Warmerdam: /* Essential Compound Creation */ note requirement for advanced chem2.

= Overview =

This is a guide to what you can do with a [[Chemistry Laboratory]] upgraded with an [[Essential Macerator]] and an [[Alcohol Lamp]]. You need to upgrade the chemistry lab twice to be able to install the macerator and alcohol lamp.

The essential macerator allows you to do several things, among them:
* Perform essence distillation from herbs, tree resins, powdered gems, salts of metals, marble dust, and camel pheremones
* Create [[Essential Compound]]s from 5 different types of distilled [[Chemistry/Essences|Essences]].
* Create litmus test strips to test essential compounds.
* Perform essential compound [[Chemistry/Extracts|extraction]].

Note: precisely calibrating a chemistry lab with glassware only effects a couple of operations.
* Yield on pulverized gems increased by a factor of (1+calibration level).
* Essential compound creation requires (10-calibration) drops of each essence.
* How many drops of solution are produced for litmus test creation.

You do not need glassware in all chemistry labs, only as many as you want to be able to do the above tasks in at the same time. (Access to one is plenty for most players.)

= Basic Procedures =

== Essential Distillation ==

# Grab 10 deben of what you are going to create essence from, along with the correct set of spirits from the [[Chemistry/Essences | Essence Table]]
# Under the Manufacture menu on an upgraded chemistry lab
## Fill the alcohol lamp with the correct spirits.
## Essential Distillation/Place Essential Material...
## Essential Distillation/Start Essential Distillation
# Wait 2 teppy minutes
# Take/Essence from the chemistry lab

Notes:
# If you misclick on the Place Essential Material step you can select Remove essential material and Take/... from the lab, no harm done.
# If you insert the wrong set of spirits, you can Dispose from the chemistry lab menu. It dumps all the spirits so you have to start adding them all over again. You do not get the spirits back.
# Every essential distillation run requires exactly 10 deben of spirits in the alcohol lamp.
# Yield of drops of essence depend on the lowest quality spirit in the alcohol lamp. Fire spirits give 6 deben back (see next point), air 7, water 5, earth 4, life 8, ra 9, and anything mixture of spirits with grey spirits give back 3 debens only.
# The mixture of spirits needed depends on the optimal temperature for that item. Some items are made using Gray Spirits at the end of the temperature scale and so give reduced yield.
# Each step away from the optimal mixture reduces the yield by 1 deben.
# The output will depend on the lowest quality spirit used. For example, mixing air and fire spirits will give you a yield of 6 debens if the mixture is otherwise correct.
# If the temperature of the alcohol lamp is too far off, you will only get a 'Too hot' or 'Too cold' message. This is how the list below was created in the first place.

''Essence distillation is where you want several chemistry labs nearby. This is a great activity to be done in parallel and the two minute timer makes it quick to make a lot of essence fast.''

== Essential Compound Creation ==

Note that [[Advanced Chemistry 2]] is needed to mix [[Essential Compound]].

# Grab 10 deben each of 5 different essences (one deben less for each level of calibration your lab is)
# Using the chemistry lab, select Manufacture/Essential Compound/Add essence to add all five essences. The order of addition does not matter.
# Select Manufacture/Mix Compound. You will be asked for a name for the compound, please read the notes below carefully.
# Select Take/Essential Compound from the main menu.

Notes:
# Essential compound creation is instantaneous.
# Be very careful when naming compounds. There is a nice bug wherein two different but identically named compounds will sort into the same inventory slot. Which means what the resulting 2 debens of compound (after you take it) really are is pretty much unknown.
# If you mix a compound and cancle naming it, the compound will still get mixed, and it will be named "unknown".
# If you have precise calibration level 3 chemistry lab, the number of drops needed will be 7.

