# Production Overview

![Icon](https://785480918-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2F-MgLBToA--UPl-f92wWn%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-b51a4348dbf1c208958c9ea97f8b428dbbdfbc23%2Fproduction-overview-icon.png?alt=media)

## Menu Overview

The window features multiple tabs, each dedicated to a specific production or category, showing the details for each production.

![Menu Overview](https://785480918-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2F-MgLBToA--UPl-f92wWn%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-d5c8a1ffcdd48e5e9befbcf0a37a8ad8a71f33a2%2Fmenu-layout.png?alt=media)

The Production overview is structured as follows, from top to bottom:

* **Title bar** with a [Configuration](#configuration) menu
* **Tabs** - One tab per resource type:
* **Group** - Button to change table view on specific tab:
  * [List view](#list-view) (default)
  * [Group view](#group-view)
  * [Sum view](#summarized-view)
* **Filter** - Input field that filters any column (eg. filter specific buildings, era, fragments)
* **Current production/Max Production:**
  * **Current production** - Currently produced resources based on motivation status
  * **Estimated max production** - Theoretical max production considering that all buildings are motivated, and the average value of production on buildings producing that resource by chance (eg. Building that has 20% chance of producing 100 FPs, will be calculated as ∅20 FPs production)

## Usage

Each tab displays the current production based on the motivation status of buildings, along with the estimated maximum production.

* A star outline in front of a building's name indicates that it is still not motivated or polished.
* The symbol ∅ represents the average collection value of a specific building ( \[production value] x \[chance of producing that resource] ).

## List View

This is the default view available on all tabs. It displays detailed information for each individual building, including:

* Motivation status (a star outline indicates unmotivated)
* Amount produced
* Era and production time

## Group View

This view summarizes production by building type. It shows:

* Number of buildings placed
* Total production across those buildings
* Footprint (size)

**Note:** On the *Fragments* tab, the quantity is shown per building rather than summarized.

![Group table view](https://785480918-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2F-MgLBToA--UPl-f92wWn%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-053452f1f86cb4cb374137a32f71d4660d109a1b%2Fview-group.png?alt=media)

## Summarized view

Available on *Fragments* and *Army Overview* tabs. This view displays a summary of total production:

* By fragment type (e.g., 30m Mass Supply Rush, 6h Mass Supply Rush)
* By troop type (for army production)

Useful for quickly evaluating which fragments or units are being generated.

![Summarized table view](https://785480918-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2F-MgLBToA--UPl-f92wWn%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-f70b08b116cf7fb6c11026f94daf686962e367b8%2Fview-sum.png?alt=media)

## Boost Percentage View

This toggle button appears in the top-right of the *FP*, *Coins*, and *Supplies* tabs. When enabled, it filters the table to only show buildings that contribute percentage-based boosts to the selected resource type (e.g., +5% FP production).

It helps identify support buildings that enhance your city's output.

## Item Sources Menu

This menu is available on the *Fragments* and *QI Resources* tabs.

Useful for tracking down where rare items are being generated.

![Item Sources button](https://785480918-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2F-MgLBToA--UPl-f92wWn%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-6cdd855e5b148e1ae4b7851a1956dcf7b84210ca%2Fitem-button.png?alt=media)

This module allows you to quickly search for buildings that produce a specific type of fragment or QI resource.

![Item sources menu](https://785480918-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2F-MgLBToA--UPl-f92wWn%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-cf3560619f0ffcb80f4af21bcfda3e54290104e5%2Fmenu-item-sources.png?alt=media)

## Configuration

Configuration menu allows users to customize how time is displayed throughout the Production Overview interface.

![Config Menu](https://785480918-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2F-MgLBToA--UPl-f92wWn%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-9ee99f1173b9886aa57c89248b267a1a863db8bc%2Fconfig-menu.png?alt=media)

Available options include:

* **Relative Time** - e.g., "in 5 minutes" or "in 12 hours"
* **12 hour clock** - Fixed Time format (e.g., "2:30 PM")
* **24 hour clock** - Fixed Time format (e.g., "14:30")

This setting enhances readability and user preference by letting each user choose the format that best suits their habits or regional standards.

## FAQ

**Q: Why are some buildings showing a star icon?**\
A: It means they are motivated or polished.

**Q: What does ∅ mean in production?**\
A: It shows the average yield for buildings with a chance-based production.

**Q: Can I filter by specific eras or building names?**\
A: Yes, use the filter input above the table to search any column.
