Default Re: Homeworld randomization is 90% likely a no-go

Further research seems to indicate that elegant homeworld randomization is impossible. I didn't add in extra star names, or change the CLAS of the special Glory star I created from yellow, but that would've looked sloppy in code anyway.

I wish WW had a randomization function. There's so many things that conspire to make it impossible for elegant randomization that it's infuriating. And unfortunately, I doubt there will ever be a patch to help in this aspect of mod design.

Randomization is critical to get Muktian variable relations to the advanced state that I desired. If it can't be done, then it might be better to give up on variable relations entirely and work on either learning how to do graphics, or finding someone else who can, so that parallel races can be made.
