Since every person who wants to build in the city will be assigned their
own place to build and the city is a grid, one solution to naming all
files needed would be to introduce a kind of coordinate system wich
could be used to create a naming convention, for example all files for
the first plot north and east of origo could be prefixed: n1e1, and then
if everyone would name their main file in that way ( n1e1.inc ) it would
be a very simple task including everything in the main cityfile. 

Also there would be no problem with plots covering more than one block (
eg n1-3e1-2.inc ). Anything you wanted could then be appended to the
filename: n1-3e1-2_really_fancy_texturemap.png or whatever.

Well, it's a thought...