== Litmus Test Strips ==

Currently there are ten types of litmus test strips: positive, negative and one type for each attribute. [[Litmus Test | Instructions for making litmus test strips]]

== Essential Extract Creation ==

From the Manufacture/Extracts menu on the chemistry lab, pick which type of extract you want to make. Then select the essential compound you want to attempt to use for this extract. If you succeed in matching the request 3 deben of the resulting extract goes directly into your inventory. Every successful extract created in a lab causes all requests on that lab to be randomly redetermine.

Recipe lists for easy mixing of compounds can be found on the [[Chemistry/Extracts|Extracts]] page

= What It Makes =

*[[Gear Oil]] Which can be used to add a temporary boost to the tuning level of tuneable buildings

= How It Works =

Each essence has a value for each attribute between -3 and 3. Compounds are the sums of their essences so for each attribute they range between -15 and 15.

Attribute test strips return a color based on the value of that attribute divided by 5 rounding away from 0. The requirements for Extracts are based on the underlying number divided by 3 rounding away from 0. See the table bellow for detail.

Camels

2009-09-22T04:55:56Z

Warmerdam: add amount of straw eaten, mention camel milk.

Camels are fairly easy to raise, they just eat [[Straw]], approximately 120 per egyptian day per camel.

Camels require a [[Dromedary Pen]] to capture and keep. Dromedary pens must be built outside on sand.

=== Attracting Camels ===
Every day (Egypt Time) at midnight (also Egypt Time), a single camel is provided to the open pen with the most straw in each section of Egypt (narrowed down to chunks smaller than chariot regions, possibly 1k coord squares). If you do attract a camel, the amount of straw in the pen will become 0. Opening the pen door to catch a second wild camel will not result in the first camel escaping and wandering away.

====Personal experiences and theories on attracting camels====
*Nova: We got two camels - first night we got a female using an odd # of straw and on the 2nd night we got a male using an even # of straw. I forget the exact amounts but they where btwn 1500-1700.

*Elia: Got a female camel in a remote area, with 31 straw, at precisely 12:00am game time. This suggests that like in previous Tales, the wild camels arrive based on the most straw in local pens in the area where they are generated.

*Garai:I don't remember how much straw I used to get my first female camel but, the next 2 camels I got: female first with even # of straw second was a male with odd # of straw. So thinking it doesn't matter with odd or even #.

*Imhlat: We should distinguish between adding straw in odd/even amounts, and stocking the pen with odd/even amounts. I ADDED an even number of straw to my pen, and attracted a male camel.

*GiausBaltar: Falsified! I added an odd # of straw to the pen, leaving an odd number in the pen, and I recieved a male camel. Either the above is completely false, or the even/odd straw amounts are *at best* giving a probabalistic determination of sex.

*Rabble: I attracted a female on Peret I-8 with 12,000 straw, another female on Peret I-11 with 16,001, another female on Peret I-12 with 13,201 and a male on Peret I-17 with 16,000 straw. In each case, all straw was removed from the pen at 11:50pm game time and then replaced in one bulk amount. The alternating even and odd pattern didn't work for me as I got two females with odd amounts and both a male and female with even amounts.

*Khafra: I think that you just complicate the things. 5 cases doesn't make any reliable statistic. If you try your odd/even theory at least 100 times I'll believe it. For now the male/female distribution is completely random, there's no reliable info yet.

*Dionaea: I tested this a bit: 41 Straw was female, 42 straw was male, 43 straw was female, 44 straw was male. Currently 45 straw no camel yet but I would expect to see female.

*AquarianSankofa: DO NOT Use to large amounts of Straw. I put in 20K of Straw. All the straw was eaten to catch one male.

=== Use ===
You can slaughter a camel to receive:
* 6 [[produces::leather]]
* 10 [[produces::oil]]
* 30 [[produces::camel meat]]

Camels will produce [[produces::dung]]

Given a taste of [[honey]] they may produce [[Camel Milk]].

Sheep

2009-09-19T15:08:08Z

Warmerdam: /* Breeding */

{{Template:ItemInfo|weight=300|bulk=1|image=male_sheep.png|description=A sheep. Tasty.}}
Sheep are found in the wild. They can either be picked up or you can attempt to slaughter them (has a high chance of failing and the sheep escaping).

