@Sudakan,

> new definitions
> verycloseplanets:
> closeplanets:
> nextplanets:
> otherplanetsminhomeworlddist:

We're currently working on verifying the definitions we have for 'closeplanets' and 'verycloseplanets', but, at this time, there don't appear to be any major changes. The 'otherplanetsminhomeworlddist' parameter appears to be working exactly as specified.

I've never seen a definition for 'nextplanets'. It's not used to generate a map.

Could you provide additional information, either in this thread, or by PM?

this is what I found in the help:

Homeworld Planets < 81 LY ( verycloseplanets parameter) — This is the minimum number of planets within 81 light-years of each Homeworld. The default is 2. See note 1.
Homeworld Planets < 162 LY ( closeplanets parameter) — This is the minimum number of planets more than 81 light-years from the Homeworld, but less than 162 Light-Years distant. The default is 12. See note 1.
Other Planets Min Dist ( otherplanetsminhomeworlddist parameter) — This is the minimum distance that other planets are allowed to be to a Homeworld. This distance can be less than 162 light-years. The default value is 155 light-years. See note 1.

In my current 2 games the numbers add up. Can you confirm why it is different for you @Sudakan.

Very Close planets = number of planets within 91LY.

Close planets = number of planets between 81LY and 182LY.

So very close + Close = number of planets within two jumps at warp 9.

The 'verycloseplanets', 'closeplanets' and 'otherplanetsminhomeworlddist' don't appear to be a problem. I checked and the defaults for custom games are still unchanged. Apparently @Joesnoffy adjusted the game parameters a bit when he generated the game.

As far as I can see, there's nothing wrong with any of this.
