Using Backup.xml

This guide explains the purpose of the Backup.xml file, and how to make changes to it.

The Backup.XML file is used to assign, for each 'backup type', a particular Agency to Regions and/or Zones.   The old structure from LSPDFR 0.3 is still used in 0.4, with the following backup types available:

• LocalPatrol
• StatePatrol
• LocalSWAT
• NooseSWAT
• LocalAir
• NooseAir
• Ambulance

For a better understanding of how this system works, consider the following:

<LocalPatrol>
  <LosSantosCity>
    <Agency>lspd</Agency>
  </LosSantosCity>
  <LosSantosCounty>
    <Agency>lssd</Agency>
  </LosSantosCounty>
  <BlaineCounty>
    <Agency>lssd</Agency>
  </BlaineCounty>
  <NorthYankton>
    <Agency>nysp</Agency>
  </NorthYankton>
</LocalPatrol>

In this example, a number of Regions are defined for the Local Patrol type, with an Agency defined for each Region.
