In SPORE, when the game picks cities for NPC (Non Playing Character) civilizations, it picks a random City Hall and chooses buildings that match it aesthetically. By using a tag "set:" you can assure that it will allways pick the correct buildings to match the randomly chosen City Hall.
Example:
This City Hall has the tag "set:galazan". If the game picks this hall, it will search for a House, a Factory and an Entertainment building with that tag, and will find these:
Update: further testing has shown that this system is not 100% reliable. I guess we'll have to wait for better ways to control our content and create our SPORE Empires...

That's VERY helpful. Thanks.
Is there a way to do this with vehicles too?
I wish there was an easier way to create whole empires with multiple buildings and vehicles that go together. I like making stuff that looks like the creatures that use it. Hopefully a way to visually establish what buildings and vehicles empires would use would be added to the game some day via a menu system or something.
Thanks for posting this, I had no idea how to do this before.
