DESCRIPTION

Welcome to the Small Businesses Mod! This is a mod created to represent Small Businesses within Victoria 3 in cities. Small Businesses employ laborers, clerks, shopkeepers, and eventually machinists to create manufactured goods, such as groceries, small arms, furniture, clothing, and more! They work at a more efficient rate than factories, requiring less goods and less laborers to produce more amounts of goods. The Small Business building will show up under development in the building tabs (I have attempted for it to show up under Urban instead, but have had little success). Small Businesses level up at the same rate as Urban Centers do -- based on the urbanization level of the state. From my experience in-game with the mod, small businesses tend to have the highest or second highest wages/the most efficient buildings. One key difference between small businesses and factories is that they do not have the publicly traded production method; instead, they just have privately owned, government run, and worker co-operatives. If you would like to use this mod as part of your mod or collection, go right ahead, but please credit me and let me know (so that I can check it out!). Same goes for localization for other languages -- if you want to do that, I would be happy to include it! I am relatively new at modding, and this is my first (published) attempt at mods, so any and all critiques, tips, and helpful comments are appreciated! Have a good day and enjoy the mod! Update 12/12/2022: Modified worker numbers to include more shopkeepers per level and reduce laborers and clerks. Modified machine production method to include an unscaled modifier that increases throughput output for small businesses instead of direct increases to outputs (untested).
