Can someone explain to me whether or not it would be easy (at least, for a non-programmer like myself,) to add or remove map scripts from the rotation of the Shuffle.py script?
Here is why: I don't use Shuffle at all because some of the map scripts I like to use (like "Terra" and LDiCesare's Tectonics (http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=149278)) are not included in the 'rotation' for the Shuffle script. I also don't like to play Pangaea maps, and so would like to remove that script from the rotation. Similarly, I've heard good things about the "Big and Small" script in BtS, and might want to add that script to the rotation whenever I get my hands on a copy of BtS.
Can anyone help me with this?
Thanks in advance.

Bump. Can anyone offer any suggestions (or make it clear that what I'm asking for is not possible, at least)?

The Shuffle script does not have any rotation, it allways use the standard Fractal generator, and only variies the size of the landmasses by changing the according parameter... I like you assumed the Shuffle script had a rotation and was quite disapointed to see, that it does not, so there is no way to add something to the rotation...
I have buit a script, that actually is choosing from a list of different scripts. You can take a look at "Random Script Chooser" here. With my script you could remove Pangaea from the list, however it does not include Tectonics or any other custom script, and you would have at least to know the basics of python, to add them.

So there isn't any simple template you could give us? Like a chunk of python where the player puts in the map name where ever you have MAPNAME?

Unfortunately not that simple template - at least nothing i can think of...
Adding one more option to my script is rather simple - i will add Medium_and_small and some comment, then you can see the before/after and will be abel to add more...
However - in any case you have to go over the script you wish to import and remove/replace all custom options - like WorldWrap Direction or what ever...
