Flag:	IsBase
File(s):	Rules(md).ini
Values:	N/A (see below)
Applicable to:	BuildingTypes

psst....IsBase isn't a Rules flag

That's the comment that appears in the Red Alert 2 rules.ini file against the Template:TTL flag.

This tag is valid in Tiberian Sun and Firestorm, and appears to have the same function as Red Alert 2' Template:TTL tag, which it is occasionally confused with, hence the presence of the comment.

In Red Alert 2, this flag is mistakenly included on [CAOUTP] (the Tech Outpost) as IsBase=yes instead of Template:TTL=yes. However, as IsBase isn't parsed(?) and Template:TTL defaults to yes, the intended effect is achieved anyway.

-Whether or not this was valid in previous games, I'm not sure (someone please comment on this) however the tag appears in the Tiberian Sun rules.ini file several times and the above comment does not.
