Workaround for Twinity Radio

Due to a change to the Shoutcast API our in-game radio is currently not working as expected.

Luckily there is a workaround to the problem. To add a music-stream to your place please follow these steps:

1. Go to www.shoutcast.com
2. Select your favorite internet radio station
3. Copy the link to the stream (right-click: copy url)

The link should look something like:
http://yp.shoutcast.com/sbin/tunein-station.pls?id=1377771

4. Go to Twinity
5. Open the radio dialog (Show Place Info -> Edit -> CHANGE)
6. Open the FAVORITES tab
7. Paste the link into “Custom URL:” field
8. Press Add
9. Select the new radio stream and press the play button

We are in contact with Shoutcast to get the existing radio dialog working as soon as possible.
