Properties

CanExecuteAction

A function that optionally determines whether a certain ActionType can be executed on this lot. This function also receives a ActionInfo, and a bool that indicates whether the action is started automatically. This function is useful for lots like Cafe, where using a coffee machine is disallowed if the person is not a lot employee.

public Func<ActionType, ActionInfo, bool, CanExecuteResult> CanExecuteAction { get; init; }

Property Value

Func<ActionType, ActionInfo, bool, CanExecuteResult>

DisplayName

Returns the display name of this lot, which is the Icon followed by a localized version of the Name.

public string DisplayName { get; }

Property Value

string

Employments

public LotEmployment[] Employments { get; init; }

Property Value

LotEmployment[]

VisitHours

The visitation hours that this lot has, which is used in GetCurrentVisitPriority(Lot, Person, TimeSpan?). The default value for this property is 6 to 23.

public (int, int) VisitHours { get; init; }

Property Value

(int Start, int End)

Methods

GetCurrentVisitPriority(Lot, Person, TimeSpan?)

Returns this lot's current visitation priority, which is a combination of the GetVisitPriority function and this lot's VisitHours. If the time is outside of the VisitHours, then the priority is reduced by 95%. Note that visitation priority doesn't factor in whether the lot's Map is the same as the person's. See also CanVisitRightNow(Person).

public float GetCurrentVisitPriority(Lot lot, Person person, TimeSpan? time = null)

Parameters

lot Lot

The lot.

person Person

The person whose visitation priority to query.

time TimeSpan?

The current time, or null to use the Time.

Returns

float

The current visitation priority for the lot.

GetScalingVisitPriority(Lot, float, int)

A helper method intended to be used with GetVisitPriority that scales the visitation priority with the amount of people that are currently on the lot, both from the current household and other households.

public static float GetScalingVisitPriority(Lot lot, float basePriority, int maxVisitors = 50)

Parameters

lot Lot

The lot.

basePriority float

The base priority, which will be multiplied with the visitor scale factor.

maxVisitors int

The maximum amount of visitors the lot should be able to have before a priority of 0 is returned.

Returns

float

The scaling visit priority for the given lot.
