Flag:	Adjacent
File(s):	Rules(md).ini
Values:	Unsigned integers: All non-negative whole numbers from 0 to either 32767, 2147483647 or 4294967295.
Special Values:	-1 to -2147483647
Default:	3
Applicable to:	BuildingTypes

After constructing a building, human players are only allowed to place it near their existing structures, at a maxiumum distance away in cells, as specified by Adjacent=, provided those nearby existing structures have BaseNormal=yes set.

Adjacent=0 means the new building must be placed in contact with an existing building without gap.

Adjacent=1 means there can be at most a 1 cell gap between an existing building and the new building.

Notes

AI players use a different system, AIBaseSpacing is used instead of Adjacent, where the distance specified is a preferred spacing rather than a limit.

Bugs/Side-Effects/Unexpected Limitations

Specifying too large a value, such as Adjacent=10000, will affect the game's speed.

Negative values will result in players being unable to place BuildingTypes, but the AI can still place them normally.
