the box next to Structure Already Built.
❍
To change the placement of a structure in the Build List, select the structure. Then, click the UP or
DOWN buttons to move it in the Build List.
❍
To remove a structure from the Build List and the map, select the structure. Then, click DELETE.
BUILD LIST PROPERTIES
For each structure in the Build List, you can assign properties to it.
✯ Z. The Z distance refers to the elevation of the structure above or below the terrain. A figure of 0 is on
the terrain, and negative values embed the structure in the terrain.
✯ Angle. A structure can be placed at any angle of the circle. A figure of 0 points the structure due East,
and positive value turn it towards the North.
EA TIP: For best visual effect, place your structures at an angle of –45 degrees.
✯ Rebuilds. You can set the number of times that the structure can be rebuilt by the player if it is
destroyed. In the Rebuild drop-down, select NONE to disallow rebuilds or UNLIMITED to allow
perpetual rebuilding.
✯ Power Used. The structure’s power meter indicates the total amount of power used by the side after the
selected structure has been built—assuming that all previous structures in the Build List have been
created and are still standing.
✯ Object Properties. A placed structure is also an object that has configurable properties. For more
information,
