Modding ? re Settings.txt

Does anyone know what these lines in Settings.txt are for:

Maximum Planet Percent := 250
Minimum Planet Percent := 0
Maximum Planet Resource := 999000000
Minimum Planet Resource Value :=0

These are the absolute maximum and minumum value that a planet can have at any point during the game. Certain events, and facilities will modify planet value up or down. But they cannot do so beyond these end points.

They appear to be the same as:

Planet Value Low Percent := 0
Planet Value High Percent := 150
Planet Value Low Resources := 0
Planet Value High Resources := 500000

These are the high and low ends of the range that the game will assign to planets when it randomly creates a map.

In the stock game at game starup a planet cannot be more than 150%, but you could improve it beyond that. But not beyond the 250% value.
