Making an industry

[FulliAutomatix]

I've been having a crack at making an industry, and so far I've got this code

[+] Spoiler

Code: Select all

item(FEAT_INDUSTRIES, nuclear_reprocessing_site, 0){
	property{
		substitute            :  ;
		override              :  ;
		layouts               :  ;
		life_type             : IND_LIFE_TYPE_BLACK_HOLE ;
		fund_cost_multiplier  : 37 ;
		prod_cargo_types      : [] ;
		accept_cargo_types    : [NWST] ;
		conflicting_ind_types : industry_type(0x01) ;
		prob_random           :  ;
		prob_in_game          :  ;
		map_colour            :  ;
		spec_flags            :  ;
		new_ind_msg           : string(TTD_STR_NEWS_INDUSTRY_CONSTRUCTION) ;
		name                  : string(STR_NUCPROC_NAME) ;
		nearby_station_name   : string(STR_NUCPROC_STATION_NAME) ;
	}
	graphics{
		
	}
}

I've been referencing the NML documentation and a very basic and not very useful OpenGFX Industries file, but I can't figure out really where to go from here. I've got graphics for it ready.

Could some please explain how industries work in NML or give me a reference to a fully defined (preferebly new) industry already or source code to a GRF? Thanks in advance

I posted a sample industry that might help you get started at viewtopic.php?f=68&t=76669#p1188871

I was about to post the same thing. How do i link the graphics from my GRF file ?
Here's my code yet :

Code: Select all

grf {
	grfid: "gb\01\05";
	name: string(STR_GRF_NAME);
	desc: string(STR_GRF_DESC);
	version: 0;
	min_compatible_version: 0;
}

cargotable {PASSENGERS}

switch(FEAT_INDUSTRIES, SELF, indu_transported_switch, transported_last_month_pct_1) {
	0: return CB_RESULT_IND_PROD_NO_CHANGE;
	1..44: return CB_RESULT_IND_PROD_DECREMENT_BY_1;
	45..64: return CB_RESULT_IND_PROD_NO_CHANGE;
	return CB_RESULT_IND_PROD_INCREMENT_BY_1;
}

item(FEAT_INDUSTRIES, indu_hotel) {
	property {
		substitute: ;
		override: ;
		accept_cargo_types: [cargotype("PASSENGERS", "GOODS"];
		prod_cargo_types: [cargotype("PASSENGERS", "GOODS")];
		prod_multiplier: [30];
		prob_in_game: 0;
		prob_random: 7;
		life_type: IND_LIFE_TYPE_PROCESSING;
		nearby_station_name: string(STR_HOTEL_STATION_NAME);
		spec_flags: 0;
	}
	graphics {
		monthly_prod_change: indu_transported_switch;
		random_prod_change: CB_RESULT_IND_PROD_NO_CHANGE;
		build_prod_change: return 4;
	}
}

Industries don't generally have graphics. Industry tiles do, and then the layouts property of the industry provides the tile arrangement(s) to be built.

[acs121]

How do i then link the industry tiles code to the industry properties code ?

[PikkaBird]

Use the layouts property of the industry to tell it which tiles to build as part of the industry.

[FulliAutomatix]

I've got this to compile, but it won't place anywhere in game.
As in, it always pops up as "Site unsuitable".

Any ideas?
