In a nutshell, it serves as the Information/Command Centre for every selectable object in MONOPOLY CITY, including entire city blocks and individual businesses. As an example of the MPP's function and power, let's focus on one of the most important activities in the game -- constructing a new business. Constructing a New Business This five-step sequence shows how the Multi-Purpose Panel is used to construct a Book Store. 5. Before finalizing your building, make any desired adjustments to the number of Floors, the Build Quality and the Build Style. Note: Adjustment of the number of Floors and Build Quality affects the cost of construction and the capacity of the store. Build Style adjustments do not affect the construction price of the building. When you're satisfied with all of your adjustments, click the Accept button to activate the Book Store's construction. The green "bounding box" surrounding the building and the new information displayed within the MPP confirms your selection. Adjusting the Prices and Stock Level Having built a Book Store, you'll probably want to tinker with the price settings and stock ordering. Select the Book Store and then click on the Business Adjustments button (the orange button marked with a plus and minus sign to the left of the MPP). This, too, will bring up the Business Adjustment Panel, where you can tinker to your heart's content. 1 2 3 4 5 1.
