| Name | Attribute | Unit | Range | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Category weight | CATEGORY_WEIGHT | decimal | 4.9E-324 to 1.7976931348623157E308 | How much of a building of this function is classified under the specified category. |
| Unit size | UNIT_SIZE_M2 | m²/unit | 0 to 1.7976931348623157E308 | How large a single housing unit within this Building is. This is only relevant for residential categories. |
Financial
| Name | Attribute | Unit | Range | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Buyout cost | BUYOUT_COST_M2 | currency/m² | 0 to 1.7976931348623157E308 | How much it costs, in addition to the demolition costs, to demolish this Building during a session, when the Building is not vacant. These costs are due to eviction or buyout of existing tenants. |
| Construction cost | CONSTRUCTION_COST_M2 | currency/m² | 0 to 1.7976931348623157E308 | How much it costs to create a new building, when using this function as an action during a session. |
| Demolition cost | DEMOLISH_COST_M2 | currency/m² | 0 to 1.7976931348623157E308 | How much it costs to demolish this Building during a session. If the Building is not vacant, the buyout costs are applicable as well, in addition to the demolition costs. |
| Sell price | SELL_PRICE_M2 | currency/m² | 0 to 1.7976931348623157E308 | How much revenue is generated for the owner, when a building of this function is created during a session. The income is only generated once, when the construction of the building is completed. |
Network
| Name | Attribute | Unit | Range | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Heat flow change per year | HEAT_FLOW_M2_CHANGE_PER_YEAR | / m²/year | -1.7976931348623157E308 to 1.7976931348623157E308 | For any net load connected to an address part of a Building of this function, the amount of resources (FLOW) requested in addition to those in the starting year during every subsequent year. The amount of resources starts at HEAT_FLOW_M2_START_VALUE in the start year. It increases by this value each year until the building's year of creation. The result is then multiplied by the address size to determine the default FLOW for the net load. |
| Heat flow formula start year | HEAT_FLOW_M2_START_YEAR | year | 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 requested 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. |
| Heat flow to power multiplier | HEAT_POWER_TO_FLOW_MULTIPLIER | factor | -1.7976931348623157E308 to 1.7976931348623157E308 | For any net load connected to a building of this function, this divisor converts the automatically calculated FLOW to POWER (POWER = FLOW / multiplier). Explicitly defined FLOW attributes are ignored. |
| Heat flow value at start year | HEAT_FLOW_M2_START_VALUE | /m² | -100 to 100 | The amount of resources (FLOW) requested by a net load in the starting year. This value increases via HEAT_FLOW_M2_CHANGE_PER_YEAR until the building's construction year, then is multiplied by the associated address size to determine the default FLOW. |
Parking
| Name | Attribute | Unit | Range | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Parking lots | PARKING_LOTS_PER_M2 | parking lot/m² | 0 to 1 | How many parking lots are available per m² of this building. |
| Parking lots demand | PARKING_LOTS_DEMAND_PER_M2 | parking lot/m² | 0 to 2 | How many parking lots are required per m² of this building. |
