Meanings of each string
String Meaning
Index This is an index for the list. Any unique string without equals signs will do.
Owner The Name of the House who should receive this VehicleType.
ID The ID of this VehicleType.
HEALTH The amount of health this VehicleType has, expressed in 1/256ths of its total Strength=. (0-256)
X The X coordinate of the cell which this VehicleType should be placed in.
Y The Y coordinate of the cell which this VehicleType should be placed in.
FACING The 256-based facing of this VehicleType. 0 stands for game North (North East of the screen) and increasing numbers rotate clockwise. (0,32..256)
MISSION The Name of the Mission this VehicleType should be placed in.
TAG The ID of the Tag attached to this VehicleType, or <none> if no tag should be attached.
VETERANCY The veteran level of this VehicleType multiplied by 100 - 0 for 'rookie', 100 for 'Veteran', 200 for 'Elite'. Note that you can assign other values, e.g. if you assign 75 then the VehicleType will be created with 75/100ths of experience necessary for Veteran level already accumulated. (0/100/200/0-200)
GROUP The Group of this VehicleType.
HIGH If set, the VehicleType is spawned above ground level. Whether it is on ground or on bridge.
FOLLOWS_INDEX Index of the VehicleType to follow this VehicleType. This causes the follower unit to perfectly mirror the movement of the parent unit. Like in trains, the first carriage will follow the engine, the second carriage will follow the first carriage, and so on.

In addition to movement, followers mirror the ownership of the parent unit: If the parent unit switches houses, via a trigger or script, the follower units automatically do so as well.
