Bingo! A very high density map with a dozen solar systems per system map. Basically the scale would be one light year or more per square. For example, Sol and all of its planets would just be a single square on the system map. Any mobile unit would be an FTL unit. (Fighters might be tricky since I want them to be agile, but non-FTL. Still too new to the game to know if they will be a problem or not.)
The question/request about the .MAP file spec still stands. Given the map editor, I could eventually figure out the file spec. But, I'd rather be working on utilities than reverse engineering a file layout.

I think the best route for you would be email MM or Shrapnel and ask directly. They may or may not see it here.
