Can DOM3 random map generator generate an infinite map like Orania or inland (maps with no corners)?

I personally prefer that kind of maps where no position is better (Beginning in a corner in a common map means you are better protected than in the middle).

Well, the counter-argument to that is that you may be better protected in terms of number of threats, but your options for expansion are similarly limited, putting you in a dangerous position if your outward neighbor expands more quickly than you and then starts pushing into your corner.

Those are wrapped maps, and Im afraid not.

But it can generate maps very easily. I tried generating batches of maps to come up with some that looked like they could be wrappable. Maybe later I will offer those for download so that someone more motivated than I am can do the modifying to make them wrap.

They look great. I'm gonna use them for sure. And I'll use them in MP if I can.
You are the man.
