We would like to add a choice for each setting that allows the value for that setting to be chosen randomly. This would allow for us to build a preset which could produce a random seed with certain restrictions. Maybe I want a seed that picks a random Item Split (Major/Minor, Full, Chozo), but I want to fix everything else. I would simply pick "Random" as the choice for Item Split, press Generate, and it would give me a seed.
Would probably be nice to have "Random" as an option for the Modes/Presets at the top too.
Ideally, we'll put "Random" as a choice at the bottom of the values for each setting after a separator.
Also, the word "Random" may not be the best choice. Maybe something like "Pick for me" instead. We don't want to overuse the word "Random" because then it will lose it's meaning.
UPDATE May 2024 - This has been partially implemented with the mystery preset. That one uses more of a hardcoded approach and works exclusively via the API (aka via bots). We should look at building custom Mystery settings and allow those seeds to be created from the /generate page.
