			== Building Categories ==

			There are 4 different types of buildings:
			* Community Buildings - these buildings form the core of the pirate haven
			* Housing Buildings - these buildings are necessary dwellings for every pirate
			* Production Buildings - these buildings gather and refine resources
			* Principle Buildings - these buildings unlocked in the compass have powerful and varying effects

Buildings can be switched off at any time to allow their workers to work elsewhere or to control the flow and consumption of resources around the island.

			New buildings are unlocked by progressing the [[Compass]]. Unlocking a new tier of ship unlocks a new set of buildings, listed on the Compass. Buildings required to sustain the crews of those ships are automatically unlocked after the ship is built. For example, the [[Marketplace]] is required for the Buccaneer but isn't unlocked until the first Tier 4 Prowler or Destroyer–class ship is built at a pier.

== Overview ==

[[File:Pirate Camp info.png|thumb|200px|A Pirate Camp with 100% Satisfaction, a few extra Housing spots, and extra production of Stew and Booze that exceeds current needs.]]
The pirate haven begins with a [[Pirate Camp]] and a starter Shipwreck with some basic supplies. Expand by adding buildings that grow, produce, and assemble the [[Resources#Upkeep Resources|Upkeep Resources]] needed to sustain the haven and its fleet of [[Ships]] and provide housing.

Every building must be placed within reach of a Pirate Camp, and each building's workers are housed and supplied by that Pirate Camp. Resources can be transported in from anywhere around the island (for example, if another camp produces excess Stew), but a pirate must be fed from the [[Galley]] in their Pirate Camp.

Buildings must be connected to the pirate haven with the '''Connections''' like roads, rope bridges, cliff paths, and ladders. Construction can't start until the connection is made, and the building must stay connected to operate. There are only a few buildings that do not require any connection.

Most buildings require a certain number of workers and will not function if there are not enough [[Pirates|Drifters]] available on the island. Buildings cannot be partially staffed.

Buildings can be switched off at any time to allow their workers to work elsewhere or to control the flow and consumption of resources around the island.

== Production and Drain ==

Buildings that grow, produce, or assemble goods have a maximum rate of '''production,''' shown at the center of the progress wheel in the building's information display. For example, a [[Woodcutter]]'s maximum production rate is 8 Hardwood per minute. If the building requires input resources that are scarce or have to be transported from far away, the building will not produce at its maximum rate.

Every product from a building goes into its own internal '''output storage''' (shown as a large resource icon on the information display with the current value and a blue meter showing how full the output storage is). The recent rate of production vs. consumption or fetching for transportation may mean that storage is increasing or decreasing. This calculation is called '''Drain''' and represents whether that building is meeting needs.

A building's drain increases when '''Fetchers''' are added elsewhere to pick up its resources. Depending on how long it takes the fetchers to get to the building, the drain may or may not increase significantly. When drain exceeds production for an essential resource, it may be necessary to add another of the same building. This is an opportunity to examine transportation routes to determine where another building could increase efficiency of the overall supply chain.

=== Fetchers ===

Buildings that produce goods from other goods require '''Fetchers''', pirates who work to transport goods from one building to another, one way. Every route requires its own assigned Fetcher.

Input storage is shown above the production display. Clicking an input resource and clicking the resource icon above the building producing that resource will assign a new Fetcher.

Buildings that require input goods will stop functioning when their input storage is empty. If this is because the Fetcher is waiting at the source building and no new production is happening there either, the link icon will change to a red hourglass indicating that there is a problem with the supply chain.
