dreiche2 said:exactly. Though, should you by coincidence *cough* use my flavor map scripts, then it will also work when you regenerate the map(well, at least I think it does, I haven't much time to test it).
I have used your scripts and they are very good - I don't often re-generate the map unless my starting position is terrible. But, even with not re-generating, copper and reagents are very hard to find as to, say, cows, pigs, corn, etc.
Most of the time I like to use the Fantasy Realm map as I prefer playing on land with a minimum of water tiles.
