Default Re: Proportions Mod: Multiplayer anyone?

The Sidereal quadrant in 1.5.3 has mostly colonizable systems. I'll do some trial setups and try to get something where we should have at least a 4:1 colonizable-system-to-player ratio, or so.

I'm not sure being surrounded by eye candy would be a huge problem in Proportions. It would be an obstacle to accelerated colony development, but also a protective barrier for your vital home system. If your were surrounded by real navigation hazards (ruptures/holes/etc) then it would be more severe, but again, highly-developed colonies aren't necessarily decisive, and a human can develop tech that can overcome the obstacles.
