Flag: Factory
File(s): rules(md).ini
Values: special strings
Special Values: none
Default: <none>
Applicable to: BuildingTypes


This tag determines what type of object this BuildingType produces.
Although it accepts any string from the list below (Internal meaning), only five of them will actually work after going through a filtering routine, these being:

It is sometimes spoken of the strings VesselType as well as CloningType.
However, they neither work in TS/FS nor do they in RA2/YR.

Internal meaning

Internally, the "Factory" is used to determine what something is.
If - for instance - a pointer to a TechnoType (by origin) is given over to a function, the function could get the TechnoType's "Factory" and determine whether it's a Building or an Infantry, Unit or Aircraft.
This works using an ID number for every Factory.
The available "factories" are the following:
