Workshop
The advancement of a town depends on the construction of a shabby workshop full of nondescript clutter. It allows resources to be converted and is a pre-requisite for the construction of other more advanced buildings.

Revised for Season 18

The hammer of hammers, the sawing of saws, they all take place in this important building. Who knows who had the idea of it?

Construction

• Requirements for the Construction:

• The following resources must be in The Bank and will be used up after completion:

• 10×  Twisted Plank
•   8×  Wrought Iron

• Citizens must spend 25 to complete the building.

Effects

• Allows to visit the Workshop in Town for converting items or opening containers for 3 each.
• Workshop-only combinations cost 7 each.
  • Constructing the Factory will permanently reduce the cost by 1.
  • Having a Hacksaw or an Improvised Hacksaw in the Rucksack will reduce the cost by 1.
  • So with both reductions together, each conversion costs 1 and each combination 5 ( Technicians Workbenchonly.
• With the Technicians Workbench built, it is even possible to select the yield of dismantleable Resources and openable Containers and Boxes for the cost of 8 .
  • Additionally Technicians Workbench-only item combinations are available in that case.
• Upgrading it will reduce the cost of constructing new buildings and improves building repairs at higher levels.

  • Instant blanks were added.
• In Season 16:
  • Technicians Workbench was added.
• In Season 15:
  • Upgrades level 4 and 5 now influence construction repair costs.
