Custom Made Solor Systems?

from Sins Forums
I'm not sure if this has been asked before;
But will there be a solar-system editor that allows players to choose where stars and planets are? (and also choose planetary and star routes?)

It would be an interesting feature, and would give alot of flexivity to the player.

knowing where everything is sorta takes the fun out of the "explore" aspect of the game...

Unless you need to set up star systems specifically for modding reasons.

looking at the system, I doubt thats how this works. maps are "random" generated, with stars creating a bullseye effect around the central star (which has the only connection to all other stars) and planets placed rather well around the star (with some wierd aesthetic issues)

in general the system is complex, but its not set, so I doubt such a feat is possible given the way the game works.

The only way what the OP is suggesting would work is if an option was added to load user created maps. I like the current random generated systems as it is now but his idea does have a use especially for mods. I am not sure if the forge tools will let you create fixed maps or not that will be for the devs to comment on.
