The Printing works is the part of the ECS Wood Vector.

Cargoes

Accepting

The Printing works accepts Paper and Dyes if defined.

The Printing works does not accept any cargo during first 93 days of life if built in game.

Cargo acceptance is limited by storage capacity. If the stockpile is in overflow, the industry stops accepting cargo until the stockpile is down to 75% of capacity, at which point the industry will start accepting cargo again.

Level	Paper	Paper (75%)	Dyes	Dyes (75%)
Very low	1345	1008	336	252
Low	1921	1441	480	360
Normal	2744	2058	686	515
High	3920	2940	980	735
Very high	5600	4200	1400	1050
Ultimate	8000	6000	2000	1500

Acceptance limit can be disabled with parameter of ECS Wood Vector

Production

The Printing works produces Goods.

The Printing works does not produce any cargo during first 93 days of life if built in game.

The Printing works uses 6 production levels.

Both cargoes are a must. On the lowest production level the missing cargo would be taken from internal resources to produce about 16 units of Goods. The Printing works production is shown in the table (production data is calculated for 8 cycles a month. During game play, there are 8 or 9 cycles, while the total amount of distributed cargo is adjusted with property for minimal amount of cargo distributed).

Level	Cycles	Goods	Paper	Dyes
Very low	1	120	64	8
Low	2	240	128	16
Normal	4	480	256	32
High	9	1080	576	72
Very high	19	2280	1216	152
Ultimate	41	4920	2624	328

Production change

Production change happens on the 1-st day of every month.

The Printing works does not change production level during first 93 days of life if built in game.

On the lowest production level (Very low) advanced closure mechanism is applied with the following protection conditions:

• last one on the map
• younger than 5 years for industries, built in SE (scenario editor) or during map generation, younger than 2 years for others
• transportation level > 75%

Protection can be changed with parameter of ECS Wood Vector to the following protection conditions:

• last one on the map
• younger than 5 years for industries, built in SE (scenario editor) or during map generation, younger than 2 years for others
• transportation level > 1%
• Printing works was built by the player during game play

Changing production level is calculated by comparing the min (Paper, Dyes * 7) with the value shown in the table.

The industry can increase production level by one, and decrease it to any level.

Level	Decrease	Increase
Very low	72	216
Low	144	432
Normal	288	864
High	648	1944
Very high	1368	4104
Ultimate	2952

On normal production level and higher at list 50% of cargo should be transported to allow production level growth

Construction

The Printing works has one layout.

The Printing works has low probability (2) to be built by map generator and very low probability (1) to be built during game play.

The Printing works can be built by a player both in a game and in the scenario editor. Construction cost factor is 176. Construction conditions are represented in the table.

When built by the player during a game, the Printing works will be in company colours of the builder. When generated by the game or built while in the scenario editor, the Printing works will pick up the colour randomly.
