I am not sure yet should it get own building preset or is dropdown in building type enough. But tent icon is definitely bad. |

Problem with barracks is that distinct building type is quite dubious and there is much greater risk of people misusing it for the current use. In fact the second icon (with flag) would make it even worse: if soldiers leave and flag is removed then it should be still tagged Having it as dropdown of building type makes it more clear that it is about building type, not about building use. In fact, do we have preset for things currently used as barracks? |
I totally agree the existing preset covers the situation where one can map an active military barracks and if wants to tags the building on top of that can be best served by the dropdown. |
