[QUOTE="towngen, post: 44356, member: 1528"] As for mastermind's question on would it include huge cities... Yes. The slider for town size on a metropolis currently pegs out at 200k. To me that's pretty dang huge! I know there is a 1 million city in FRCS, but I'm not worrying about such absurdities just yet ... Information overload is just as bad as information underload. It needs to be playable without much effort from the DM. That's my biggest concern. Is that big enough? I can't even imagine what the output would be if you let it be fully verbose output even at 200k. Much bigger and your computer would probably just run out of memory and crash. I just don't know yet. If I can make it scale up bigger, then I'll make the slider peg out even higher. But I'm not making any promises. For drnuncheon's comment about mac's: Don't mac's have an "emulate windows" program? Kinda like there is a windows program to emulate Linux and vis-versa. If they do then you could try running it in an emulation window. That's probably the best I could suggest. Perhaps a playful sarcastic comment about joining the rest of the computer world might be in order, but I'm too tired right now to try to be witty. :) [/QUOTE]
