It wasn't? Well, when I started the game and noticed a system next to my home system, which had multiple asteroids anyway, that had what 27 asteroids in it, the first thing I thought of was stellar manip. Once I got it, I handed control over to the minister and got 4 new worlds every turn. Incredibly resource rich beautiful worlds. I can see on this type of quadrant, claiming a lot of territory is not necessary to support even a large empire. With the many existing planets in each system, and the stellar ability to create more, even a small area can produce tons of all resources including intel and research.

Another teaser:

Added Quadruple Star Systems and Star Clusters. Added ruins that do not yield any techs. Revamped the Newly Formed star system.

Ancient quadrants will have a higher chance for ruins.

Btw, if someone wants a 1.49 Version of my mod for whatever reason, I could whip one up in a jiffy.

Ok, I have a word of warning.

I just created Adamant 005, for which I used my mod. It is to be played with the TDM mod. When I created the game with just the FyronsQuadrantMod folder, SE4 choked on it, saying that the data files did not match those used when the game was created. So, I copied QuadrantTypes.txt, StellarAbilityTypes.txt, and SystemTypes.txt into the TDM\Data folder and created the game. I restored the originals of those 3 files, and the game now loads just fine.
