Ability to re-import cities.txt file?

albatross11 · 04-12-2010, 04:07 PM

Not a big issue, but was wondering why the cities.txt file cannot be re-imported (like the names.txt and injuries.txt files)? Is it due to the format of the file? I did a search, but couldn't find any recent info. I modify and re-import my name files (first and last) quite often. Thought it would be nice to be able to do the same with other .txt files.

Yeah, the cities.txt is utilized in the league creation and cannot be changed thereafter. Agreed, it would be great if a LOT of these files could be altered, but it just isn't set up that way. Maybe it's better off that way. Keeps us from mucking things up that cannot be repaired in history later.

Know what you mean, Endgame, about "mucking" things up...I'm good about doing that

. I was just curious as to why the cities.txt was different about being re-imported, because the other .txt files (which can be re-imported) are also used in league creation. Thanks for your reply.
