Default Re: Babylon 5 Mod

Nomor,

These are "dummy abilities" that force the AI to build specific facilities on a planet, as opposed to the "generic abilities" like "SpaceYard" that would never have the AI building Manufacturing facilities because there is a facility with greater spaceyeard capabilities (namely, the spaceyard itself). They are used only to link a specific facility type to a specific planet type, they mean nothing in and of themselves. They are needed because in this mod facilities have far more abilities than in the basic game.

For instance, "Quantum Reactor" is used as a tag so we can tell the AI to build a depot in that planetary slot. "Ship Auxiliary Control" tells it to build a manufacturing colony.

Does this explanation make sense?
