Default Re: Quadrant Types vs Starting Planet Type

The data for each sector type is stored in one of the .txt files in the data directory. You will also find which sector types the various choices for quadrant type lean toward.
You learn interesting things in these files, like the fact that all trinary systems ALWAYS have one asteriod belt.
Like the fact that moons are pre-determined, and that by counting them you can tell which standard star-system type you received.
Like the fact that almost every single sector will possess one storm and one asteriod near the outside edges.
Go ahead, dig into them files. There is a ton of usefull info to extract. Hell, I found a switch to set the number of population units it will take to operate one facility... hows that for expansion control?
