Default Re: Fyron\'s Quadrant Mod (2.09 released! 1.22 released!)

I (with Master Belisarius' aid) have discovered a bug in SE4G that only crops up when using system/quadrant mods like mine.

Ok... this almost never happens with Good planet starts. It happens with Average planet starts. It never happens with single planet starts. I think that SE4 finds random spots to place the extra homeworlds. If the sector that the homeworld is placed in contains one of the Huge Gas Giants that are specifically called for in SystemTypes.txt that have multiple moons, then it ignores the race's info, and makes the homeworld a Huge Gas Giant of the atmosphere that it had randomly picked for that planet. This is most definitely a bug, and I shall report it to MM immediately.
