Option to randomize specific components i.e. charges and ordinaries

[latiif]

When designing a COA, one might need to expirement with a specific component (shape, color, positioning etc) while keeping the other components as is.

While we have the option to randomize (reroll) a specific COA design, I suggest adding the option to randomize a specific component: a charge or an ordinary.

Something like this maybe (the dice symbol next to the delete and clone options):

I'd love to work on the issue if you think it's a good idea to have. This might probably entail some refactoring to the codebase responsible of generating COA's.

Hello and thanks for the suggestion. I would say that it's pretty easy to implement. I also plan to add an ability to generate similar-looking coas in gallery. So see a lot of variants on the same screen and to be able to select from.

It's been really fun working on the codebase.

Since I'm working on randomizing components (charges and ordinaries), I thought I could take a look and maybe reuse the code in src/scripts/generator.js, which seems to export only two functions.

I have to ask if you have re-factoring src/scripts/generator.js on the roadmap, because it can use some love. There are a couple of functions defined within generate that I would love to reuse for this issue, but simply taking them out was not a option due to the deep inter-dependencies between them.

What do you suggest? Take the time to refactor generate() and the entire src/scripts/generator.js file? or just find away around it? I'm asking because I intend to keep my PR small and change as few files as possible.

Some refactoring is indeed required, so it would be nice to split in into independent functions.

The refactoring PR is merged now
