Normally building placement by AI players follows AIBaseSpacing=, but there are cases where a building is expected to be surrounded by walls, or has a bib where units might accumulate, this tag can be added to instruct the AI to build it 1 cell farther away from other structures.
Note
This was originally added to the Weapons Factories, Barracks and Refineries but was later commented out by Westwood, as it can cause the AI to struggle to place large structures when space is already limited, making the AI develop its base very slowly. If the AI can't build a Weapons Factory, Barracks or Refinery within the space it has, it obviously won't be an effective enemy.