Sheep weigh in at 300 db each.

== Use ==
You can slaughter a sheep to receive:
* 2 [[produces::leather]]
* 10 [[produces::oil]]
* 6 [[produces::mutton]]

Sheep will produce [[produces::dung]] when they are in a pen.

== Breeding ==
To successfully breed sheep you must:
* Have a [[requires::Sheep Pen]] or [[requires::sheep farm]]
* Have [[requires::onions]] in your pen
* Have at least 1 male sheep and 1 female sheep in the pen
* Do not have the males and females separated

Sheep will not breed if there are more than 10 in one [[Sheep Pen]]

It appears to be normal for a breeding pair of sheep to produce no offspring and little or no dung for about 1.5 days realtime when first assembled. Stop staring at your sheep and go work on something else. [[User:JulianJaynes|JulianJaynes]] 16:24, 12 April 2009 (EST)

== Feeding ==

Domestic sheep eat [[Onions]] at a rate of 3 per 3 [[Time|teppy hours]] for males, 1 per 3 teppy hours for females.

If a structure runs out of food, the sheep stop breeding and stop producing dung, and will eventually sicken and die. Death occurs after 3 teppy days without food.

[[Modern Sheep Farm|Modern Sheep Farms]] allow the feeding of [[Thistles]] along with [[Onions]]. This greatly reduces the amount of [[Onions]] eaten.

== Dung ==

Sheep produce dung at a rate of 1 per 3 sheep per 3 teppy hours, e.g. 9 sheep produce 3 dung every 3 hours.

== Theories ==
* Sheeps <s>are less likely to</s> reproduce in pens where a slaughter has taken place
** Recently had more reproducing in the slaughter pen than the non-slaughter pen
** Probably not true. Sheep do not stud. If you kill a sheep, then you won't get any new sheep until the game reshuffles the pairs. It's not at all clear when this happens.
* Traffic plays a role in reproduction rates (You wouldn't want to be watched either)
** Probably not true. Mine breed frequently at 59% crowding in an actively used camp.
* The optimal ratio for breeding is 3:3 males:females
* To maximize dung production, fill a pen with just female sheep. A pen with only female sheep produces 2.67 dung per day per sheep, and consumes 8 onions per day per sheep (i.e. 3 onions per dung). Keep a separate breeding pen and manually move new females to your dung pen instead of slaughtering them, until you are producing dung as fast as you need.
* Sheep like <s>Barry</s> Baarry <s>Manilow</s> White

Warmerdam: improve formatting of lists.

{{Template:BuildingInfo|image=coop2.jpg|size=15x17|where=[[where::Small Construction Site on grass]]|description=For chickens and eggs.}}

= Source =
This building becomes available after you have learned the [[requires::Avian Selection]] tech.

= Cost =
* 50 [[requires::Boards]]
* 600 [[requires::Bricks]]
* 15 [[requires::Cut Stone]]
* 60 [[requires::Dried Flax]]

= Use =
Chicken Coops house [[produces::Chickens]] (Hens and Rosters), and they can breed and lay [[produces::Eggs]] here.

When an egg hatches into a chicken, it leaves behind a [[produces::Crushed Eggshell]] in the coop. A chicken in a coop can be slaughtered to yield [[produces::Chicken Meat]].

Chickens eat [[Barley]].

From T3:
* Hens eat about 5 Barley each per game day.
** You can keep 20 Hens in a coop.
** Hens produce 1 egg each per game day.
* Roosters eat abut 20 Barley each per game day.
* Eggs hatch 1 Hen (95%) or 1 Rooster (5%) per game day.
** You can put up to 100 eggs in a coop, but only 20 of them will hatch.
** If a rooster hatches, you will only get Roosters that day, and usually just one Rooster.

