    Ninhursag seems to have dropped again. Connection impossible. Waiting patiently.

    Are you saying that home world locations are messed up on this server because some flag wasn't set?

    I've already given up on Ninsurhag. My home world spawned in one of the absolute corners of the universe, which I thought would be cool, but there are no other systems within 10 sectors, and the first ones I've found are already claimed by players with home systems right near them. I'm not a trader, so there is almost no point in continuing.

    Perhaps this will be resolver as new servers fill with greater quantities of players...time and patience...and bug squashing.

    No. The homeworld squares are picked at random around the universe before any planets are spawned. There are some restrictions on location, like an HW can't be placed in an empty space square, or a black hole, etc. Their locations remain fixed throughout the game. When a player joins a game the free HW sector list is scanned and the sector which has the highest avg distance from all other players is selected and assigned to the joining player. Players were irked in beta when they occasionally started right next to somebody, so we tried to space people out more. It is still possible to get a starting position that is terrible. It is also possible to get a starter system that has 5 Terrans, although it is pretty rare.

    Not much. A little more than launch weekend, but not a lot.
