map gen codes help

[carp]

Thanks, Andy, Don. I had found the map gen help but didn't understand the part about how one number might overrule another. This makes it much clearer why I'm getting the results I get.

I love making maps as I was a property-plat map-maker/cartographer once right after discharge and a surveyor party chief before I joined the service. I think this version and the old v3 version map generator is one of the best features of the game. The generator makes a good base map and I do save them to work them up for tons more detail. I was just looking for a few shortcuts. ;-)

I haven't mastered the urban fill feature yet to get realistic outcomes, nor the best road situations. The one thing for your programmers to be proud of is this most recent version have by far the best water features yet--water flows downhill and through valleys.

Thanks for the quick response. I have several maps I can post but I've never got my zip stuff to work.
