THG2

Sprites placed on the map. A pure sprite (flag 0x1000) is a picture drawn where it stands: a tree top, a glow, a doodad's overlay. Without that flag the record is a unit sprite, and the game creates a unit of that type when the map loads; that is how StarEdit places the Installation's doors and traps. Flag 0x8000 starts such a unit disabled.

Example#

Two records: a pure sprite, drawn and nothing more, and an Installation door, which the game makes into a unit of that type when the map loads. Its disabled flag makes it start closed.
