-	It is possible that [[Signamancy]] is involved with the function of buildings, even ones that seem to have no obvious use. To a casual observer, many of these buildings will be useless, but a [[Signamancer]] would see underlying function of each building. The buildings may represent a physical manifestation or reference point for the various mechanics and other city rules of [[Erfworld]] and interacting with them in various ways can change their efficacy. Even if the slaughterhouse doesn't actually get used, it represents and facilitates the production of rations. Even the 'useless' buildings may represent a 'passive' bonus (a small bonus that doesn't need be checked on to work) rather than an 'active' bonus (a large bonus that does have to be checked on to work) such as that provided by a slaughterhouse. An amphitheater may influence loyalty while the melting ice of an icehouse may 'preserve' food, decreasing the cost of rations. It is possible that bonuses may stack with each other; that the extra rations produced by a slaughterhouse may stack with the preservation of an icehouse to provide particularly cheap rations.	+	It is possible that [[Signamancy]] is involved with the function of buildings, even ones that seem to have no obvious use.
