resource = "MY_BUILDING_INPUT_RESOURCE", Quantity = 1 }
                },
                ResourceProduced = {
			{ Resource = "MY_BUILDING_OUTPUT_RESOURCE", Quantity = 1 }
                }
    })

Workplace with several recipes

Workplace with 2 recipes:

1) produces “MY_BUILDING_OUTPUT_RESOURCE_1” from “MY_BUILDING_INPUT_RESOURCE_1”,

2) produces “MY_BUILDING_OUTPUT_RESOURCE_2” from “MY_BUILDING_INPUT_RESOURCE_2”:

myMod:register({
	DataType = "BUILDING_PART",
	Id = "MY_BUILDING_PART",
	Mover = { DataType = "BUILDING_PART_MOVER_INSTANCE" },
	ConstructorData = {
		DataType = "BUILDING_CONSTRUCTOR_DEFAULT",
		CoreObjectPrefab = "MY_BUILDING_PREFAB"
	},
        AuthorizedFunctionList = "MY_BUILDING_FUNCTION_LIST"
})
 
myMod:register({
		DataType = "BUILDING_FUNCTION_LIST",
                Id = "MY_BUILDING_FUNCTION_LIST",
                AssetFunctionList = {
                        "MY_BUILDING_RECIPE_1_FUNCTION",
                        "MY_BUILDING_RECIPE_2_FUNCTION"
                }
})
 
myMod:register({
		DataType = "BUILDING_FUNCTION_WORKPLACE",
                Id = "MY_BUILDING_RECIPE_1_FUNCTION",
                IsOverrideCapacity = true,
                CapacityPerSlot = 50,
		WorkerCapacity = 1,
                RelatedJob = { Job = "MY_BUILDING_JOB", Behavior = "WORK_BEHAVIOR" },
                InputInventoryCapacity = {
			{ Resource = "MY_BUILDING_INPUT_RESOURCE_1", Quantity = 50 }
                },
                ResourceListNeeded = {
                	{ Resource = "MY_BUILDING_INPUT_RESOURCE_1", Quantity = 1 }
                },
                ResourceProduced = {
			{ Resource = "MY_BUILDING_OUTPUT_RESOURCE_1", Quantity = 1 }
                }
})
 
myMod:register({
		DataType = "BUILDING_FUNCTION_WORKPLACE",
                Id = "MY_BUILDING_RECIPE_2_FUNCTION",
                IsOverrideCapacity = true,
                CapacityPerSlot = 20,
		WorkerCapacity = 1,
                RelatedJob = { Job = "MY_BUILDING_JOB", Behavior = "WORK_BEHAVIOR" },
                InputInventoryCapacity = {
			{ Resource = "MY_BUILDING_INPUT_RESOURCE_2", Quantity = 20 }
                },
                ResourceListNeeded = {
                	{ Resource = "MY_BUILDING_INPUT_RESOURCE_2", Quantity = 1 }
                },
                ResourceProduced = {
			{ Resource = "MY_BUILDING_OUTPUT_RESOURCE_2", Quantity = 1 }
                }
})

Note: The IsOverrideCapacity is mandatory to have different CapacityPerSlot per recipe.

Several workplaces per building

I didn't succeed. The only way is to have a monument with different buildingParts, each one having its workplace.

Custom soldier's keep

Waiting for the next game upgrade.
