So, another idea: a script that was going along and adding names to provinces, could also add the terrain types after the name, perhaps in shorthand. Just a thought.

Not a bad idea. I have some partially done scripts for creating province names.

Since the addition of the terrain codes I havent gone back to use them the way I had planned to name provinces. It would be easy to add a code to the end of each name.

And the "Theme Parks" project (Wauthan renamed it from Semi-Random Map project) does need a shorthand for terrains to be developed. It would overlap nicely.
