Question / Random World Types

[battists]

I tried searching on this, but no luck.

I personally wish there were a way to choose "Random" for world type. I like to start games where the entire setup is random. After all, when the first human beings came around, no one told them, "OK fellas, it's going to be an archipelago this time, alright?"

So, we can randomize some of the settings, but not world type.

I no nothing about the customization capabilities, but I'm guessing that's not something custom modders can do. Am I correct in that?

Anyhoo, thanks for listening!

this has already been done for you!

There are at least two map scripts to do this for you:

My SmartMap:

and the completely random map script which I can't seem to find the link for at the moment, maybe someone else will post it.

See, I just NEW there was a reason to come here, apart from Vel's strategy thread.

If there's anything SmartMap won't do for you, please let me know. I'm plugging away on version 3, and all feedback is welcome. So far I have been able to accomodate all requests.
