Map generator model II

[yellowdaddy]

does Dale's map have any connection to Gary's map?

and what's with all those giant fried eggs floating in the sea?!

The point about Dale's map is it's really big. Each pixel maps to one square. I don't know how big a map can be in Clash in terms of playability and performance.

I, as you know, like "really big".

I don't know either how "too big" or "unplayable" is defined for this game... is there any way of testing out a few sizes?

I'd also like to ask if the map generator will allow for any kind of simulation of plate tectonics - and the chains of volcanoes, and earthquakes associated with them - when each map is generated?

thus:


...just soes that earthquakes and volcanoes aren't just random, and civs can avoid faultline zones if they want to. It might be (mildly) exciting to have a city fall into the sea, or a krakatoa event with global pollution, affecting the behaviour of other civs...?
