FQM Poll: Quadrant Organization

[Slynky]

OK, I am one of the "I'll explain" people (not that I'm a good choice for that but)...

When I consider a map to play on, the first decision I make is what kind of map I want (for example, "cluster" type differs a lot from "spiral" type in the regular game. Then I decide how big I want it (depending on players or some other factor). Then, I would move to how rich to make each system in planets. Final would be warp point density.

So, to try and explain it, I would prefer something like this:

Spiral
*Small
--Planets Sparse--
---Warp Light
---Warp Standard
---Warp Heavy
--Planets Standard--
---Warp Light
---Warp Standard
---Warp Heavy
--Planets Dense--
---Warp Light
---Warp Standard
---Warp Heavy
*Medium
--Planets Sparse--
---Warp Light
---Warp Standard
---Warp Heavy
--Planets Standard--
---Warp Light
---Warp Standard
---Warp Heavy
--Planets Dense--
---Warp Light
---Warp Standard
---Warp Heavy
*Large
--Planets Sparse--
---Warp Light
---Warp Standard
---Warp Heavy
--Planets Standard--
---Warp Light
---Warp Standard
---Warp Heavy
--Planets Dense--
---Warp Light
---Warp Standard
---Warp Heavy

Cluster
(etc.)

I like Slynky's suggestion.

[Fyron]

The small, medium, large part of that is not dependant on quadrant type, so would not be in the list. But, that does sound like a good suggestion. I shall look into it.

[Fyron]

It is looking kinda funny...

WPL Sparse Mid-Life
Sparse Mid-Life
WPH Sparse Mid-Life
WPL Standard Mid-Life
Standard Mid-Life
WPH Standard Mid-Life

and so on. Maybe I should add WPM to the "normal" warp point ones or something so they all line up... what do you think?

[Atrocities]

Tis your mod Fyron and you have not steared us wrong yet. So I say do what you think is best.

Oh, all those damaging asteroids screwing over movement paths in the old Versions, and then the damaging WPs screwing over movement paths in the newer Versions were steered right?

[Atrocities]

Well now that you mention it, ya those were kinda painful. The damaging warp points too. I would start a game and all of my colony ships would be destroyed going through WP's.

That made for a fun game..... sometimes. It hurt me really bad in a few PBW games though.
