I've kept the 3 sizes of each star, but its all relative to type. For example, yellow stars can be 38, 40, or 42 units in diameter. Its only slightly less wide than the stock range, which had 32, 36, and 40.

Did you not see the red giant system? Is that not big enough? 4 hex radius! hehe

Neutron stars are on the drawing board.

Hmm... the black hole system does not seem to actually animate the bitmap effects it uses. It seems to just pick a frame to use, and stick with it. Using the smoke trail animations just made the puffiness worse: black hole puff. I also have no control over the distance between black hole "clouds." :-\
