I'm not sure if you are talking about a historical game though. If not, you have to wait until that year and make the change. It's all manual changes unless it is a historical game that is auto-expanding and so reading the files that tell it what to do when.
It's a historical park for a historical year that isn't already set up to be used. However, when I looked at that era_ballparks.txt file before, I think I recall a lot of numbers in there, but I have no idea what those should be to create a new record. I see the column headers, but where would I get the data? I'm assuming they are probably somehow part of the .prk file. I guess I could always try to remember when the time comes to import that park, but I truly don't trust myself to remember what I'm supposed to do the rest of today.
