Hello, I am trying to do something relatively simple. I would like it so that LSSD will additionally respond as backup in Rancho (LSPD can continue to show up too, I don't want them removed). I am trying to do it without modifying the base regions.xml and backup.xml files and use custom ones but it isn't working. This is how I am trying to set it up:

 

File at lspdfr\data\custom\region_davis_sheriff.xml

<Regions>
	<Region>
		<Name>DavisSheriff</Name>
		<Zones>
			<Zone>DAVIS</Zone>
			<Zone>RANCHO</Zone>
		</Zones>
	</Region>
</Regions>

 

File at lspdfr\data\custom\backup_davis_sheriff.xml

<BackupUnits>
	<LocalPatrol>
		<DavisSheriff>
			<Agency>lssd</Agency>
		</DavisSheriff>
	</LocalPatrol>
</BackupUnits>

 

I know my syntax is correct because if I place these directly into the default regions.xml and backup.xml it works and both LSPD and LSSD show up in Rancho. But this defeats the point of custom templates as I am trying to avoid modifying the defaults. Can anyone with understanding on the template system help?

Edit: Finally figured it out...I needed to rename region_davis_sheriff.xml to regions_davis_sheriff.xml. I didn't realize the missing s lol.
