Default Re: 3rd party randomizer

So far Im thinking everything in RaceNeutral\Neutral001 thru Neutral010

Randomly select the portraits to be used, the flags, and rewriting all of the .txt files. Its kindof the way I do things. If Im going to look up what all those settings are and what their range of choices are, I might as well put them into a program to randomize them.

At first I would probably allow the full ranges, then tighten them as errors or illogical combinations drive me to. Eventually I will understand how everything inter-reacts well enough to manually design one but I often come up with some surprises along the way.
