FarmVille 3 - Live Event

About this model

Zynga Test

This diagram represents a complex system designed to simulate a farming and resource management scenario centered around the production and utilization of pumpkins. It closely models a cycle of planting pumpkins, using them to produce various goods, and interacting with additional elements such as health management and ghost encounters in a thematic setting. Key components include pools for storing resources like coins, pumpkins, pumpkin pies, pumpkin cheesecake, pumpkin pie milkshakes, pumpkin spice lattes, scarecrow health, and lanterns. The system is dynamic, with converters playing a crucial role in transforming pumpkins into different products through processes involving additional ingredients and delays simulating growth and production times.

Moreover, the diagram incorporates elements of strategy and interaction with "ghosts," showcased by the mechanics involving scarecrow health and specific products that can be offered to ghosts, possibly affecting the gameplay or system state. Resource flows are controlled through a network of connections indicating resource conversions, delays representing process times, and drains simulating resource consumption or loss. This elaborate setup not only serves as a resource management and simulation tool but also encapsulates elements of strategy through the maintenance of scarecrow health and the management of ghost encounters, providing a multi-faceted approach to understanding and engaging with the system's economy.

This public Machinations diagram, “FarmVille 3 - Live Event”, was shared in the Machinations Community by NG.

Its description refers to pools, drains, converters and delays. Names that appear in the description include “ghosts”.

You can open the original diagram in the Machinations app, press Play to watch how resources move through it, and change its values to see how the system responds. Machinations is a visual tool for designing, simulating and balancing game economies and other systems, where resources flow through sources, pools, drains, converters and gates. In a diagram, a source creates resources, a pool stores them, a drain removes them, a converter changes one resource into another and a gate decides where they go next. Pressing Play runs the model, so you can watch stocks build up, flows change and feedback loops take effect over time.
