My ideas! ♥

Firstly - I LOVE THIS! Best generator so far! Thank you so much! ♥

My Suggestions (take em or leave em, of course, and forgive if I duplicated someone else's request!)

  • Customizable colors - While I like the preset ones chosen, I love being able to pick my own as well.
  • Different patterns/textures for different districts. Merchants would be easy to see vs Craftsmen!
  • Labels for different types of Residential areas, not just slums! Maybe there's upper class homes!  Barracks? Cottages? Farmhouses?
  • I love the Temples... could we have Shrines as well? Dotted across the city! These would just be the size of a small house on the map.
  • Public gardens/parks
  • Outside the city - Farms and farmland? Forests, swamps, etc?
  • The ability to name the city/town/etc!

I'm sure you have loads on your plate so please forgive me for an unreasonable amount of ideas. I tend to get excited about wonderful things!

Thanks again for all this hard work! ♥

Cheers!

  • Customizable colors - I thought about it and maybe I'll implement it, but I'm not planning to extend the current 4-colors palette (paper, light, medium, dark) so I doubt it will make much difference.
  • Different patterns/textures for different districts - If you are talking about patterns of alleys than they are different already. Merchants are quite similar to Craftsmen (a bit larger, a bit less chaotic), but Military and Administrative for example are easily distinguishable from the rest of the wards. If you are talking about actual bitmap textures then it's far beyond the scope of this app :).
  • Labels for different types of Residential areas - The fact is there weren't real residential areas in medieval cities. Craftsmen and merchants ( i.e. most of the population) lived and worked at the same place, for example at the back of a workshop or at the second floor above a shop.
  • Could we have Shrines as well? Dotted across the city! - It's a popular request, but I don't know how to mark them if they are as small as a regular houses... Also why temples/shrines and not tavern for example?
  • Public gardens/parks - The largest cities do have parks in spite the fact that it's totally unrealistic :)
  • Outside the city - There are some farms and there used to be forests, but I removed them. Maybe one day after finishing with cities I'll populate countryside with more meaningful stuff :)
