    Why not this info? MAPGEN size!

      I was thinking of something simple to implement, but that could greatly help players.

      Why isn't the map size in the map description when building the NEROXIS MAPGEN?

      Something about the size could appear in the lobby.

      In the FAFOREVER preview.

      It's extremely frustrating to enter a map and discover that the insane HOST put a 20x20 map...

      Or sometimes, put 16 players on a 10x10 map.

      Since this is BASIC information, why not implement it???

      And my last criticism, BALANCE the AEONS better, their T3 units are TRASH compared to all the others!

        When you hover over the map name (or in this very case, the map gen code) at the top right in the lobby, it shows you the map size. To be fair, it's either 10x10 or the very next step 20x20 being on display, but you could still judge how big the map is based upon the size of the black border, as the preview window also either is 10x10 or 20x20 (with a border if the actual map is smaller than full 20x20).

          That's the problem...

          You shouldn't have to guess the map size.

          It's simple information to add to the corner of the preview, both in the lobby and in the game list.
