Orbital Colonies

[Puke]

the problem with having asteroid colonies as a standard size, is that you might create a regular planet out of them, instead of an asteroid colony. maybe if only SOME asteroids could be colonizeable, and these were a special size.. but you would still have planets of that size scattered about. rats. unless random planet generation is disabled, and all planets are of a fixed size, i dont think this is going to work.

edit: but if the component can create only an 'asteroid' sized colony, it would not matter what size the asteroid field was, right? Feh, you would still have random wierd planet sizes floating about.
