skoormit wrote on Tue, 03 February 2009 04:27 | Okay, I finally got StarEd working, and it will not take long now to get a suitable uni. However, I noticed after the first gen that one team has all race names the same, while the other teams have different names for each race. I want to ask if perhaps the players would prefer that the race names be differentiated on this team as well?

If you are talking about the Chemicals, we only have our plural name the same, afterall we are a TEAM.
IIRC Stars! renames races to default names when there are one or more the same. IOW if there is a team with next to the same plural also the same single name you better check that after creating the game two of the three don't have names like The Uberts, The Weasels, ...

Hi ,
Micha means that they want the plural the same name that the other teams have to do a little bit more work to check.

Have revised the race names to be different - left the plural name the same to represent the team.
I forgot that our own team members might get confused as well.

They are random i dont see you doing it a 100+ times so a decent one where we can get are teammates close to us is fine. good luck and thanks for your time doing the uni. Can i just get a time listed on when you think we might be ready to play. will it be within a week?

The goal was to have every team in its own quadrant. I have now succeeded, having come up with a simpler approach than what I had been trying. Every team is in its own quadrant. Player order within teams is preserved as requested by each team, but player order is not by teams. Player 1,2,3 are not on team A, in other words. Team A might be player 1, 6, 10, for example.
I am waiting for Xardre to inform me what the next step is now that I have a uni generated.
Caveat: There is at least one team with at least one race with a second starting planet. At least one of these second starting planets is slightly over the border of its race's quadrant.
What we need's a few good taters.Report message to a moderator

Hmmmm, I hate to be pedantic but, if one race has a gate in another quadrant I think that the game will start badly out of balance.
