Up until I messed around with my scenery.cfg lately my numbering of Area and Layer was identical:

 

Example

[Area.742]
Title=Ireland - VFR Small Airports Part 2
Local=Addon Scenery\Ireland - VFR Small Airports Part 2\Ireland - VFR Small Airports Part 2
Layer=742
Active=TRUE
Required=FALSE

[Area.743]
Title=Ireland - VFR Small Airports Part 3
Local=Addon Scenery\Ireland - VFR Small Airports Part 3\Ireland - VFR Small Airports Part 3
Layer=743
Active=TRUE
Required=FALSE

[Area.744]
Title=Ireland - VFR Small Airports Part 4
Local=Addon Scenery\Ireland - VFR Small Airports Part 4
Layer=744
Active=TRUE
Required=FALSE
 

 

Having the Area and Layer numbers matching has some advantages which I prefer.

 

Now after something went out of whack I have things like this:

[Area.890]
Title=OZx_NA
Local=OZx\OZx_NA
Layer=504
Active=TRUE
Required=FALSE

[Area.891]
Title=OZx_LIB
Local=OZx\OZx_LIB
Layer=505
Active=TRUE
Required=FALSE

[Area.892]
Title=OZx_AUS
Local=OZx\OZx_AUS
Layer=506
Active=TRUE
Required=FALSE

 

Does anyone know of a tool that will renumber the Area and Layer to the same number and reorganize them automatically to be in the correct Area order?

 

For exampe, above, renumbering Area 892 to Layer 506 and then placing it in order between Area 505 and Area 507.

 

Doing the job manually or using Scenery config editor is painful, unless there is something I am not aware of.
