RE: Showtime - pd - 09.10.2008
Simple way to describe it, cause I know what it's like when you hear about includes the first time...
Imagine you write your INI code down in a file, mark all it's content and copy-and-paste it into your rulesmd.ini.
That's what includes do: copy a whole file's content and paste it in the file it's invoked in.
So if you put the [VehicleTypes] list and the vehicle sections into vehicles.ini and your rulesmd.ini includes that vehicles.ini file, the game will act as if [VehicleTypes] and the single sections were in rulesmd.ini.
Advantage: You can use this to keep stuff well ordered.
I know I'm going to.

Just a note: lists such as [VehicleTypes] should NOT reuse indices unless you understand what will happen.
RE: Showtime - pd - 09.10.2008
Are sections with equal names actually merged?
That would own even more!!
I don't use indices usually but I tend to set it like MTNK = MTNK - the game allows it and the numbers are gone.
