The system name file in the B5 Mod has around 250 systems as well - all from the B5 universe, natch!

How do I make my games create the extra systems (200+)? Do I just edit a text file?

And then afterwards, do I just add in extra system names to systemnames.txt?

You need to edit settings.txt. It's near the top of the file. DON'T set it over 255, the game will crash.

After that, add more system names to systemnames.txt. Otherwise, the extra systems will be unnamed.

EDIT: clarified.

Yes:
Settings.txt will have a setting for maximum systems.

Yes:
If systemnames.txt has too few names, the remaining systems are unnamed. Adding more fixes the problem.
