Random map designs

Design 1: Side.

The Sun is to one (random) side of the map; all players' planets are in one ring around it, with unowned planets evenly intersperced with owned ones. The close spacing and scant resources make for violent fighting on this map, while short distances allow for fast reinforcements.

-The minimap view of a Side-style random map.

Four-player games have now been tested. However, they are a bit confusing when in progress, so I plan to have the engine trails of fighters be according to their team color.

-A four-player match in its early stages. Note the different layout of the map, as well as the yellow and blue planets/ships.

Sorry about the image size; I will replace it. (ImageShack's thumbnails don't work here.

There is content in this post. I have described one of my random map designs in detail, and have described the current state of one of my functions for increasing game replayability.
