Template:Buildingbox

Mine

Can only be placed on coal and ore veins. Digs up copper ore and coal.

Overview

This template should be used for all production, service, gathering, farming, and collecting buildings on the wiki—that is, any building with a recipe (not Hearths, Warehouses, or Housing). The template requires only the name parameter, which tells the code behind the scenes which building you want an infobox for.

In the future, this template could be augmented to automatically create page categories based on the information retrieved. For example, the infobox for the Cookhouse could add categories for food production, complex food, crafting materials, large buildings, or even 2-star buildings.

Parameters

Only the first, name is required, and it must be spelled correctly to match the in-game name of the building. Other parameters are optional, but add to the value of displaying the infobox.

Parameter	Type	Description
name	string	Required. The in-game name of the building for which you want to display the infobox. Will also serve as the header of the box.
purpose	string	The overall purpose of the building, such as "Services" or omit this parameter. For example, if the purpose is "Industry," the infobox will already show "Industry" for the building's Category, so you may omit it.
species_preference	string	For buildings that provide services consumed by villagers, you may write which species prefers these services. For example, Leisure is preferred by "Beaver, Human." (Do not duplicate specialization information as species preferences.)
specializations	string	For buildings with specializations, you can include them here.

Errors

When the template is called without a name, the template reminds you that it is required.

Example:

{{Buildingbox}}

Yields:

You must specify the name of the building. See Template:Buildingbox for examples.

When providing the name of a building, it is important that it is spelled correctly, including any punctuation. Otherwise, an error will return from the data module.

Example:

Broken: {{Buildingbox|name=Alchemist Hut}}

Buildingbox can't find the specified building: Alchemist Hut.

Fixed: {{Buildingbox|name=Alchemist's Hut}}

Alchemist's Hut
