Advice required on machinery on ships

[sepesh]

I'm not entirely sure this is the correct forum, but it appears most relevant.

I am doing a bit of planning in relation to a future character, and I am stuck. On the wiki, when it says that machinery/equipment can be built outside, or only in buildings, does this include ships/water vehicles, or is this literally just outside in towns or in buildings. Also, do "buildings" include things such as ship cabins, or buildings/rooms that are buildable on ships?

I'm looking at things like dessicators and apothecary tables if it is relevant to getting a correct reply/varies dependant on what object it is.

Many thanks in advance.

I think the wiki is pretty specific in these cases. If it says building, then it's in a building. If it says the name of a ship, it can be built on a ship...

These are examples:

http://wiki.cantr.net/index.php/Drying_rack
http://wiki.cantr.net/index.php/Dessicator

Can look at this as well

That's what I feared. What about the extra buildings on ships? Cabins, store holds and all of them? Are they still on a ship, or are they technically "buildings" in the wiki sense of the word.

Take a look at the page of the "extra buildings" on a ship.

http://wiki.cantr.net/index.php/Large_cargo_hold

it gives a specail category for items which cannot be build on a ship. But read for your self.

Thanks a lot for the help! Those two pages have answered my questions perfectly.
