Re: new map generator
been a while since i posted, been a little busy at home, so i did not get to make an update last weekend, but that is not to say i didnt get something done. my current focus is to finish the seed file and make sure that updating certain sections of code will minimally impact maps that get regenerated and then to implement sprites. these features should be finished by the end of next weekend. i am pushing to make a release available by the time dom3 is out, but please dont quote me on that. the sprites will be adjustable. for now this will mean simply replacing the ones that are there with your own, later i will put a load dialog in.
til next weekend

Re: new map generator
Those are beginning to look VERY good. Especially the wrap-around maps.

Re: new map generator
just fixed a bug that was really screwing up wrapping map borders, getting close to having that seed file done in the process.

Re: new map generator
Maybe you could create a global map style?
Basically it wraps normally on the sides, and at top the provinces can all reach each other, and at the bottom they all reach each other.
Even better is to work the math so that the top and bottom have few provinces, and the middle has many. Such as, the two arctics have 3 wide provinces, temperate zone has 20 across, and tropical zone has 50 across
