Can be set to 'yes' or 'no', and determines if helicopter-like aircraft will move in-between shots at a target. If set to 'no', the aircraft will hover over their target until they have used all of their ammo, or kill it*. Named after American comedian Jerome 'Curly' Howard (with a typo, of course), one of the Three Stooges.

Bugs/Side-Effects/Unexpected Limitations * In Tiberian Sun, if disabled, all armed aircraft with a ROT>1 projectile (i.e. those that don't perform a 'sweep' over their target, like the Orca Bomber, but instead hover over or near it) will not expend their ammo unless they change their position. The aircraft will continue to fire at the target endlessly until it is destroyed, or the aircraft switches its position.
