1 - why don't you make the 'calculated waypoints' to be interpolated directly in game?

I am scripting in perl and bash (but beware, I'm not a script-junky, I use it for my own needs), and I hope to get fast into python. It seems to me that it is an easy to learn language (the basic needs) and as You mentioned above, it is used ingame.

But I don't know how the game is starting and processing the scripts during the operating time. It would be a pity, if a bad designed script would make CTDs or some other missfunctions, and so I think it is better to build the routes outside of the game. Perhaps, at later time a member with more know-how could transfer the scripting into the game.

its difficult to add randomness to the masterpoints, because I cannot detect if I hit land . But for the waypoints I could add a few hundred meters at both sides to simulate some meanderings. Or do You mean something different?
