Badge properties

property	value range	comment
label	string with / as delimiter	For sake of compatibility and user experience, consider using labels already introduced by other NewGRFs. Badges with label without / are considered to be classes. Labels for other badges should match following syntax: "label_of_class_they_belong_to/label_for_the_badge"
name	string	Name of this badge or badge class.
flags	bitmask(BADGE_FLAG_XXX, ...);	COPY_TO_RELATED_ENTITY Badge can be copied to related entity (e.g. badge on a railtype can be copied to rail vehicles of that railtype.) NAME_LIST_STOP Stops adding more names to the visible name list. NAME_LIST_FIRST_ONLY Add this name to the visible name list only if this is the first name. USE_COMPANY_COLOUR Recolour badge depending on company that player currently controls. NAME_SKIP Allow the badge to be excluded from the badge name list.

Badge variables

name	value range	comment
intro_date	date(yyyy, mm, dd)	Introduction date of entity (or current date if entity type does not have an introduction date). See introduction_date in vehicle properties.
