プレイヤーが新聞を開くとき、ゲームの世界ではあまり何も起きていない可能性が高いです。プレイヤーに空っぽの新聞を与える代わりに、地元の新聞に載っているような些細なチラシ記事で新聞を埋め尽くします。

これらのチラシ記事は、このエディターのリストからランダムに選択されます。歴史的な出来事やプレイヤー/aiの行動に関する記事は、それぞれターンイベントやゲームファイルで生成されます。

At the start of the game, the NewspaperArticles.xml file is read and stored in the game. Upon generation of a newspaper.html file, if there are not enough articles to fill the paper, the game will randomly select an article within the year range from this list. That article is then displayed in game.

The articles themselves are html. As such you can use html styling when creating the articles.

The following picture is of the newspaper editor. Below it we will break down the parts of this editor.

1. This creates a new newspaper list by clearing out the existing data in the editor
2. This opens an existing newspaper list.
3. This saves the newspaper list to an xml file.
4. Returns you to the previous editor or the main menu.
5. This is a list of the newspaper articles currently in the editor. Selecting an entry from this list will fill the information below.
6. This is the body of the newspaper article. The article is in html4, as such html tags will work. Any images should be include in your turnevents newspaper images mod files.
7. Checking this box will mean that the body of the newspaper article text is localized in the localization files. As such, the body of the newspaper article should be the ID number of the localization text.
8. Start year is the first year in which this newspaper article can appear in the newspaper. End year is the last year that the article can appear.