= Slats (copied from T3) =

The temperature inside a coop changes from hour to hour, depending largely on the Egyptian day/night cycle. As chickens thrive best within a certain temperature range, proper maintenance is an important part of raising poultry. Your tool for regulating temperature is opening and closing the ventilation slats in the coop. Slats can be fully open, mostly open, half open, slightly open, or closed.

* When the slats are '''open''', the coop gets hotter during the day and cooler at night.
* When the slats are '''closed''', the coop cools off during the day and stays warmer at night.

An additional factor to account for is that some days are warmer than others.

== Chicken Coop Temperature Control ==

This page describes the optimum temperatures, obtained by adjusting the Chicken Coop Slats, for obtaining Eggs and hatching Hens and Roosters. Stated briefly, each coop changes it's behavior once every 24 hours, at exactly midnight, and the user needs to adjust the ambient air slats to counteract the 24 hour driver.

This page discusses techniques for achieving a Chicken Coop temperature, at 6:00 AM each morning, that is the most conducive to:

* Hens laying Eggs (Warm at 6:10 AM)
* Eggs hatching to Roosters (Speculation - Warm at 6:10 AM, but only %5 probability)
* Eggs hatching to Hens (Speculation - Warm at 6:10 AM)

The Hens will lay eggs and (speculation the eggs will hatch) at any temperature, but your odds are better when the temperature is between 60 and 100 degrees. The temperature during the remainder of the 24 hour period is unimportant, except that you can't let the temperature get so far from nominal that you can't pull it back into the target range by 6:00 AM.

Hens will continue to lay eggs if Barley is available and the temperature is comfortable. Roosters don't seems to be required for anything. <== Comment from MarvL So you might as well give your Roosters to Balthazarr for reasearch ;) <== Response from Balthazarr

Hens will only lay, and eggs will only hatch, if some hens or some eggs have been in the coop for more than 24 hours. If you're short on Barley, you can add Hens at 5:30 AM and remove them again at 6:30 AM, to conserve Barley. Other than temperature, the program only checks the coops once per game day.

If the reported temperatures are not in the 60-100 degree range at 6:00 AM and 6:00 PM, you'll need to reset the slats. The thermometer is capped/bottomed at 120/20 degrees, but the Chicken Coop still knows how hot/cold it really is, and the probabilities are based on the real temperatures.

If your Chicken Coops have stalled, it's because the temperatures have gotten so high or so low that you're repeatedly falling outside of the optimum temperature band at 6:00 AM.

== Chicken Coop Characteristics ==

* The temperature of the outside ambient air varies sinusoidally. It is useful to think of the sun as heating up the outside ambient air. The greater the difference between the current coop temperature and the hypothetical ambient air temperature for that time of day, the greater the influence of the slat settings.
** The ambient air temperature is 20 degrees at 6:00 AM
** The ambient air temperature is 120 degrees at 6:00 PM.
** The dotted line on the graph indicates the ambient temperature.

* The user can influence the Chicken Coop temperature by setting the slats to control the amount of ambient air that's admitted.
** Fully Open Slats allow the ambient air to have full influence.
** Mostly Open Slats allow the ambient air to have 50% influence.
** Half Open Slats remove ambient air from consideration.
** Slightly Open Slats have the opposite effect of mostly open slats, who knows how.
** Closed Slats have the opposite effect of fully open slats, who knows how.
** Note that you will have to reverse the slats at 6:00 AM and 6:00 PM to maintain a consistent effect.

* Each Chicken Coop has it's own game controlled air conditioning unit that changes at exactly gameday midnight.
** Hot for this time of day will drive the temperature up for the next 24 hours, but more slowly than fully open/closed slats.
** Warm for this time of day will drive the temperature up for the next 24 hours, but more slowly than mostly open/slightly closed slats.
** There is no neutral mode. You should be so lucky.
** Cool for this time of day is the inverse of Warm.
** Quite Cool for for this time of day is the inverse of Hot.

