Alternate, or even Randomly generated maps.

I'll be the first to say it: I am a slow player with games like this, It took me about eight hours to 100% the maps, and that isn't all achievements (I probably could do that in another like hour or two).

But the fact the maps are identical each time you play them is a little boring. it makes for a great 'puzzle' for the harder maps. But once you have the answer its not really any fun. And that sucks, I get that if the maps were randomly generated there would be a chance they'd be un-completable for the later/more complex map options, but for the basic one? I'd love to be able to just play random versions.

It sucks that now that I've done all the maps to 100% that there's nothing left to do beyond achievement hunt.
Even if it was possible to give players a map editor then it'd be a good way to increase options.

Maps are randomly generated though?

I opened the same map twice and took a screenshot:

I've been playing the second tundra map several times over for the past few hours and it always generated the exact same map for me. Maybe some maps are Random gen some are not?

Still, More maps would be nice.

The second polar map is not always the exact same. It always has the same general look (covered in snow, body of polluted water on one side, heights on the other sides), but if you start melting the snow, you'll see the river and rock placements are different. Even the spots where you can place electricity production buildings in the water are slightly different.
