This flag is part of Ares. Do not use it without Ares installed.



This flag is introduced as part of Ares' new control over AI factory cloning.

Vanilla Game Behaviour

In the vanilla game, you could make the AI construct multiple factories by using cloned BuildingTypes with TechLevel=-1 and AIBuildThis=yes. However, any time the AI constructed a unit, each factory would spurt out one of these units. In other words, the AI would build a second copy of every unit.

Ares Behaviour

Ares alters the vanilla game behaviour so that this cloning issue no longer occurs when the AI owns more than one of any factory. If however, modders wish to turn the cloning behaviour back on, then they should create a section marked [GlobalControls], add this flag, and set it to yes. This will re-enable the factory cloning for AI players.
