Review map generation settings

Post by Rakasch »

Situation:
You are about to start a new game.
You want to make some changes (compared to your last freeplay game) to adjust the settings of your new game to better fit your taste.

BUT:
You don't remember which settings you choosed the last time ... :(

It would be really nice, if there were a menu point like "map information" in the game settings, where you could look up the settings, you did choose for your current game.

hmm ok, i see you can use the map exchange string this way.
But it's still more kind of a workaround.
And quite inconvienient, if you just want to have a look on your current settings, while you're playing :)

I would like it if the map generation screen just remembered the last used settings.
