I would create it as commercial building as casinos are commercials in real world, too. About income, that's currently not supported for plugin buildings.

P is probability
The lower, the rarer the building will spawn.
Height is how far from the coastline. You can see exactly on Lobby's picture.
Radius just is the max difference from height where building can spawn.
So if I want my building to always spawn on ground, what should I have written as radius and height.

OK. It spawns, but every time on the edge of the map.

If you use the same map every time, they will probably always occur in the same area. If you have a max count on the buildings, they will probably only occur at the southern end of the map unless the probability is extremely small.

To fix it if I have max count, decrease probability by a lot, right?

Yes, or use a higher height and a small radius.

As your buildings won't be built on water (unless you explicitly allow them to be built there) you may use something like radius:1000, height:100.

Added attribute sound click to provide a sound file (from within your plugin's directory) which will be played when user taps on your building.

Example:

Code: Select all

"sound click":{"file":"sound.ogg"}
A variety of audio formats is supported, see this listing for more information.
On what does sound play time depend?

Also a suggestion:

Code: Select all

"require IAP":true,
"IAP":"lobianajones"

What are the tags for building farmfields?
I tried making a new farmfield plugin but it always builds at roads despite setting the "needs roads: false".

Crazy question #1:
Is there a possibility for one building created via plugin to have swat, police, fireman and healthcare emergency response?
Also I would like the ids for swat, police, fire truck and ambulance car.

It's not possible as the responsibility of a building is determined by it's type and a building cannot have multiple types at the same time.

For car ids, have a look at the listing in 3 in the Cars documentation.

This might just be a dumb question, but can you create a building with say level 1 AND 2 so it keeps spawning throughout both levels?

Thanks Koala

My next question for you guys:

What does the "Usage" attribute inside of a json do?

Say: "Usage:100"
