/**
* Makes a line of player locations. Sometimes you will want players to be placed in a line.
* Anatolia places each team on a line, while Vinlandsaga places all players in a line.
* Using a line placement is not easy because there may not be enough room for player areas or resources.
* X and Z determine the starting and ending locations of the line.
* DistVariation determines how far from the line player areas can vary, and spacingVariation determines how much space there is among points along the line where players are placed.
