Game.FormatTags

Assembly:
Assembly-CSharp

Namespace: Game

Type: enum

Base: System.Int32 (System.Enum)

Summary: FormatTags is an enumeration used by the game to identify named format/features/tags present on content, prefabs, or configuration data. Each member represents a specific feature, fix, resource type or content marker that the game (or mods/tools) can detect and act upon when loading or processing content. Use the named values to make code more readable and robust than relying on raw integer values.

---

Fields

• ShortLaneOptimization Represents content or code paths that relate to a short-lane optimization. Likely used to enable/identify optimizations for lane-related logic.

• HomelessAndWorkerFix Marks content or compatibility code addressing homeless/worker behavior fixes.

• CompanyAndCargoFix Indicates fixes or compatibility adjustments related to companies and cargo systems.

• TradeCostFix Identifies content or patches that change or fix trade cost calculations.

• TerrainSystemCleanup Represents tags for terrain system cleanup work — e.g., fixes or improved terrain handling.

• FishResource Marks content that introduces or depends on a fish resource (resource type, prefab, or gameplay feature).

• AquacultureLandAmbience Tags assets or behaviour related to aquaculture land ambience (sound/visual ambience for aquaculture areas).

• BpPrefabData Indicates presence of blueprint prefab data (Bp = blueprint) or special prefab metadata.

• ContentPrefabInCityConfiguration Marks content prefabs that are referenced in city configuration files — ensures they are treated accordingly when loading city configs.

• SeagullAmbience Tags assets or systems that provide seagull ambience (audio/visual elements).

• BPDLCAchievement Indicates blueprint/DLC achievement related content or metadata.

• StandingLegOffset Marks content that requires or includes a standing leg offset adjustment (animation/pose offset for standing entities).

(Underlying values start at 0 and increment by 1 unless explicitly assigned.)

Properties

• None. FormatTags is a plain enum; it does not expose properties.

Constructors

• None (implicit). Enums in C# do not have public constructors; values are defined at compile time.

Methods

• None. No instance methods are defined on the enum type itself beyond those inherited from System.Enum/System.ValueType (ToString, HasFlag, etc.).

Usage Example

// Example: checking a tag value stored as an int or when reading content metadata.
// Assume `tagValue` is an int read from a content file or manifest.
int tagValue = /* read from data */;
Game.FormatTags tag = (Game.FormatTags)tagValue;

switch (tag)
{
    case Game.FormatTags.FishResource:
        // register fish resource handling
        break;
    case Game.FormatTags.SeagullAmbience:
        // enable seagull ambience for this prefab
        break;
    default:
        // default handling
        break;
}

// Example: testing by name (safer than relying on numeric values)
if (Enum.TryParse<Game.FormatTags>("TradeCostFix", out var parsedTag))
{
    // use parsedTag
}

// Note: do not depend on specific underlying integer values unless the format
// explicitly documents them. Use enum names for clarity and forward-compatibility.
