Sounds good, DireAussie!

Sounds useful. I particularly like that "99" thing. I could use that for my towers maps.

Another potential use is for map makers who want to set specific starting locations - they can enter 99 for the minneighbours setting and the whole map will become 'nostart', then they can edit the map in the dom 3 editor and choose the starting provinces they desire.

Setting all provinces to 'nostart' is not necessary. Just use #start <provNbr> and the given province becomes a valid start location.

I haven't had a chance to check this out yet, but I look forward to taking it for a spin tonight. Anxious to see how the results compare to my own hacked 'n' slap algorithm.
