This page should correctly be named "[CellTags]"; it is wrong due to technical restrictions.

CellTags bind a [[[Triggers|Trigger]] with a map cell. When something enters this cell/crosses its vertical or horizontal coordinate, they notify their Trigger of this, thus possibly activating some of its Events.

The [CellTags] section takes the following format:

[CellTags]
COORDS=TRIGGER_ID

Meanings of each string

String	Meaning
COORDS	This is a number that stores the coordinates of the target cell. Their format depends on the value of [Basic]→NewINIFormat= : when it's less than four, the number is X * 128 + Y, otherwise it's X * 1000 + Y. The X and Y coordinates can be seen in the status bar when hovering the mouse over the cell in FinalSun/FinalAlert 2.
TRIGGER_ID	The Tag's ID. This refers to the Trigger, that should be notified when this CellTag is activated.
