I am trying to make a scenario, but a slight error caused me to lose an important wonder. I destroyed the city of Memphis, which I had forgotten had the Great Pyramids in it, but which I had misplaced. Is there any way I can get my wonder back? It had been a while since I saved.

Make a scenario? Ask in the Scenario League forum!
It's not a massive problem - you can create a new city on exactly the same spot, and add whatever you want to it. Until the game begins, it matters not which wonders/city improvements have been created/destroyed in a city. While you're in the editor, the world is your oyster.

He said he was trying to make a scenario though. I have no idea why he would want to destroy a city as part of the creation of a scenario. Ask at the Scenario League for help!Comment

Circumstances don't change facts. The wonder is lost.Comment

Very well, I bow to your superior knowledge of the scenario engine in Civ 2. I'm proud to have been the polite one in this thread, and on that note, sirs, I shall take my leave.

You should drop by the Scenario League forum, you're bound to get much more help and advise there.
In any case, I'm pretty sure that the only way to revert lost wonders is through hex-editing.Indifference is BlissComment

Ecthy, try before you speak. I just tried this in Cheat Mode of Civ2.42 (Classic), which does not have all the extra scenario editing features of the later versions, but I can delete Wonders and add them back to cities without any problem. The one thing I could not do was delete the city itself. I can set the size to 0, or clear the food box and set a Settler building so it will disband next turn, but I cannot figure out how to just knock out and rebuild a city without allowing a game turn to elapse. If the issue is that the destruction of the city during a play turn caused the Wonder to go on the list as "destroyed", then I don't know if you can use Cheat Mode to get it back. I can test that out and get back to you, it will just take a bit longer.Comment

That's right. It's a simple procedure for anyone with a hex editor.Originally posted by N35t0r

Everyone has to calm down...
I can't believe you all had the nerve to get into an argument here!
In the end, I just started from where I had last saved. I found a really good city editor so the problem won't happen again. Still, it seems that it would be nice if one could 'resurrect' wonders in the out-of-the-box game. Thank you for all your input.Comment
