Production Menu

The Production Menu is an extremely integral part of crafting in Towns. The production menu panel can be accessed via the button on the left side of the screen or by pressing F2. Hovering over the semicircle opens the menu temporarily while clicking on it locks the menu open until it is clicked again. The semicircle also becomes a lighter color when the menu is locked open. There are 7 categories, some with many sub-categories: Food, Militaries, Utilities, Containers, Materials, Burner and Vanity.



Usage
The production menu has two primary uses: Keep in mind, Townsfolk can only create things they have the materials for! Ordering them to create Bread without wheat will accomplish nothing, as will ordering them to gather Milk without Cows!
 * Ordering Townsfolk to quickly obtain specific food, militaries, hats and much more. These items can be obtained by crafting using raw materials with the respective utilites or by collecting the items from the environment by farming to get fruit and wood, or by butchering animals to get raw meats or bones.
 * Ordering Townsfolk to ensure a stockpile of specific items is maintained at all times.

Creation Orders
To order Townsfolk to quickly create items:
 * 1) Click the production menu button in the left of the screen (or press F2).
 * 2) Click the relevant category in the categories menu that pops up on the left side of the screen.
 * 3) Cycle through any extra categories you need to - for instance, the item Bread is under Food, then Baking, wheras all producible utilities are found in the same menu.
 * 4) Find the item you want to create.
 * 5) Click the green plus (+) symbol to the left of the item to instruct Townsfolk to craft/harvest the required amount of items.
 * 6) Your Townsfolk should now start producing the chosen item (if all materials/buildings required are available!).

Auto-production Orders
To order Townsfolk to keep a stock of a specific item:
 * 1) Follow the procedure above until step 5.
 * 2) Instead of clicking the plus (+) sign to the left of the item, click the plus sign to the right.
 * 3) Townsfolk will try to keep a stock of the specified item to the number chosen - for instance, if you press the plus sign to the right of bread 10 times, they will always try to keep 10 bread in their Town - when one is eaten or otherwise removed, another one will be produced (so long as all required materials/buildings are available).
