+===== Patcher Continuous State =====
 ===== Description =====
-This functor treats cell values (landscape map) as stocks of a continuous variable by multiplying the cell values per its spatial dimension (ha). It then harvests quantities of these cells based on a total demand quantity (quota) and a probability map for choosing the cells to be harvested (e.g. profitability), resulting in a depleted map of stock values. The harvest is split in patches whose dimension distribution and forms are inputs.
+Generate new patches of a certain class or category.
+===== Inputs =====
+^ Name ^ Type ^ Description ^
+| Continuous Landscape | [[Map Type]]  | Map of stocks. Each cell represent the amount of stock stored (in units per hectare).  |
+| Probabilities  | [[Map Type]]  | Map of spatial probabilities.  |
+| Quota | [[Real Value Type]]  | Accumulation quota (in units).  |
+| Mean | [[Real Value Type]]  | Patch mean (in hectares).  |
+| Variance | [[Real Value Type]]  | Patch variance (in hectares).  |
+| Isometry | [[Real Value Type]]  | Patch isometry.  |
+===== Optional Inputs =====
+^ Name ^ Type ^ Description ^ Default Value ^
+| Neighbor Window Lines  | [[Positive Integer Value Type]]  | Number of lines of the neighborhood search window. | 3  |
+| Neighbor Window Columns  | [[Positive Integer Value Type]]  | Number of lines of the neighborhood search window.  | 3  |
+| Prune Factor  | [[Real Value Type]]  | A multiple of the quantity of cells to be changed. This is used in order to specify the size of the vector where cells are ranked for subsequent draw. Prune factor multiplies the expected number of cells to be changed to set the quantity of possible cells, based on their spatial probability, that take part in the selection mechanism of new patch nuclei. Typically, increasing this value also increases the stochasticity of selection of patch pivot cells.  | 10  |
