Default Re: FQM 2.10/1.23 Released

Just a suggestion for a new (or not so new) kind of system for your mod: a multi-system system, in the style of ultraquad mod (is that the name?), but having 4 mini-systems per system...

Since each system is a 13x13 grid you can have four 5x5 mini-systems inside it, leaving space among the systems and spaces in the system boundaries for the warppoints... and in a 5x5 minisystem you have 25 sector that, even excluding the center one for the star, leaves 24 sectors for planets, asteroids, storms and empty space... (i imagine mini-systems with around 5 planets and 1 asteroid/storm, leaving the other sectors empty).

I thought about creating this kind of system myself but i´m too lazy to create enough variations to make it worth.... but maybe you wish to make a try and do it? It can even have different mini-systems inside of each system, with asteroid-only minisistems, mini-nebula, and even multi-star mini-systems...

just some ideas...
