Flag: BaseNormal
File(s): Rules(md).ini
Values: Boolean values: yes or no, true or false, 1 or 0
Default: yes
Applicable to: BuildingTypes


Specifies whether or not this building type expands the area in which you can place further buildings. Generally, base defenses do not expand the player's build area while production buildings do.

The distance you may place new buildings away from a building type with BaseNormal=yes set is determined by the new building type's Adjacent flag.

Inconsistencies in Yuri's Revenge

It seems that the developers forgot to add BaseNormal=no to some building types that should not have had the default BaseNormal=yes. The most obvious examples of this are two of the defense buildings, Yuri's Psychic Tower (YAPSYT) and the Allied Gap Generator (GAGAP), both of which expand the player's build area whilst the Tesla Coil and the Prism Tower do not. This was corrected in the UMP.
