Select Empire

The most important choice is to select an empire but also the other options are important. After the choice press OK to start the game.

Galaxy Size

Available (Width - Height), defined in UniverseTables.txt

Beware of: With a small galaxy the game might not start because it has MinDistance between stars and homeworlds. With 24x16 the game should run always.

  • Tiny 24 - 24 (sum = 576 sectors)
  • Small 36 - 36 (sum = 1296 sectors)
  • Medium 48 - 48 (sum = 2304 sectors)
  • Large 60 - 60 (sum = 3600 sectors)
  • Huge 80 - 80 (sum = 6400 sectors)

Galaxy is sub-divided into four Quadrants

Galaxy Shape

Star Density

Sum of sectors (see above) is divided by

  • Sparse: /12 (example at "large" galaxy: 3600 sectors / 12 = 300)
  • Medium: /10 (example at "large" galaxy: 3600 sectors / 10 = 360)
  • Dense: /8 (example at "large" galaxy: 3600 sectors / 8 = 450)
