If you're asking if I have any graphic design skills, then no, not at all. If you just want me to make a random six province map using SemiRandom, then sure, I could do that http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Re: Best way to submit?
 

I saw thet Jutetrea had the site lyfjaberg in his secluded temple. Does it work? It is intended to heal troops, but I don't thik it does.

Hmm, I should gather myself and finish all those old maps I started on.

Re: Best way to submit?
 

hmm, no idea. just saw there was a site with a heal bonus, wanted to build a temple around it... mid-difficulty stationary chalice type thing.

Did not know there was a bug associated with it.

Re: Best way to submit?
 

Excellent idea Endoperez! It is not supported at the moment, but I glanced at the code and it looks like a simple one line change to allow it. I will try to squeak something in before the weekend release.


@Stryke11
I was really hoping that in your professional life, you were a world renowned artist capable of producing a visually stunning masterpiece that we could use. But, any old stretch of pixels with six white dots would suffice. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...es/biggrin.gif



@KO
Hmmm... I don't recall actually seeing that site in game so far. Can anyone else confirm whether it works or not?

More KO maps? Yes please do finish them! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/laugh.gif
Were you working on scenario style maps, or good ol' fashioned general strategic maps? And, have you considered creating a couple (or a dozen) SemiRandom provinces for the collection? http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Re: Best way to submit?
 

The question about choosing two sites and would there be a chance to get 2 other random sites made me think..
Since we have something for random equip armor and such, can we create a list for random site in order to pad provinces out to the full 4 slots?

Re: Best way to submit?
 

I'm pretty sure that's how Ballbarian read my request. I think the "one line change" would be in allowing #knownfeature to be along the commands that can read queues, along with #additem and such.

Re: Best way to submit?
 

Sadly enough, I don't even know how to do that at this point...maybe if someone can point me to a mapmaking tutorial.

Since KO brought it up, more maps would be very nice. That is, designed maps. Random maps are great, but Aram, the Eye, Dawn of Dominions, those things are just super awesome. So if you're still reading this thread KO, I squarely put my vote towards more maps http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/laugh.gif

Re: Best way to submit?
 

Ok...Finally got some time this evening and made some quick changes. Whipped up three simple sample site lists (say that three times fast http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...ies/tongue.gif ), and created a test province.

The following GAN file...:
--Description:
--The very threads of existence must be torn asunder, then burned, then the
--ashes scattered, until all is nothing and no one exists to remember existence.
--Tharizdun is the god of Eternal Darkness, Destruction, Decay, Entropy,
--Malign Knowledge, and Insanity. He was imprisoned ages ago by a coalition
--of deities to prevent the destruction of existence itself. Tharizdun is known as
--the Dark God, and He of Eternal Darkness. Although imprisoned, Tharizdun
--still has a degree of his original multiverse-threatening power...

The catch is that the province editor is not going to directly support this. If you will be using the province editor, you will have to manually insert the @RANDOM feature/knownfeature lines, and then remember to not switch tabs before saving or else the changes will be lost. An easy workaround to that is to add the @RANDOM feature/knownfeature lines to the Garrison box on tab 3. This way the changes will remain intact regardless of how many tabs you flip back and forth through. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/smile.gif

It will probably be late tomorrow before I will be able to upload the updated versions of RanDom &amp; the Province Editor.
