Editing Regions

really like the regions feature....so much so that I can't start a game because I have so many choices I can't decide where to play, LOL!

Anyhow, I'm starting to poke around in the world_default.xml file and had a couple questions about editing -- I want even MORE choices.

1. Can you add new regions beyond the default 142? If so, would you assign them IDs starting with #143, #144, etc?

2. How do you add municipalities? I live in Maine, and yeah, my hometown is in there, but I'm thinking I'd like to add a few neighboring towns that aren't. Maybe do a Maine town league sort of thing. that's one idea rattling around in my head.

Another is that I'd like an "Atlantica" region -- New England + the Maritimes.

Another idea is that I might want to have several state/provincial leagues with the winners having a playoff. Not even sure if that is possible, or how you go about doing it, but it seems like it should be.

These are just a few ideas, but understanding how editing the xml works would be a huge help.

Thanks!!!

Will
