are you kidding? the se4 generator was totally random. the quadrant types file contained all the paramaters for generation, and you could make custom shaped quadrants and such.

all of the variables were in plain sight, and you could lean on the "generate quadrant" button all day long, and see all sorts of new patterns being generated.

Are you sure its different from that? maybe theres some other explination, or a failure to wipe the old quadrant from memory or something.
