A structure that opens for business having been built rather than captured creates one aircraft of the first PadAircraft entry for its own house. The aircraft appears at the structure’s center at ground level, facing the direction its type poses at, is put on guard, and enters radio contact with the structure, which tethers it. SeparateAircraft=yes suppresses the gift outright.
The flag is also the last of the structure tests behind the rating a computer house gives each candidate for its ion cannon, where it selects AIIonCannonHelipadValue.
The free aircraft comes from the first entry of PadAircraft, which must name at least one type — an empty list crashes the game before a match starts, whether or not any structure carries this flag.
