Map Types

[Scooby_Doo]

Hello,

I was wondering if anyone had compiled a list of what all of the different map types are and what all of the different options in relation to each map do. Obviously some are self-explanatory but 'fractal' for instance is one I know nothing about.

I often want to try a different map but don't really want to spend an hour or so exploring it to find out that it's not really for me.

I suggest you use the world builder to check the map-types. Start a game, dont play it, just open the worldbuilder. Do that like 3 or 5 times for each map type, and you will have a pretty good idea what they look like.

And once you've done that, type up a description of them all for my convenience please (observations on how sea level affect them would be good)!
