[Map Creation] via Config

[noliVe]

As you know , creating a map could be done with configfiles.

today i want you help figure out how to do it correctly and import it to our website to create more difficult savegames.
since our service is free we need you guys help out too

some pictures and code could help us fasten the changes!

The - SEED - Part would be the most interesting one.

you know a way yet?
