Even though I am busy elsewhere, I wanted to mention that the next feature that JCivED does NOT have yet, and that's really missing (in my opinion) is "map-only" edition... For the moment, it's possible to generate EARTH maps by editing a Savegame, then exporting its map to EARTH format. Conversely, it's possible to edit a custom made MAP.PIC by starting a game with it, then saving the game, then editing the savegame in JCivED...
Bottom line is: all of this seems a burden when all one wants is to do map-editing. So my next focus will be on getting proper map-only edition support in JCivED, including compatibility with whatever I can find regarding cusomt map generation (I know Gowron's made a small program to convert text-based map into MAP.PIC, so I believe I will implement support for this text format as well...)
That said, my primary goal is still to figure out the "land value algorithm"
