'''<code>BaseNormal</code>''' controls whether or not you will be allowed to build [[adjacent]] to this [[BuildingType]], assuming you own it.

Most obvious examples of this are two of the defense buildings, Yuri's Psychic Tower (YAPSYT) and the Allied Gap Generator (GAGAP) - both of them expand the player's build area, while neither the Tesla Coil nor the Prism Tower does.

Specifies whether or not this BuildingType expands the area in which you can place further BuildingTypes. Generally, base defenses do not expand the player's build area but 'normal' buildings do.

The distance you may place new BuildingTypes away from a BuildingType with Template:TTL set is determined by the new BuildingType's Template:TTL flag.

Inconsistencies in YR

It seems that the developers forgot to add Template:TTL to some BuildingTypes that should not have had the default Template:TTL. The most obvious examples of this are two of the defense buildings, Yuri's Psychic Tower (YAPSYT) and the Allied Gap Generator (GAGAP), both of which expand the player's build area whilst the Tesla Coil and the Prism Tower do not. This was corrected in the UMP.
