Can be set to 'true' or 'false' and specifies whether or not this object gets a deploy cursor when selected by the player thus allowing it to 'simple' deploy - that is, it does not 'deploy into' something but deploys to perform some other function such as activating a weapon. The logic attached to this tag allows transformation from one image (the unit) to another (say a different unit) through use of the UnloadingClass tag.

Notes

• When deploying into the UnloadingClass, note that only the image gets transferred from that object to the deploying object. It seems to have no effect on weapons, hit points, armor, etc. The weapon used by the deployed form is the secondary weapon of the deploying original unit by default, though this may be modulated by the DeployFireWeapon setting.
• Turrets:
  • If the original vehicle has {{{1}}}, but the UnloadingClass does not have a turret, the deployed vehicle will still be able to fire in all directions, as if its weapon had OmniFire.
  • If the original vehicle does NOT have a turret (Turret=no), but the UnloadingClass DOES have one (Turret=yes), the UnloadingClass graphic will be displayed with a turret, however the turret will not turn, but point straight forward. The deployed unit will turn on the spot to face targets, and fire its weapon at a frontal facing.
• The deploying vehicle becomes unable to move while deployed.
• If no unloading class is set, the vehicle will keep its undeployed image, but all other effects still apply.
