It doesn't actually exist. So by requiring it, yes, it disables things.Quote:

The other thing is if you include a "and not" it allows you to branch a building complex out and let one faction or culture get one variant, and another get another - normally that would cause an error message, but if you inlude "and not hidden_resource not_here" it doesn't do anything but get rid of that error message (although it makes the level not appear in the building browser - but branching complexes is much more worth it in our opinion). So we use it a lot overall.
Thank you both for the education.
