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.

By creating a planetary network, mankind on Planet now has the ability to share information at light-speed. But by creating a single such network, each faction has brought themselves closer to discovery as well. At the speed of light, we will catch your information, tag it like an animal in the wild, and release it unharmed-if such should serve our purposes.
