* Fixing bugs for external dwelling bonus of Golem Factory.
[Problem]
The occupied Golem Factory on adventure map doesn't give
the player corresponding weekly growth bonus.
[Solution]
1. Add the dwelling (of multiple generators) to a player's dewelling set.
2. Created helper function to calculate external dwelling bonus
points.
[Test]
Manual testing on the map, works fine.
