Even the annoying ruins should have an option to be set to zero, and when setting resources to 'broke' there shouldn't be plenty of resources, that's the opposite of 'broke'.
And the game should also remember the last settings that you used so that I can quickly regenerate a new map based on the same difficulty.

A variable for the quantity and diversity of wildlife would be interesting. As well as for tree cover and tree diversity. Maybe even something as specific as "create random island covered in wildflowers and flocked with flamingos." But a map editor might work better for that, with a "god mode" where you can add flora and fauna manually to the randomly-generated map (like with SimCity 4).

random map just give not random enough. i think the random engine not very good. each time generate random map just look identical with another random map

If you copy the Share Code and paste it into the RMG next time you want to generate a new map - your size, amount of resources and such are saved.

You would then only need to change the Seed itself - to generate a new layout using the same settings. I found this out myself after many frustrating tries to get a map that looked somewhat good to use. There should really just be an option in the Menu to generate a new map with same setting, while you are on the newly generated map. Instead of having to go through the steps again via the main menu.

You still need to adjust the starting money and those on the right side of the settings.

And yes, I do agree with having an option for the Ruins spawn. Do they contribute with something to the game, such as beaty or tourist attraction?

Thanks. I had not unlocked them at the time, I see now that you need to "reconstruct" them.
So they do actually contribute, and there are not too many of them on the map, so it is possible to work around them.

Would be nice with an option to demolish them though, ruin the ruins.

thats good physics some phi ratio based scaling algorithm necessary
