I congratulate you. That's the number I matched only recently, and even that after quite some discussions with Kotk.
BR, Iztok

Thank you for the congrats.
I should clarify, the 17 was a 17 divisor.
I since made one with 13 divisor that did a bit better - tiny bit better hab, slightly slower growth, less MM, earlier(!) mineral crunch, built miners earlier, mineral crunch gone. Can't work out a way to get the race design down to 10 divisor with the hab settings I want. Even at 13 divisor, can't get ARM or IFE. Hab is still 1 in 5 but better range of planets. Ran it in tiny dense, got 22K, ran it in tiny packed got 36K with tiny MM after yr 30, ran it again in tiny dense got 13 planets in whole universe = stuffed. So, a little bit of random hab kills it. Knew it would 
(Biggest problem with planet limitation = massive limit on growth. I can't get it better hab, can't get better divisor I feel it would stall in tiny U after about year 2455 or 2460 with maybe 60K res, especially if micro managed the whole way. Bad divisor means must spread to grow. But hell, not being able to spread means you're building BBs from mid/late 30s on and all starbases go DS in early/mid 40s and most go fully outfitted before 2450.)
Point is, AR is fun to test bed. Would like to play this one in a team game at some stage - could be useful to learn how it handles in the real world.
This is a great forum for reading through and getting advice and stuff, and the feedback is terrific.
