Default Re: Custom map generation programs

Your problem interested me so I tried something along those lines...

This is the result and the problems I saw right off.

First it doesn't display the star on top but the Last item for that sector created.

All the stars are considered part of the same system so are labeled that way.

The planets are labeled as Whatever Star A, B, C, etc. probably has to do with being right over the star. Hrmm... Come to think of it, it most likely relates to the planets being considered moons of the Star.

Also you might run into some other problems with technology. A star destroying component would be devestating. And those Crystaline resource generators.

Ermm... I don't know.. you might get some error message about atmosphere or something or maybe not. I just copied from my standard files and I know I have modded so much stuff that I can't keep track of it. Though this should be close to what you want regardless as the error Messages I got weren't fatal or crashing type things.

I tried this with 4 stars randomly positioned with rings and then some planets and asteroids and a mix. Something like this what you had in mind?

PS: I whipped this up in a few minutes while I had some free time so I in no way guarantee any minnimum of quality in it.
