Has anyone ever looked at the code related to the random map generator?

I have looked at how it relates to the worldbuilder controls in Alphax.

Could it be improved for things like standardization of spacing between factions, not having a faction end up on an island, etc.

The areas that I have looked at for World Generation have only dealt with how the alphax variables interact with various landfeature formation. I am uncertain as to how factions are placed on a random map. You can change the Contient size ratio in Alphax so that a faction would be less likely to start on a island.

Look at any photograph or work of art. If you could duplicate exactly the first tiny dot of color, and then the next and the next, you would end with a perfect copy of the whole, indistinguishable from the original in every way, including the so-called 'moral value' of the art itself. Nothing can transcend its smallest elements.
