Post by Xan_of_Borg »

Hello,

you can adjust this value from this post
viewtopic.php?f=109&t=11
also discussed in this post
viewtopic.php?f=107&t=618&p=13384#p13384
position: 0x17D668
length: 8 bytes
default value: 0.2
description:
This value controls the number of minor races. Setting this to zero or lower led to a maximum of 4 minors under any settings. Setting this to 1.0 or higher resulted in 29-30 minor races on large irregular galaxies with minors set to "many".
Update:
The value seems to determine the chance that a given sector get a minor race during the placement of the races.
Apparently the sectors are scanned from left to right:
With the value set to 1.0, I observed a definite general accumulation of the minor races in the left part of the map.
