Default Re: RanDom v2 - Map gen & Semirandomizer... the se

Example description:
"This is a SemiRandomized map. It has 125 provinces: 116 land, 9 sea, 14 land starts, 1 sea starts, 1 open land starts, 0 open sea starts, 14 custom AI gods."

The open land/sea starts tell you how many slots there are for human players and the "14 custom AI gods" lets you know that there will be 14 slots devoted to AI nations. Remember that you do not have to set each individual nation. All you have to set are the human nations and then just hit <n> (the shortcut for <add new player>) until it greys out. In the map example above, you would end up with 14 random nation spots showing default settings.

It would be a nice feature to have the description remind you which nations were reserved for human, but in its current state, SemiRandom only sees nation numbers and not the names.

Right now I am neck deep in a province/Gan editor. Made a huge amount of progress so far this weekend, but I have been seduced by Edi's database and the pace is slowing some.
