Greetings fellow mappers:
Ok so i'm making (finishing) a new map, and im at the resources filling stuff. While experimenting i realized that in order to have a resource being "traded" in-game it only needs to be correctly placed in descr_strat.txt; even if the owning region doesn't have it listed in descr_region.txt.
So, i even tried with "none" as the resource for my test region and still descr_strat.txt overlaped and showed it in game and in the trading interface. My question now is: What is the actual purpose of the resources list in descr_region.txt? I know it's usefulness when using hidden resources; but i mean whats the use of listing "normal resources" in that file if as far as i know it won't make a change in the actual game. Unless off course i haven't tested enough and there is an issue that i'm not aware of.
