Motti reads the name of the map file from as its first non-option
argument. If no map name is given, motti lists maps availabe in its
system-wide map directory. If a map name is given, motti searches for
it first from the current directory, then from
`$(prefix)/share/games/motti/'.
`-o FILE'
`--output=FILE'
Save the game map to file FILE. Useful for saving generated maps or
maps with a reduced number of players. This is not a save game option,
since this option takes effect only before the actual game start.
If the string `generate' is given as the map name, motti generates
a map instead of loading one. The map generation can be controlled with
the following options:
`-d FLOAT'
`--distance-min=FLOAT'
The minimun distance of capitals from each other. Default: 8.0.
`-g FLOAT'
`--granularity=FLOAT'
Plasma granularity. Larger values create a more scattered terrain.
Default: 0.3.
`-h ROWS'
`--heigth ROWS'
Map heigth. Default: 15.
`-m FLOAT'
`--plasma-min=FLOAT'
Minimum value of plasma template value range. Default: 0.0.
`-M FLOAT'
`--plasma-max=FLOAT'
Maximum value of plasma template value range. Default: 0.3.
`-r FLOAT'
`--randomness=FLOAT'
Amount of randomness added to each cell. Default: 0.2.
`-t FLOAT'
`--threshold=FLOAT'
Each cell is calculated a value for it, roughly the inverse of the
distance from all capitals summed minus the value of plasma cloud at
this location plus a random number between 0 and the amount of
randomness. Any cells having a greater value than this threshold are
made land. Default: 0.15.
