Function values are specific values which form the general properties of any construction with a specific function. A function has many function values, and any construction of that function also has those function values.
Function values can be changed for an individual construction, or for a function, which in turn would affect all constructions of that function.
Category values
Some function values are construction-related, and some function values are category-related. The difference between them is only applicable if a single function consists of multiple function categories. For example, the function value indicating the maximum amount of floors for the construction is related to the construction as a whole. However, if the function contains both social housing and luxury housing, the individual types of housing can have different unit sizes configured, as one type of housing may offer bigger housing units than the other.
Overview of all function values
Most function values have specific effects in the context of the Tygron Platform. Individual function values can be grouped into categories based on their effects or themes.

The amount of resources requested starts at HEAT_FLOW_M2_START_VALUE in the start year, and is then increased by this value every year until the building's year of creation, and finally multiplied by the size of the address(es) the net load is associated with to get a default FLOW value for the net load. Heat flow formula start year HEAT_FLOW_M2_START_YEAR year Yes 0 to 3000 For any net load connected to an Address part of a Building of this function, the start year for the calculation of the amount of resources (FLOW) requested. The amount of resources requests starts at HEAT_FLOW_M2_START_VALUE in this year, and is then increased by HEAT_FLOW_M2_CHANGE_PER_YEAR every year until the building's year of creation, and finally multiplied by the size of the address(es) the net load is associated with to get a default FLOW value for the net load.

The automatically calculated FLOW divided by this value is the automatically calculated POWER. Note that an explicitly defined FLOW attribute is not used in this calculation. Heat flow value at start year HEAT_FLOW_M2_START_VALUE m² Yes -100 to 100 For any net load connected to an address part of a Building of this function, the amount of resources (FLOW) requested by the net load in the defined starting year. This value is increased with the HEAT_FLOW_M2_CHANGE_PER_YEAR, until the building's year of Building, and finally multiplied by the size of the address(es) the net load is associated with to get a default FLOW value for the net load.

Attributes
Besides the function values which are provided by default, it is possible to add user-defined attributes to function values as well. Any attribute added is automatically available as an attribute for all functions, and all constructions, although the default value of the attribute will be 0.
User-defined attributes added to a function value always apply to the construction as a whole, and cannot be category-specific.
Function value | Attribute | Unit | Per category | Description |
---|---|---|---|---|
(user defined) | (user defined) | (user defined) | Attributes can be used to assign any additional values or properties to functions and the constructions which derive from them. |
