The NPatch provides an expanded AI power plant selection system so that it chooses power more carefully or selects different power plants. This is especially useful, and necessary, with fourth sides and it is very useful if you have added different power plants and you want variety with the way the AI handles power production.

The system is relatively simple, and straightforward. It introduces two brand new tags that go on the side entry, and not a country. This distinction is very important so do not confuse the two. The first thing you must do to enable this selection system is to add PowerPlant=[BuildingType] to the side entry. For example, you would use PowerPlant=GAPOWR for the Allies (aka [GDI]). Then PowerPlants=[BuildingTypes] accepts a list of various power plants, which can be repeated if you wish.

If you use this system, the PowerPlant tag must always be valid or bad things will happen. Should you not want this system, simply ignore the tags, and it will not be used, which is okay since the PowerPlant tag is automatically mapped to GDIPowerPlant, NodRegularPower and ThirdPowerPlant.
