## Meaning

controlpaneltypelookup: X4 attribute schema type: base types, constraints and value alternatives.

An XSD type constrains XML, rather than declaring a Lua return or the payload type of event.param. A valid schema value does not prove a successful game effect.

## Schema structure

`libraries/common.xsd`

| Property | Value |
| --- | --- |
| Construction | `union` |
| Union members | [`expression`](wiki:schema-expression-b8bc0e4f) |

Additional inline union branch:

| Property | Value |
| --- | --- |
| Construction | `restriction` |
| Base type | [`xs:string`](wiki:schema-xs-string-d5652e9b) |

| Constraint | Value |
| --- | --- |
| `enumeration` | `controlpaneltype.hack_all_turrets` |
| `enumeration` | `controlpaneltype.hack_buildmodules` |
| `enumeration` | `controlpaneltype.hack_discount` |
| `enumeration` | `controlpaneltype.hack_engineer` |
| `enumeration` | `controlpaneltype.hack_production` |
| `enumeration` | `controlpaneltype.hack_shieldgenerators` |
| `enumeration` | `controlpaneltype.hack_storage` |
| `enumeration` | `controlpaneltype.hack_watchdogs` |
| `enumeration` | `controlpaneltype.hack_hiringdiscount` |
| `enumeration` | `controlpaneltype.hack_moddingdiscount` |
| `enumeration` | `controlpaneltype.hack_repairdiscount` |
| `enumeration` | `controlpaneltype.hack_traderdiscount` |
| `enumeration` | `controlpaneltype.hack_radar` |
| `enumeration` | `controlpaneltype.access_scanner` |
| `enumeration` | `controlpaneltype.access_jukebox` |
| `enumeration` | `controlpaneltype.access_dockcamera` |
| `enumeration` | `controlpaneltype.access_externalcamera` |
| `enumeration` | `controlpaneltype.access_peoplelist` |

restriction narrows a base type; union accepts one of its branches; list describes whitespace-separated items. Enumeration values in one restriction are alternatives. Pattern syntax is XML Schema regex, not Lua patterns or JavaScript RegExp. Constraints inherited from the base type still apply.

## Example and result

Use the attribute pages below for contextual examples. A generic executable example is not inferred from a type name alone.
