Hi all,

I have big gripes with the map editor so far. Basically I would like to generate a galaxy like the ones the game does, and then modify the local neighbourhood of my homeworld.
I can't do this because:
1) "randomize all" in the map editor does not accept parameters like star density, number of planets, etc.
2) "randomize all" does not generate unhinibitable planets - even those marked as "unhinibitable" show up habitable in play. Those of class "0" are indeed uninhibitable, but they all look like Mercury. I would like some gas giants, too...
3) the map editor does not show the actual star colors that will appear in the game
4) the map editor does not allow to choose the planet geography, set planetary colonization events (moral decisions) or edit planet tiles with specials.

One way to patch 1) and 2) would possibly be to allow the map editor to load maps from saved games, discarding the extra game info. But I really want a solution for problem 4) - am I alone in this wish?
