how do i edit when a city grows?

[DrwHem]

I dont have time to look through the encyclopedia Britannica here since im about to head out but ive been searching for about an hour on how to mod the city growth caps. im playing a mod right now where apparently a large town has 10000 people in it and it is taking forever to grow. how do i go into the mod files and change the cap from 10000 to 5000? which txt is it in?

Go in the data folder of your mod and check out this file descr_settlement_mechanics.xml, scroll down to the bottom and edit these entries:

   <population_levels>
      <!-- city -->
      <level name="village" base="400" upgrade="800" min="400" max="1500"/>
      <level name="town" base="800" upgrade="2000" min="400" max="3500"/>
      <level name="large_town" base="2000" upgrade="6000" min="400" max="9000"/>
      <level name="city" base="6000" upgrade="12000" min="400" max="18000"/>
      <level name="large_city" base="12000" upgrade="24000" min="400" max="36000"/>
      <level name="huge_city" base="24000" min="400" max="72000"/>
      <!-- castle -->
      <level name="moot_and_bailey" base="400" upgrade="0" min="400" max="1500"/>
      <level name="wooden_castle" base="400" upgrade="0" min="400" max="3500"/>
      <level name="castle" base="1500" upgrade="4500" min="400" max="9000"/>
      <level name="fortress" base="4500" upgrade="9000" min="400" max="13500"/>
      <level name="citadel" base="9000" upgrade="18000" min="400" max="18000"/>
   </population_levels>
