Template:Construction

Overview

A template to populate small, well-aligned tables of construction goods.

Parameters

You may elect to name the parameters explicitly (Planks=) or use them in the order specified in the table:

Parameter	Type	Description
Planks	Number	The number of  Planks required.
Bricks	Number	The number of  Bricks required.
Fabric	Number	The number of  Fabric required.
Parts	Number	The number of  Parts required.

Examples

This table shows all possible values. {{Construction|Planks=12|Bricks=8|Fabric=4|Parts=2}} yields:

Amount	Material
12	Planks
8	Bricks
4	Fabric
2	Parts

Alternatively, you do not have to name the parameters. {{Construction|12|8|4|2} yields the same thing:

Amount	Material
12	Planks
8	Bricks
4	Fabric
2	Parts

You can also mix naming and not-naming to make it easier to write when skipping over building materials. {{Construction|8|Parts=2}} yields:

Amount	Material
8	Planks
2	Parts

Errors

This template does not result in any errors. However, there is no use for a template called without parameters.

{{Construction}}

Yields:

Amount	Material

(It's there, but it's a blank table.)

The template also does not prevent you from mixing both named and unnamed parameters, but the result will be confusing to readers.

{{Construction||10|Bricks=12}}

Yields:

Amount	Material
10	Bricks
12	Bricks
