Nothing to go for

I actually like that (and since I see the light, they didn't spawn near each other in my current game .
When you take both planets and the one in between, you will have an easier time defending those planets compared to 2 single planets far away from each other. Than comes the part of logistics, including that once you have 1 planet you can often easilly also get the other as at that point it no longer is across the uni but only 1-2 wormholes away.

I'm actually really starting to like that about the map-generator and game itself, when you think you see a patern, it changes

Didn't Apple fella what's-his-chops commission an intentionally less-random random shuffle for the iPod in order to make it appear more random?

Might be some merit to that.

Yes, but I'm really opposed to that sort of thing.  I have special playlists set up in my MediaMonkey player with logic in them that helps e override stupid logic like that, in fact.  Having a truly-random galaxy is way more interesting.

Hell, it's actually sort of educational. People have a hard time with the concept of "random," anything that helps them cope with it is a good thing. Those of us who teach math and physics salute you.

Fair enough.

I fall on the fence on this one, to be honest. I mean, nothing's truly random anyway, right?

I guess it depend on how you look at it, when you know it will be random will it than be random ? If you dont know it will be more random then when you do know it will be random, or am I now just randomly making things up ??
