Techniques are tested in ascending index order. The first technique with a predicate that succeed is used for the effect. If you want your technique be the first tested, you have to use the lowest number possible. But beware, there is an inheritance scheme (with the keyword <inherits-from>) where, for example, the urban effect inherits from the terrain-default effect. If terrain-default use 10 and 11 for technique index, urban has to use 9 at most. And someone can create an effect that inherits from the urban effect. It would have to use an index lower than the one used by the urban effect. If you use 0, you leave no room for inheritance.
