Hi,

It's not possible to say what this code fragment does because there is no context and you have given no information about it.
As pure code it's very straight forward but meaningless on it's own.

You mentioned it is to do with a game and about finding a place in France. So my best guess is that this is a patch file to add or change that feature in the game.

You should try and contact the game creators or a game players forum to find out what to do with it. Hope that helps :-)

It doesnt even look like valid code but some data.
