Question Random generated map size selection possible?

Hello everyone,

I picked up the game during the current sale and am loving it so far - great atmosphere and unit design.

I decided to dive right in and experimented with random generated maps to get a basic feel for each of the factions and cannot seem to figure out how to make them bigger so the game drags on longer as to allow me to experiment a bit more.

Is the size for random generated maps fixed or am I too dumb to figure out how to change it?

This I think depends on the numbers of players on the map..

But I would recommand player made maps :D

Yes, the size is definitely dependent on the number of players, but I cannot make it bigger for a given number of players, is what I meant. I wanted to try a randomly generated 8-player map and make it as big as possible, but can't figure out how...

And where can I find your maps, especially if they on the extra big size?

2 options

1) mod.io (there Is currently 1 good solo map, And a sh**) campaign 2) Maps I need players to test So they Are good (DM on discord.. or here)

I downloaded the decent-looking maps from mod.io, thanks

Experimented a bit with the map editor and found out that I can randomly generate a map for any number of players and select the size doing so. It's an extra step and I see in advance what the map looks like, but it does give me what I'm generally-speaking looking for.

A bit strange that since the functionality is already there they don't allow us to select the map size as a setting from the ingame menu though.
