 +Not all vanilla units have a unit type. All the units mentioned here have an empty String (**""**) for their Unit Type and are created as (figuratively) child units but are still a unique unit with a detectable UID.

 +**Note:** The created crystals of the Greenar Mother (known as Xstals) are not Sub-Units of the Greenar Mother. They do not have a UID or at least, don't increase it. It is possible they internally share the UID of the Greenar Mother that created them.\\
 +Without a UID, they are undetectable with current API's, making the greenarrefinery special and currently impossible to recreate within a CPACK.

 +:!: Sub-Units can easily be detected by the [[4rpl:commands:getunits|GetUnits]] API unwantedly and using the API [[4rpl:commands:getunittype|GetUnitType]] to identify the detected UID's within the returned list will return an empty String upon identifying a Sub-Unit, which can be quite unhelpful (though it can still be used to identify if the UID is any Sub-Unit). The API [[4rpl:commands:getunitofficialname|GetUnitOfficialName]] is only way to identify a specific Sub-Unit using a unit UID.
