Ah, yes, that was right. It was 3A. 3B pertains to Lot Class, which determines what sort of social groups are prone to populating it. In the game, it is compared for equivalency to a constant value, and I believe that was 0x4000, which corresponded to High? It is not apparently a flag bit, as they test for it using ==. It is unclear how this value is determined in the fist place, as the criteria are unknown and likely rather arbitrary.

Grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I cannot accept, and the wisdom to hide the bodies of those I had to kill because they pissed me off.

Well 3A *did* exist in FT... ???

But not in whatever log originates from 2006, which is definitely a postexpansions log. Since AL does not imply the existence of FT, you can't test on 3A and not barf if the user is running one of the older expansions. I do not know when 3A first appeared, but it is definitely not all-versions testsafe.

No I agree with that, just getting it clear in my own head we're all talking about the same field. I wonder why they labelled it Ambient then? I thought it was something to do with temperature.

Nice dirty trick! Thanks!
