city search

How do you add a city to city search for city of birth? Not talking about adding a city to the weather. That's different. I can't understand why Fort Worth, TX is not in city search. It says no matching city found. Fine. How can I add it? Thanks.

Check different spellings if you can't find a city, especially a major one.

I think we're currently spelling Fort Worth as 'Fort Worth' but in-game we're still using an older version of the db where it was set as 'Ft. Worth'.

Thank you, Lukas. That's what it was. Ft. Worth. But is it possible for me to add cities to this base?

Yes, of course. You would need to edit the world.xml file, then reimport that that into the game.

Be careful when editing the .xml though, a formatting mistake can throw the whole thing off. Make frequent backups

Oh the world.xml. OK. Thank you once again. I was looking in the wrong place.
