Hey guys...
After Sirian said that his "Tilted_Axis" map made old-school random maps only with the poles skewed 90 degrees, I got to fiddling with it and came up with this script.
If anyone would be so kind as to fart around with it and see how it works, I'd appreciate it.
To use it, unzip and copy the file "Random_Maps.py" into your Civ4 "Public Maps" folder... It will then show up in the list as "Random_Maps" when you run a "Custom Game"... It still uses all of the same input parameters as Sirian's, so set 'em all to random and go...
Let me know how it works out... I've generated about sixteen so far, and aside from some occasional "super icecaps" occasionally showing up, it seems to go pretty good. One thing I have noticed, though, is that if you get a string of the same map type, it helps to clear the game cache as has been mentioned in several other places.
Good luck!
