Tool for generating Shattered World mods for Imperator: Rome
The generator is used as just another console application.
Open a terminal and run the ImperatorShatteredWorldGenerator executable, making sure that all the desired arguments are supplied.
The generator settings are supplied via CLI arguments

| --city-population-min --city-pops-min |
Minimum amount of pops for regular cities | Optional | 4 |
| --city-population-max --city-pops-max |
Maximum amount of pops for regular cities | Optional | 12 |

Note: I would advice against generating too many new countries. The game may (or may not) load fine, but it could crash at any point after the game has started (even many hours later). Note: I was not able to generate more than 1,900 countries without the game crashing at startup
The generator will load and randomise the pops, culture and religion of all the habitable cities defined in the vanilla game. It will then proceed to load the vanilla countries and remove all their regions except their capital. The religion and culture of the capital will be set to the country's culture and religion (which usually matched the vanilla ones for that city) New countries will be generated randomly, based on randomly chosen vacant cities.
Note: The game will throw a lot of event errors if some of the vanilla countries are missing. To be on the safe side, all of the vanilla countries will be kept regardless of generator settings. Fixing this would require rewriting many events, and a lot of debugging effort.
- Random trade goods
- Random country names (based on culture. probably based on Markov chains)
- Option to remove vanilla countries
