SE4 map making annoyance....
 

I know it may seem like a small gripe, but is anyone else driven totally mad trying to come up with random min/org/rad stats for planets? This has got to be the one thing about the Map Editor that really bugs me. I know many people just generate a map and edit it, but I tend to work from a pre-existing universe where I know where all the systems and planets are relative to one another, and changing a random map would be probably just be more work.

Anywayz, I find myself racking my brain trying to come up with resource % for every planet, hoping I didn't use a number already, and that they don't look too predictable. A button to randomly generate a planet's statistics (doesn't have to be limited to resources, the rest is much easier to change from random stats to what you wnat) would make the process of mapping FAR easier on the nerves and much faster to boot.

Everyone that has worked with the map editor has come across this annoyance.

I just roll a few dice that I keep by the computer.

Yes, the map editor is certainly lacking the features needed for it to be a map creator. It's barely functional as an editor.
