Functions

addBuildingListener (tbl)
Adds one or multiple event listeners for (specific) buildings in the city. Listeners will not be persisted so you may want to always register them in script:enterCity(). Listeners will not be called in any specific order.

Note that the building listener will also be called for buildings that were moved. This call happens immediately after Script.EVENT_PLACED and does not reflect the final properties of the building like upgrades. For that you could use Runtime.postpone to do the check for properties a bit later.

New feature:

    This is a new feature that was added in version 1.10.73

Unstable feature:

    This feature is not stable and may be changed or removed in the future.

Parameters:

  • tbl table A table that holds named parameters.

Usage:

    function script:enterCity()
  City.addBuildingListener{
    draft = Draft.get('$somebuildingdraftid'),  -- either a building draft to monitor, or nil to monitor all buildings
    added = function(data)          -- data is a table of { x, y, draft }
      Debug.toast('Added building at', data.x, data.y)
    end,
    finished = function(data) end,  -- data is a table of { x, y, draft }
    upgraded = function(data) end,  -- data is a table of { x, y, draft, upgradeDraft }
    removed = function(data) end    -- data is a table of { x, y, draft }
