List of Upgrade Types
The Upgrade Types already present in the Tygron Platform can be roughly categorized into two types: improvements and transformations. While not formal settings, these categories provide a helpful overview of existing upgrade types. Custom upgrade types should either improve or transform a building.
Improvements
Improvements enhance a function without changing its primary purpose. For example: a warehouse, upgraded with green roofs, is still a warehouse, but will be better for the water storage and livability of an area. The following improvement upgrades exist in the Tygron Platform:
- Gardens → Water tanks
- Parkinglots → Water-permeable
- Roads → U-Gutter
- Roads → High kerbstones
- Roads → Water-permeable
- Roads → Plant trees
- Roads → Roads with Floodgates (sideway)
- Roads → Roads with Floodgates (blockades, right)
- Roads → Roads with Floodgates (blockades, left)
- Roads → Roads with Floodgates (blockades, south)
- Roads → Roads with Storm surge wall
- Roads → Covered Roads
- Roads → Covered Roads with nature
- Buildings → Entrance Floodgates
- Flat roof → Water roods
- Flat roof → Green roofs
- Flat roof → Roofgardens
- Solar Panels
- Houses → Renovate
Transformations
Transformations change a function's primary purpose, potentially altering its category. For example, an office building can be upgraded to be an apartment complex. The following transformative upgrades exist in the Tygron Platform:
- Offices → Apartments
- Offices → Shops
