Modifying Random Map Plugin

At the moment there are only two styles in the Random Map Plugin: Russia and Russia Snow. Is there any way to include another one?

Any chances to modifying code? ...to building maps with, e.g. more houses and less "square roads and fields" in farmland mode?

The random map building is all scripted, but I can't recall whether we set it up to allow for custom campaign map building. I will need to look at the code to see for sure, but I am out of the office for a while. I will set myself a note to look when I get back!

I do think you can add new styles by just setting up your tiles.txt file correctly. I believe this is documented on the ba2 wiki.

Cheers

I was also wondering if it is possible to add more random map types. It would be great to have a more mixed type of random map (ie. a mix of urban and farm or farm and wilderness etc...)

Is that possible? If so, how do we go about making that happen?

It would be great for the league to have options this way...please let us know, I can't seem to find much info on this subject.
