@ Monkey... Hey, FYI, those are my toes your standing on there. Your half right and half wrong...
Workshop Building :: Takes less then a day, isn't considered an action. ALL ACTIONS are things that require Dice rolls. To build a workshop, inform me on which day you are wanting to set it up, what BUILDING MATERIAL you are using to build it, and naturally when it comes down to the end of the month, where abouts they are so I can add them to the map.
Workshop Materials :: What can you build a Workshop out of you ask? BUILDING MATERIALS!!! Anything thats a Building Material can be used a Workshop construction, especially the DEFAULT buildings from DF, so no not tables Hastur. Perhaps if you have time to think up custom buildings LATER when we have Ironed out the problems from the Default System, then perhaps other things can be used in Workshop constructions...
Decoration :: Decoration is allowed for RP reasons only to be honest. But they don't increase Quality/Price. But adding Decoration adds more TIME to the work being done.
FYI On Hastur's action Lists. :: Hastur has a method that we have agreed on, in fact unless otherwise said, this method is used for everyone. The list of actions is a "This is done until finished" action List, meaning that if it takes a day to do X amount of items and doesn't need to go onto the next day then it goes to next action, but if it DOES need to go onto the next day, The bottom Action is pushed out. And so forth...
@ Kestrel /Time to build a workshop:: Can I ask, WHY do you think you need to spend 2 WHOLE days building a workshop when after three turns I have never spent a WHOLE day building one. Please everyone go back and look at how a Workshop is built. I believe that there you will see HOW Specific I ahve been about it. All I do is this...
Player X's actions.
Day 1: Cut Trees
Day 2: Cut Trees
Day 3: Build Carpenters Workshop
Day 4-5: Use Carpenters
Player X wants a workshop built on day 3, SO... That weeks turn looks something like this...
Treecutting Rolls.
Day1: Blah
Day2: Blah
Erected Carpenters Workshop - Quality Rough - -1 Pine Log
Carpenter Rolls.
Day3-7: USING THE WORKSHOP.
Notice that in the Carpenter Rolls, the first day used IS DAY 3!!!
Another thing to note, is that on Building Farms. Tilling an area is not going to take up a day, I roll a day of plant gathering and put a little more DR to it cause your plowing the field more then looking at the bushes...
