How to create Functions

Using the Function Values Table, it is possible to create new Functions based on existing Functions by duplicating an existing Function. The properties of the new Function can then be changed independently of the old Function.

Editor → Current Situation (Ribbon tab) → Buildings (Ribbon bar) → Edit Function Values (Dropdown)

How to create a new Function through duplication:

1. Ensure the Function you wish to duplicate is present in the Function Values Table
2. Select the Function which you want to duplicate from the list.
3. Select "Duplicate".
4. Find the newly created Function at the bottom of the list.

• 
  Select a Function in the table and click on the duplicate button.

  The duplicated function indicated by blue and with a much higher ID number.

Notes

• Duplication of Functions which already exist is currently the only way to create additional Functions.
• A duplicated Function will have the same Function values as the Function it was based on, unless it explicitly has that Function Value set.
• If a Function is duplicated to create an additional Function, and without setting a Function Value for the new Function, a Function Value on the old Function is changed, the new Function will reflect the new value for the Function Values set on the original Function.

• 
  Changing an asset color for the Sports center function also changes that color for the Sports Center duplicate function.
• 
  However, the duplicate function can override the asset color, and no longer changes with the color change of the original Sports center function.
