-Line 1. one number digit, usually 2. This does not need to be changed on normal conditions, however in my tests I've seen two different sort of TDF files which either need 2 or 3 characters stripper from the end of the line. So if you are running the cfg with number 2 and your objectives names end short like "Americ" for "America" then you should use number 3 in the first line of village.cfg +Line 1. one number digit, usually 2.

-Line 5. Control team number. Difference between owner and control is that owner is the original holder of objective and control is the team that currently holds (has captured possibly) the objective. In normal conditions line 4 and 5 should be the same. I personally use number 2, which is ROK. +Line 5. Control team number.

-Line 6. yes/no to add NoName objectives. If you type "yes" here, then objectives that has no name will be added and called "NoName". If you use "no" then no objectives without names are skipped. In modern countries all even smallest villages have names usually, but lets say for example Afghanistan is one country which has huge amount of city or village entries in the e00 data where the TDF is created that does not have name included. +Line 6. yes/no to add NoName objectives.
