game creation on the fly

[Gandalf Parker]

Part of a previous conversation....

A web form which allows the selection of game settings and starts the game. But carried out to all of the various choices even into rewrite of the .tga .map and mod files


Besides the normal game settings such as indep levels and setting renaming on and a certain mod included in the game creation..
Would you like a random map generated for this game? Tiny? Small? Medium? Large? Huge? Epic?
Would you like strategic choke-points?
Would you like each province to be uniquely named?
Would you like all units in the game to each have one random change?
Would you like additional castles scattered on the map?
Would you like powerful independent Groups scattered on the map?
Would you like certain nations to be computer player?
Would you like them to have a special pretender?
Would you them to have extra castles?
Would you like it to lose all light infantry?
Would you like the AI to have allies?
Would you like certain nations excluded from the choice list?

Would you like to have an extra castle to start?
Would you like additional troops to start?
Particular special sites added to you?
Special commander? Certain Magical equip? A particular starting spell added already researched?

OK Im probably getting carried away with all of the things we know can be added by such a form. Especially since its getting into the settings for the "Im getting bored" crowd which is a very VERY minor group with Dom2.

Heehee. Someone has to make it. I dont have the attention span for such things. I know that each one individually can be done but putting it all together into a web page is too long a project for my old mind. [img]/threads/images/Graemlins/icon17.gif[/img]

There seems to be a lot of programmers playing this game. Get to it!

Though, that is very easy for me to say since the only thing I can contribute is emotional support
