	Each building maintains an inventory of all commodities stored within its storage. The size of the inventory depends upon the [[~~Building_Design~~\|building ~~design~~]] of the building. The ''Building'' tab of the ''City'' (<code>F10</code>) window contains information about the amount of storage in a particular building. The inventory size limit is applied to each [[commodity]] individually. A building with an inventory size of 100 can store up to 100 units of each commodity: 100 [[vegetable]]s, 100 [[beans]], and 100 [[Mechanical_Part\|mechanical part]]s for example.		Each building maintains an inventory of all commodities stored within its storage. The size of the inventory depends upon the [[Building_Blueprint\|building blueprint]] of the building. The ''Building'' tab of the ''City'' (<code>F10</code>) window contains information about the amount of storage in a particular building.

A building with an inventory size of 100 can store up to 100 units of each commodity: 100 [[vegetable]]s, 100 [[beans]], and 100 [[Mechanical_Part\|mechanical part]]s for example.

	A building's inventory may contain a mixture of [[qualities]] of the same commodity. The combined total may not exceed the inventory size. A building with an inventory size of 100 might have 30 beans of quality 200 and 45 beans of quality 125, leaving room for 25 more beans, but the total amount of beans in stock will not exceed 100.

A building with an inventory size of 100 might have 30 beans of quality 200 and 45 beans of quality 125, leaving room for 25 more beans, but the total amount of beans in stock will not exceed 100. Better quality commodities will replace lower quality commodities when most of the storage is filled.

	Construction and [[Manufacturing_Process\|manufacturing process]]es fetch materials from the building's inventory or any connected building's inventory as needed. The resulting quality of construction and manufacturing is the average quality of the components used to make the building or product. To produce the best products and buildings, a building supplies the best quality commodities from its inventory before the poorer quality commodities.

The resulting quality of construction and manufacturing is the average quality of the components used to make the building or product. To produce the best products and buildings, a building supplies the best quality commodities from its inventory before the poorer quality commodities.

	<s~~>Cities strive to improve~~ the ~~quality of their inventories~~. ~~When a city manufactures, imports, or buys commodities~~, the city ~~replaces lower quality commodities if necessary to fit the new commodities into its~~ inventory. ~~A city will not buy, import, or manufacture commodities of lower~~ quality ~~if they will not fit into its inventory~~. ~~This improves~~ the ~~quality~~ of ~~its inventory whenever possible~~, ~~which improves~~ the ~~quality of the commodities it manufactures~~ and ~~the~~ buildings ~~it constructs~~.		A building's capacitor is treated much like the buildings's storage. Electricity is stored in the power reserve when it is produced, not in the city's inventory. Electricity is always quality 255. Buildings and roads use varying amounts of electricity depending upon the size of buildings, manufacturing processes, life support, and electric lighting. Spacecraft may purchase electricity from the building's capacitor to recharge their capacitors and buildings will purchase electricity from spacecraft.

	Power reserve is treated much like the city's inventory. Electricity is stored in the power reserve when it is produced, not in the city's inventory. Electricity always has quality 255; there is no poor quality electricity. The size of the power reserve is based on the presence of certain buildings; the power reserve added by each building is shown on the table on the construction page. Buildings and roads use varying amounts of electricity from the power reserve depending upon the size of buildings, manufacturing processes, life support, and electric lighting. Spacecraft may purchase electricity from the power reserve to recharge their capacitors and cities will purchase electricity from spacecraft.		Ringworlds provide power as part of the ring hull infrastructure. Ringworld power is adequate to supply manufacturing processes and lighting. military bases require a great deal of power to be readily available in city capacitors. For this reason, power plants should be built in ringworld cities that have miliary bases.

	Buildings are essential to getting your [[city]] up and running. Every building can be built using either [[log]]s, [[lumber]], [[stone]]s, [[metal]], [[vulcium]] or [[magmium]]. Some buildings may even allow you to build additional levels depending on the material used. Logs will generally only allow you to build one or two levels, lumber will allow you to build up to four levels, stone up to 8 and so on, ending with vulcium which allows you to build up to 32 levels high.		Buildings are essential to getting your [[city]] up and running.

	~~To increase the amount of levels you wish to build, simply scroll the mouse wheel or <code>+</code> and <code>-</code> keys before placing the~~ building ~~and a number on your mouse pointer will show how many levels will~~ be built.		Every building can be built using either [[log]]s, [[lumber]], [[stone]]s, [[metal]], [[magmium]], [[vulcium]] or [[adamantine]]. The choosen construction material will determine the health and armor of the building, so in most cases this does not matter for non-military buildings.
	~~Should you choose to build only a single level of a building at first, it can be expanded later on up to the maximum allowed by the~~ construction material ~~chosen by simply placing another~~ of the ~~same type of~~ building ~~on top of it~~.

	Before constructing a building, you are able to see what materials are required to construct it, as well as which [[commodity]] said building can produce. You may also choose which commodity the building should start producing, or if it should actually produce anything at all. Note that factories and other resource-gathering buildings set to do nothing are useless, and as such they should always be producing something.
