[MYBOULDER]      ; example rock overlay beside cliff ramps
DrawFlat=no
IsARock=yes

IsARock has two separate effects: one on the overlay’s own depth, and one on objects standing on a slope beside it.

On its own artwork, it cancels the one-level lift that DrawFlat=no applies, so the overlay sorts at its real ground height while still sorting as upright. With DrawFlat=yes there is no lift, and the key does not change how the overlay is drawn.

It also brings infantry and vehicles standing on a slope in front of a rock beside them. An object on a slope checks the cells to its south, east and south-east. If one of them holds an IsARock=yes overlay, the object is drawn in front of it instead of disappearing into it.
