Yes, I just read your topic... Apparently we have some serious problems there that I need to address... However, when I wrote the missions the instructions were adequate - I agree with most of what you've said, but unless the planetary alignment was changed since I wrote it, you should have been able to hit 100% with your probes. Honestly that worries me the most.

i think i didnt get updates as i was defeated and not a new player. which would explain that portion

yeah i think if u dont have probe research the planet alignment may b out a little bit

I built it to work without probe upgrades. Perhaps the default probe range changed since? That said, the planet count problem was related to the overcrowded newbie arena - both should now have been fixed.

There are 6,981 in the Skylords universe.

There are over 900 new planets. I surmise that not all agree that this is not an appropriate level?

I want an automatic updater, based on a known formula, determined some how by the number of active players, which will maintain an appropriate planet distribution (allocation of PP) and number.

...please.

New planets appear to be x10's in systems with no suns.

Hmmmh.

anyway, I agree with pray. I also think that there should be a more even spread of planets in the galaxy. about only 1/27 of the galaxy is being used right now.

EDIT: sun-less planet systems confirmed here.
