Can be set to 'true' or 'false' and determines if this structure has a radial indicator which is displayed when the player selects it. Prior to Ares 0.3, it was restricted to BuildingTypes which also have CloakRadiusInCells=, GapRadiusInCells=, SuperGapRadiusInCells=, or PsychicDetectionRadius= set as those properties determine the radius (range) of the indicator. With Ares, it can be used on any TechnoType, although units only support non-sweeping, non-concentric radial indicators.

Editor's note: In the base games, the radial indicator is also restricted to a BuildingType's Primary (as can be seen with Yuri's Gattling Turret when it has HasRadialIndicator=yes). Also, this doesn't do ANYthing when the weapon has an infinite range (Range=-2), as in: the indicator is not displayed at all.

All of these limitations can be overcome by using RadialIndicatorRadius to specify the radius of the indicator.

On BuildingTypes, the type of indicator can be controlled with ConcentricRadialIndicator.
