Default Re: The Random Map Generator

Only one suggested improvement would be having a few provinces which provide one-way traveling. Even if this cannot be included within the random map generator hopefully the functionality will be introduced as a .map edit command.
This has been discussed in the Dom2 forum months or even years ago already - it is not possible with the current way maps work: Either 2 provinces are neighbours, or they are not. If they are neighbours, you can travel between them. Unpassable mountains are in fact non-existant neighbour connections.

If this would be changed, there would have to be 2 neighbour declaration in the map file - bringing it to 2x the size and, more importantly, invalidating all maps currently available... .
