Buildings

Buildings are the core structures players construct and manage in Project Rebearth. Each building serves a specific function, from housing the population to producing resources, defending territory, and enabling trade. Buildings are grouped into categories based on their role in the settlement.

Construction costs vary by biome. In the Wood Biome, most buildings cost Wood. In the Stone Biome, they cost Stone. In the Earth Biome, they cost Earth. The Arctic Biome uses Wood at double the normal cost. Some advanced buildings also require Tools, Glass, Metal, or Scrap.

Town

Town buildings form the core of a settlement, providing essential services and administration.

Building	Population	Key function
Center	+10	Starting building; stores 5,000 resources; upgrades to Square
Square	+20	Upgraded Center; stores 10,000 resources; produces Coin
Market	-5	Enables buying and selling up to 1,000 resources
Town Hall	-20	Administrative building
Tavern	-5	Converts Drinks into Coin
Plaza	—	Decorative paved area (Polygon)
Dirt	—	Unpaved area; upgrades to Plaza
Market Stall	—	Parent structure for stall variants
Market Stall 1	—	Converts Food into Coin
Market Stall 2	—	Converts Food into Coin
Market Stall 3	—	Converts Food into Coin
Market Stall 4	—	Converts Food into Coin
Market Stall 5	—	Converts Clothes into Coin

Housing

Housing buildings provide population capacity. Each tier offers more population at a higher construction and upkeep cost. All housing must be placed within 100m of a Center, Square, or Market.

Building	Population	Cost	Wood/day	Food/day
Shack	+2	35	-1.0	-1.5
Hut	+3	55	-1.5	-2.0
Cabin	+4	80	-2.0	-2.5
House	+6	135	-2.5	-4.0
Residence	+8	200	-3.0	-5.0
Villa	+10	280	-3.5	-6.0

Costs shown are for the Wood Biome and Stone Biome. The Earth Biome uses Earth for construction and consumes roughly 1/10th the Wood for upkeep. The Arctic Biome costs double in Wood and consumes double Wood for upkeep.

Food

Food buildings produce Food, Grain, and processed food products.

Building	Population	Key function
Field	Varies	Polygon; grows crops (potato, maize, grain) or raises animals (sheep, goat, cow)
Fishery	-1	Produces +5.0 Food/day; must be placed on the coast
Boat	-1	Child of Fishery; produces +3.0 Food/day
Pier	—	Child of Fishery; placed on water
Windmill	-5	Converts Grain into Flour; upgrades to Improved Windmill
Improved Windmill	—	Upgraded Windmill; more efficient grain conversion
Bakery	-2	Converts Flour into Food

Resources

Resource buildings gather raw materials from the environment.

Building	Population	Key function
Woodcutter	-4	Produces Wood; output varies by biome
Saw	-3	Child of Woodcutter; produces +20.0 Wood/day
Nursery	-1	Child of Woodcutter; produces Wood (biome-varying)
Tent	-1	Child of Woodcutter; produces Wood (biome-varying)
Logpile	—	Child of Woodcutter; stores 100 Wood
Quarry	Varies	Polygon; produces Stone
Stone Crane	-5	Child of Quarry; produces Stone; upgrades to Improved Stone Crane
Improved Stone Crane	-5	Upgraded Stone Crane; higher Stone output
Claypit	Varies	Polygon; produces Earth
Clay Crane	-5	Child of Claypit; produces Earth; upgrades to Improved Clay Crane
Improved Clay Crane	-5	Upgraded Clay Crane; higher Earth output
Iron Mine	-50	Produces Ore; upgrades to Improved Iron Mine
Improved Iron Mine	-100	Upgraded Iron Mine; higher Ore output
Foraging Hut	-1	Produces Food and basic resources; output varies by biome

Refined & Manufactured

These buildings process raw materials into refined goods.

Building	Population	Key function
Tailor	-10	Converts Wool into Clothes
Brewery	-10	Converts Grain into Drinks
Creamery	-5	Converts Milk into Food
Glassworks	-10	Converts Earth into Glass
Refinery	-20	Converts Ore into Metal
Tools Workshop	-10	Converts Metal and Wood into Tools

Infrastructure

Infrastructure buildings provide roads, bridges, and maritime trade capabilities.

Building	Population	Key function
Path	—	Basic road; upgrades to Road
Road	—	Paved road; costs Stone per meter
Bridge	—	Crosses water; must be placed on water or coast
Port	-20	Enables maritime trade with 5,000 capacity; must be placed on the coast
Dock	—	Child of Port; extends port reach on water
Small Ship	—	Docked at Port; consumes -1.0 Drinks/day
Medium Ship	—	Docked at Port; consumes -5.0 Drinks/day
Large Ship	—	Docked at Port; consumes -10.0 Drinks/day

Storage

Storage buildings hold resources for the settlement.

Building	Population	Key function
Warehouse	-1	Stores 5,000 of all standard resources
Logpile	—	Child of Woodcutter; stores 100 Wood

The Center (5,000) and Square (10,000) also provide storage for all standard resources. Individual production buildings often have small storage buffers (typically 50-100) for their output resources.

Research

Research buildings generate Knowledge for unlocking technologies and funding Expeditions.

Building	Population	Key function
University	-50	Produces +10.0 Knowledge/day; consumes Coin and Glass
Museum	-10	Produces +5.0 Knowledge/day; consumes Coin

Defense

Defense buildings protect the settlement's territory from raids.

Building	Population	Key function
Tower	-3	Land-based defense; consumes -5.0 Coin/day
Water Tower	-3	Water-based defense; consumes -5.0 Coin/day; must be placed on water

Decorative

Decorative buildings have no production function but can be placed to enhance the settlement's appearance.

Building	Cost	Notes
Table	10 Wood
Well	50 (biome resource)	Appearance varies by biome
Small Statue	10 Stone
Large Statue	50 Stone
Fountain	10 Stone
Fireplace	5 Stone + 5 Wood
