Different randomization buttons; map type, number of planets, minor factions, other modifiers.

The lobby scripting feature lets you randomize all of that, actually :) Exposing all that through the GUI would be way more than the already massively-complex Lobby UI could really handle.

The existing scripts are defined in:

\RuntimeData\Logic\LobbySetupScripts\

Let me know if you need info on how to randomize something with that.

I forgot about scripting since I haven't used them in forever.

Asked on the forums and there all the scripts for ship types. (You posted all of them)

So... Already solved, GG.

Awesome, glad to know that takes care of it. Feel free to post any other questions about the scripting to the forums. I'm very aware that it's not the easiest thing in the world to work with, but it's basically what I was able to do given the time available and the broad scope of stuff it needs to do :)
