I hope that when generating the universe, both HW average distance, and sigma(deviation from standard distribution) planets within 20867 lY^2 (1 w9 hop) will be taken into account.

In a medium with 12 players the average HW has 1 neighbour at ~312 ly and another ~340-360, but 1/3 of the universes leave a player with no neighbours within 400 lY.

In a packed medium universe approx 71% HWs will have 7.825 stars within a single w9 hop. I think a 6.6-8.9 spread is reasonable; anything more than a 15% deviation could severely unbalance things from the start. Nearly 1 in 5 medium packed games with 12 players can have a HW with 19+ planets within a single w9 jump Cool

or the sucker that gets <15 planets within 2 w9 hops. Puppy dog eyes

When I make games I use two batch files. The first to gen the unis fast, and the second to open all the turns. This lets me look at several dozen games in about 20 minutes (including writing the batch). I hope this helps.
