Line 142: − − ==Design Decisions== − Is lemonade made at the beginning of the day (make all available lemonade at once) or on the fly (a customer asks for lemonade and it is made for them)? This is important as it impacts the resources from day to day. In the former, normally non-perishable objects like cups will be used if they can make another drink (even beyond demand), however in the latter, it makes the game easy if you stock up on resources and slowly sell them each day. This is usually mitigated by having perishable resources (lemons, etc) and variable prices. Line 129:

Any interest in helping can be directed towards project leader [[User:Qalthos|Nathaniel Case]] as well as any of the other listed active members. Lemonade Stand is to be considered an open project, which is currently undoergoing active development for the RIT fall quarter 2010. Nathaniel will continue to have interest in the project and will continue to provide assistance and input as time allows beyond this time.

==Structure==
The game's 'day' is split into four parts
For more detailed information on how to implement new things, please see the [[Lemonade_Stand/Developer_Documentation|Developer Documentation]]
The game's 'day' is split into 3 parts (Start of day, Day occurs, and End of day)

==Difficulty Settings==
==Difficulty Settings==
*The current (as of 2.0) difficulty is now referred to as Impossible
===Easy===
*Hard difficulty is the same as Impossible, but tells you your gross profit and expenses before the counting game
*Supplies will not perish
*Normal difficulty is the same as Hard, but tells you your net profit as well.
*Prices are fixed at multiples of 25 and products yield more money per sale.
*Easy difficulty is the largest difference, with simpler prices (multiples of 25) and a larger profit margin.
*Subtotals are listed for all math problems
*Math-based screens will not close while there are problems (trying to buy too many supplies, not collecting correct change)
===Normal===
*Supplies will not perish
*Prices are more complex multiples of 5 with slightly smaller profit margins
*Subtotals are listed for all math problems
*Math-based screens will not close while there are problems (trying to buy too many supplies, not collecting correct change)
===Hard===
*Supplies will perish
*Prices are the same as Normal
*Subtotals are listed for all math problems
*Math-based screens will allow you to give bad answers (buy too many supplies, not collecting correct change)
===Impossible===
*Supplies will perish
*Prices are not multiples of 5
*Subtotals are not listed for math problems
*Math-based screens will allow you to give bad answers (buy too many supplies, not collecting correct change)

==Helping Out==
One of the things we always need are new [[Lemonade Stand/Events|random events]] to make the game more interesting.<br/>
Another thing which is always useful is submitting new [[Lemonade Stand/Art|artwork]].<br/>

This becomes even more difficult when moving to a graphical environment. For every localized region we will need a different set of graphics depending on what the stand is selling.
