Specification
This specification covers the format of all ordinance files within SimCity 4 Savegame files. The relevant Type IDs are as follows: 00D0723D, 02BF1DFA, 22F6E80C, 22F6E81B, 40D07236, 42BF1E18, 62BF1DAA, 62BF1DB9, 62F6E7CF, 815B4CEF, 82B9999B, A0D07129, A2BF1DDC, A2BF1DE5, A2BF1E43, C2BF1DC5, C2BF1E04, C2F6E81F, E0D0722E, E0D07233.
Dword - File size
Qword - Unknown, always changing. Perhaps time stamp?
Word - Version, always 4.
Byte - Initialized (Tracks if the ordinance class initialization method has been called).
Dword - Type ID of file/Ordinance ID.
Dword - Length of Ordinance Name.
String - Ordinance Name.
Dword - Length of Ordinance Description.
String - Ordinance Description.
Dword - Year available.
Dword - Prior to City Incorporation, this is Monthly Chance. After incorporation, it changes.
Qword - Enactment Income.
Qword - Retractment Income.
Qword - Monthly Constant Income/Expense.
Float32 - Monthly Income factor.
Dword - Advisor ID (unused, always 0)
Byte - Available to Enact (In other words, is it actually showing up in the Ordinance screen or not).
Byte - Ordinance On/Off (That is, whether the Ordinance has actually been enacted or not by the user).
Byte - Enabled (Can the ordinance show up in the menu or be turned on).
Byte/QWord - Dual purpose:
For Byte - City nonincorporated it's always 01.
For QWord - Current Monthly Income/Expense.
Once a city becomes incorporated it becomes a Qword for Monthly Income/Expense.
Byte - Ordinance Category; Income/Expense.
Ordinance Property Data:
Word - Exemplar Property Data Version (always 2).
Word - Generic Property Data Version (always 2).
Dword - Generic Property Count (always 0).
Dword - Group ID of Ordinance Exemplar.
Dword - Type ID of Ordinance Exemplar.
Dword - Instance ID of Ordinance Exemplar and/or Ordinance ID.
(Seems to also be the same as the Type ID of the ordinance file in the savegame).
