Default Re: A More Modern > - Multiplayer "User vs AI" Campaign

Not really being following but from warsaw pact side might be a refreshing change.

On maps why not set to max size generate a few & tidy up then if have CD cut & paste into smaller maps. If so wished could be continous areas even doing with overlap of adjacent map if so desired.
Say 5 hex overlap so if maps were 50x50 second would cover from hex row 45 - 95 3rd from 90 - 140
You would get 3x4 =12 maps of that size out of a 160x200 map so need 3 covering diffrent areas with slightly diffrent terrain perhaps for 36 maps.
Take base map generated to produce first map then adjust a few settings for others & generate the next.
Urban field tree & hill height settings come to mind just tweak slightly & generate next map for something similar but say with rolling hills or more trees.
Also yes on right devs comment sometimes maps can be to flat but dont use asterix unless going to change that hex to something else so it stands out like dirt (doesnt work well as single hex) you want a few undulations use high grass so its obvious its not flat terrain.
