new trait creation assistance

[Lionhawk]

im fiddling around with new traits and was wondering if someone could post how to determine which buildings are built at half production. i can figure out how to add a trait and tweak a few things the new trait can give but i dont know how to determine if a new trait can build a theater or barracks 50% faster....can anyone give some guidance on this?

thanks
