Military units and structures

Some units and structures are marked as Military units or Military structures and are high priority targets for enemy forces. They will be attacked on sight by:

• Biters, spitters, and worms.
• Turrets, combat robots, and personal laser defense.
• The player, when holding down "shoot enemy" (spacebar).

There are a few exceptions:

• Artillery turrets and Artillery wagons will not attack units, they only attack structures.
• Biters and spitters will not attack construction robots or logistic robots.

Military units and structures are identified by a hard coded flag on certain prototypes. This cannot be changed by modding. The military prototypes are listed in the table below.
