Default Re: MapGen alpha release!

@manuk

the pcount command is used to specify exactly the number of provinces to generate, so what you typed would create 175 land provinces and 25 water provinces. if you are looking to decrease the total amount of water on the map, try lowering the sea level, use:
tlevel: sea num
right now, sea level is at 38 by default, try lowering the number. or you could use psize to define the relative size of land and water provinces and it will pack as many on as will fit

but the dimensions are messed up because of that comma between the 2000's. the arguments are not separated by commas, just spaces. the syntax is like this:
command: arg1 arg2 arg3 ...;

or in the event that no arguments are required, e.g. verbose:
command;

if this doesnt get you where you need to go, lemme know

@ drP

i'm pretty sure i know where the problem is, i just haven't had time to straighten it out yet. also i am adding in a feature that will allow map regeneration, so if you get a nicely shaped map, but want to change some other settings, you can reuse the random number generator seeds.
