Additional Search Parameters
« on: August 28, 2008, 07:23:23 pm »

 - Sand
 - River type
 - Rock type(s) (Some rocks have more gems than others)
 - Civilizations
 - Tree density
 - Carp
Another nice feature would be the ability to prioritize your searches; like 'other features' being 'yes' and 'low' while 'magma' is 'yes' and 'high' will give you, at the end, if it can't find both, offer you a spot with magma.
Also possibly offers of similarily-sized reigons that have the items you want- For example, instead of a 4 x 5 reigon that has most of the things I want, it would also search for a 5 x 4 reigons as well.

Perhaps a 'Any Yes' type of answer for the evil and savagery. Or.. if you set savage on low, will it count an area with high savagery? What im pointing at is an answer for any amount of savagery, as long as it is savage.

Or perhaps a Minimum and Maximum. min:low and max:high would work for me.

But I agree about the sand and tree density; im not picky enough for civs, rock/river type,s and carp yet.

I'd like a 'find any magma' type selection cause most of the time I dont really care if its a pipe or not.

That would be "N/A" as savagery is a gradient from 0 to 100 and civs (durring woldgen) settle in ~60 and less.
