You would have to decrypt the .x file, extract entry by entry, change/add/modify to the data, then reencrypt it. The TH utilities have that ability (at least in pieces) because I can decrypt an .x file, change the value of things in it, and then reencrypt it. It's how I do things like fix for the colonizer bug; I find the problem when a .x file is uploaded, fix the file, and then save it for turn generation.

I'd be glad to get on a call or email thread if you'd like to discuss in detail, as well as see which TotalHost utilities might best get you there were you so inclined to dig deeper. Everyone probably isn't interested in all the gritty details Smile
