Maps Ideas

What if we made a random map generator for OpenMachines? I mean, we should still have the default maps, and while this would require more advanced A.I. for bots (AoE 2 comes to mind), it would make OpenMachines more open I think.
That would destroy any balance and take time from developing more important parts of the game.
Well, I'd say, HUGE random maps might be a good idea. But, on the other hand, it might be hard to balance the generator itself, unless those maps would be symmetric... and even then, they might be imbalanced.

Yeah it would be very hard to balance a generator. It seems like this would only be useful for some other sort of gamemode. While imbalance is fine for just a fun havoc match or some non-competitive gamemode, survival vs waves for example, I don't think it would be a good idea to work on imbalanced maps as I care more for the core game to work and play well. (maybe someone could make a mod if he/she really wanted to?) -
It was only an idea. More like something that, if done at all, SHOULD be done after implementing the core aspects of the game as @bilal has stated (although more advanced A.I. in my mind would be a perfect example of a core aspect that would be required to make the random maps possible in the first place - just a thought).

AI wouldn't be a problem anyway for a generated map assuming it works properly for ones made in an editor.
