The Activity Configuration File

The different types of Activities are configured in an Activity Configuration File which is referenced by the ActivityManager. To configure your own game you can update this XML file (or create a new one) to define new buildings, costs, activities and more.

The configuration file uses an XML format to store the data. The XML is a serialised representation of a List of ActivityTypeData.

 The following table lists the elements of the XML file. 

Parameter	Details	Sample
type	Unique id of the activity.	<type>GATHER</type>
durationInSeconds	Time it takes to complete the activity (in seconds).	<durationInSeconds>20</durationInSeconds>

rewardAmount	Amount of reward received.	<rewardAmount>200</rewardAmount>
