Somebody were to create a program that will create a random map that will make sence.

I'd do it myself but I don't know any scm/scx code, or how to create a map, also I'm not that good at programming, I only know Visual Basic, IDK any Visual C++.

Wait, what would be the point of creating a random map? You mean a random melee map? I believe there's an old program that already creates random melee maps.

For RPGs, I personnaly can never design an RPG map terrain, I suk at it.

An RPG should have some sort of story... And the terrain should fit the story...

Yeah I know... the creator should be able to change the map after the randomness to fit the scenario...

Well, creating some random terrain shouldn't be too hard, and will be better than any computer-generated terrain in 99% of all cases. No matter how bad your terrain skills are. This is not worth the effort.

zOMG! Make a 256x256 map of all high dirt, take lowdirt isom 2x2 and draw a squiggly line that covers roughly half the map. Then add units TADA! your own little rpg that suits the public community.

This actually is the way the publicly played RPGs are made.
With some weird strings added, of course. Probably created by some random-string-generator.