== Coop Conditions ==
'''Chicken Coop conditions change every six hours'''
* Temperatures are calculated once every 15 game minutes, and individual Coops are not synchronized.
** The sun rises at exactly 6:00 AM, and the effect of ambient air switches to warming mode.
*** The temperature is capped at 120 degrees.
*** The temperature doesn't reset to 120 degrees, if you're running hot, you'll stay at 120 degrees for longer.
** The sun sets at exactly 6:00 PM, and the effect of ambient air switches to cooling mode.
*** The temperature is bottomed at 20 degrees.
*** The temperature doesn't reset to 20 degrees, if you're cold, you're running cold, you'll stay at 20 degrees for longer.
** The profile is vaguely sinusoidal.

* Midnight is the critical adjustment time, as that's when the time of day driver changes.
* Sunrise at 6:00 AM causes the effect of ambient air, and therefore the appropriate slat position, to reverse.
* Eggs are laid and hatched at 6:10 AM.
* Sunset at 6:00 PM causes the effect of ambient air, and therefore the appropriate slat position, to reverse.

== Factors ==
'''The game controlled driver and the user controlled slats are additive'''
* We've been monitoring 5 chicken coops, in adjacent locations, and have never seen mixed hot/cool drivers. They seem to be a mix of Quite Cool/Cool or else Warm/Hot. We haven't explored whether coops throughout Egypt behave this way.
* The 24 hour driver seems to be a constant.
* The effect of the slats depends on the temperature of the ambient air or, more specifically, the temperature differential.
** If you are close to the ambient temperature, the 24 hour driver will act as an offset.
*** This condition usually exists around noon and midnight, when the ambient air temperature is always 70 degrees.
** If you are way off of the ambient temperature, the slat settings will dominate.
*** This condition usually exists at 6:00 AM when the ambient air temperature is always 20 degrees.
*** This condition usually exists at 6:00 PM when the ambient air temperature is always 120 degrees.
** There will be a definite knee at 6:00 AM and 6:00 PM if you don't reverse the slat settings.
* The 24 hour driver and the Slat settings are additive but bounded at a Fully Open or Closed rate of change.
** You can't go up any faster than Hot or Fully Open/Closed during the Day/Night.
** Warm plus Mostly Open/Slightly Open during the Day/Night is the same as Hot.
** Warm/Slightly cool plus Slightly Open/Mostly Open during the Day/Night cancel each other.
** Cool plus Slightly Open/Mostly Open during the Day/Night is the same at Quite Cool.
** You can't go down any faster Quite Cool or Closed/Fully Open during the Day/Night.

== General Slat Setting ==
=== Half Open Slats ===
The following temperature profile was provided by a set of five adjacent Chicken Coops

The movement of these temperature is due entirely to the 24 hour driver. The user controlled flaps were set at neutral, or half open for this test.

=== The Balanced Approach ===
The optimum strategy is to check your Chicken Coops three times per day.
* Shortly after midnight, to respond to the new 24 hour drivers.
* Just before 6:10 AM to reverse the slat setting. If you switch production modes between all hens or all eggs, you'll lose the next 24 hours of production. There's a 24 hour waiting period when you reconfigure a coop.
* Just after 6:10 AM to collect the Eggs and/or Hens and to add Barley.
** You can actually collect them anytime during the next 24 hours, but you'll be too curious to wait.
** If you have both hens and eggs in a coop, production will stall unless you also have a rooster.
** If there's no Barley, the Chickens will leave.
** When eggs hatch you'll also get eggshells. You can leave them in the coop or gather them. It doesn't effect production.
* Noon doesn't matter, unless your coops have been running cold, and you want to yank the temperatures up a ways.
* Around 6:00 PM to reverse the slat settings.

At 6:00 PM we reversed the slats so that they would continue to balance (oppose) the current 24 hour driver.

We weren't around at midnight when the 24 hour drivers randomly switched from Cold to Hot. Consequently, the temperature zoomed, but we knew we had plenty of wiggle room.

The new hens in coop #T1 were still on a 24 hour production hold, but all of the eligible coops produced eggs.
