Test assessment for Unity candidates

Test project for applicants: Requires Unity 2018.3.0f2 or higher (in older ones some models can be broken)

Goal: Implement a simple city builder where you can place and move buildings and produce resources from these buildings.

Please, don't spend more than 6-8 hours on it.
Please, concentrate on data structures, separation of concerns and architecture of the game. UX, usability and prettines are not important at all.
If you didn't implement all features - it's fine, feature's list is pretty big. Main goal for us is to see an architecture behind.
In the end, please, provide a description explaning why you did this task the way you did (why did you choose certain architecture, UI management, data structures, etc) and what would you do differently if you would have more time.

Desired set of features:

The game should have two main modes:

Regular mode: in which player can select a building by clicking on it and see a building name on top of it and current production progress (or can start a new production if no production is running)
Build mode: the player can place a new building or move an existing building when player presses 'build mode' he should see a simple list with building's names and their prices where he can choose a new building to place. Or the player can either select and move an existing building on the grid.
Buildings should not be placeable on cells occupied by other buildings
Placing a building cost resources
When building is placed it should go through construction phase first (simple progressbar on top of the building) for 10 seconds before it can produce anything.

Building types

3 Types of production buildings:

'Residence' - a building which produces automatically 100 gold every 10 seconds. After production is finished, the next one starts automatically. Placing a building cost 100 gold
'Wood production building' - a building which player first have to select and press 'start production' (just a simple button which appears on top of the building when we select it) and after it should start producing 50 wood in 10 seconds. Placing a building cost 150 gold
'Steel production building' - same as wood production but produces steel instead. Produces 50 steel in 10 seconds. Placing a building cost 150 gold and 100 wood
Player should also be able to select a building in the regular mode by clicking on it and see a simple progressbar of current production progress.

OPTIONAL: 2 Types of decoration buildings:

'Bench' - a simple bench decoration which player can place. Placing cost 150 gold and 50 steel
'Tree' - a simple decoration which player can place.
Placing cost 50 gold and 200 wood
