I don't think the facilities are all worth the same 'points'.

But they should all add to the score.

A hospital should be 'worth' more than a store... ???


I'd start with a sore of 10 and go up from there?

Community hall, Police, Fire say 10 each

Store, fuel, mechanic say 20 each

Nurse medical facility, RFDS clinic say 30

Doctors say 40

Hospital say 100


Ambos tend to be 'attached' to hospitals/nurse medical centers so I'd 
not add them.
