Summary0026559: Pre-game Setup Map Type and Map Customization Typos and Text Issues
Description--Map Types and Map Options
---All of them - Some ask a question for describing how the customization works, whilst others make a statement. "How connected is this map?" compared to "Linking Mechanism for Simple; controls how connected the planets are." It's ideal to keep these universal, either all presented as a question, or all presented as a statement.
---Realistic and Simple - Linking Algorithm - Missing "." at the end of the sentence. Planet Layout - Missing "." at the end of the sentence.
---Bubbles - Planets Per Bubble, Ten - Missing "." at the end of "This is the default." Random Extra Connections, Twenty - Says "Ten extra connections at random," instead of "Twenty extra connections at random,"
---Chaotic - "not planar" --> "non-planar"
---Classic - Classic Connectivity - Overlapping (Default) - Missing "." at the end of the sentence. Medium - "Allows fewer connections, no no overlap." --> "Allows fewer connections, but no overlap."
---Clusters - Type of Clusters to create (Customization name should be "Create" rather than "create") - Missing "." at the end of the sentence. Either change all of them to "Uses," or change Butterfly to "Use," Random Extra Connections, Twenty - "Says Ten extra connections at random," instead of "Twenty extra connections at random,"
---Clusters Microcosm - Cluster Radius - Missing "." at the end of the sentence. Random Extra Connections - Same as above issues, "Twenty" says "Ten."
---Concentric - Random Extra Connections - "Twenty" says "Ten"
---Crazy Branching - Planet Spacing Falloff, More Inverted - "a" is not necessary here, remove it.
---Cubular - "...but can multiple planets thick." --> "...but can be multiple planets thick." All customization dropdowns - Missing punctuation. Dali Style - Misleading. The description says "Whether the planets should be in straight lines" where "False" = "straight line" Consider changing description to explain that Dali Style means that the planets are NOT in a straight line.
---Dissonance - "Some areas of the galaxy are rich in planets, other areas have no planets." --> "Some areas of the galaxy are rich in planets, while other areas have no planets." Dissonance Connectivity - Overlapping (Default) - Missing "." at the end of the sentence. Medium - "Allows fewer connections, no no overlap." --> "Allows fewer connections, but no overlap."
---Encapsulated - Circle Size - Missing "." at the end of the sentence.
---Grid - Grid Type - Missing "." at the end of the sentence. Random Extra Connections - "Twenty" says "Ten"
---Honeycomb - Dissonance, Very Low - "maybe" should be two words here. Normal - "...though some interesting gaps." --> "though there are some interesting gaps." Random Extra Connections - "Twenty" says "Ten"
---Maze - Maze Type - Missing "." at the end of the sentence. Drop down options don't fit the drop down box (word wrapping issue) for the default choice "Maze D )Angles, Extra Links) (Default)" Random Extra Connections - "Twenty" says "Ten"
---Octopus - Number of Arms - Missing "." at the end of the sentence.
---Squares - Intra-Cluster Link Style - Missing "." at the end of the sentence. Cluster Size - "How large should the small clusters be?" Should probably not say "small" as the category description.
---X - Random Extra Connections - "Twenty" says "Ten" Go For Perfect Symmetry (For could be lowercase, but technically either is correct) - Final "ask" in the description should be "asked." Yes(Default) - "..., and if anything" --> "..., and, if anything," Move period to end after "for" and just make the parenthesis a new sentence, starting with "Be."

Once I get out of the pre-game stuff, I'll probably just make an xml file and use auto formatting to make it slightly easier to read.

Oh, also I guess let's put this with this one: Planet Naming Style - Roman Empire - Missing "." at the end of the sentence.

@Chris_McElligottPark What can be done here? Is it possible to make the list wider so it can accommodate the full text without going to a second line?

I don't think this is bad to leave as it is, because I think clarity should come before consistency.
I would like to hear from more people what they think about it.

@Daniexpert:

-removed "Maze" from the start of the maze types, so that they all fit in the dropdown without wrapping.
