So many towns not listed?

[delems]

I keep looking in the "Locate cities on the map" tab, but so many towns are missing? I don't remember having missing cites before. When I put Z, there is only 1 or 2 towns that start with Z. I'm missing Aarschot and many many others? I something wrong with that?

That explains it. expected (but terrible) functionality.

Just changed memory setting back to normal and all the towns were there. So, yes, that seems to be the cause.

Now, hmm, is this right ? 400 towns, 20 characters per name per town is 8000 bytes of data. Hard to believe one can't put an 8k array of text in 2 Gb somewhere? Not calling it bad coding... but something seems wrong. Should be able to easily find 8k. I would get this fixed right away. Seems sloppy to me.

Now, why did I turn the low memory on in the first place? What was it that I heard that made me change that setting? (I have plenty of memory)
