I hope this is the right place for this, because I'm not suggesting a new game.

Generally I would like to add the "No Escape" restriction to FF7 (Obviously it cannot be paired with "Low Level")
Also "No Enemy Skill": The Materia Enemy skill is banned. (Generally because its very strong, pairs nicely with command materia only)

Also the first rule you set (The first rule will ALWAYS pertain the party as a whole. This means it will dictate character level and how many characters are allowed to participate.) is generally good, but once you try to use 5-6 restrictions it might be better to make this rule obsolete and make it possible to not have a restriction on your party.
Some people like having full access to the party and not having restricted Levels.(It makes certain challenges impossible)

Can't believe I forgot No Escape. I'll have to add that into the first rule batch so that you cannot generate it along with sutff like Low Level, Level 1 or No Exp. since it doesn't make sense for this. I agree with you on the chance of adding a skip on the first restriction, it's just confusing to implement. I guess I'll have to add an extra layer of checking before anything gets generated. The only problem I forsee with this is the lack of extra rules to add, On the off chance that someone should generate a "Skip Level" "Skip Materia" and "Skip Item" It rules out over half of the available restrictions. Before I can implement something like this I'd want to add at least 5 more rules or so. Otherwise you're going to get stuck with only a few varieties.

I'd also like to add some more pre-geneerate setting, such as giving the player more control over what is generated.

As for No enemy skill, I think it will be best if I just create two options for Command Materia Only, One that allows Enemy skills and one that does not.

Thanks to this we can add at least 2 new restrictions to the generator.

-Command Materia Only (No Enemy Skill)
-No Escape.

Thank you for the feedback. (Also I'm going to move this to the game suggestion section.)

No Escape could still be added to gameshark runs, makes it really interesting if you gain no exp but still have to fight everything
