This tag determines what type of object a BuildingType produces. Although it accepts any string from the list↓, only four of them will actually work after going through a filtering routine:

Allowed values
AircraftType
This value indicates that this building can manufacture AircraftTypes. It is not required for this structure to double as an aircraft docking structure.
BuildingType
This value indicates that this building can manufacture other BuildingTypes.
InfantryType
This value indicates that this building can manufacture InfantryTypes. Template:TTL is not obeyed, and actual exit coords are controlled by the Template:TTL, Template:TTL and Template:TTL flags.
UnitType
This value indicates that this building can manufacture ground vehicles (with Template:TTL) or naval ships (with Template:TTL). Mind that a ground vehicle factory without Template:TTL will have certain side-effects.
Be aware that all vehicles associated with this factory MUST specifically list this factory in its Template:TTL list, or there is a possibility that you will be faced with the NCO Bug.
Internal meaning
Internally, the value of Template:TTL 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 RTTI ID number for every Factory.
Although VesselType as well as CloningType are sometimes mentioned in Rules(md).ini, they are not valid values.
