    Just as a caution anyone setting up a game with custom planets should now that as of right now loading lots of planets in a system for a match is unstable. It seems that with more than 3 planets (excluding moons) the game will crash or take 5+ minutes to load and by that time most people will have quit. Plus with the number of players that can join the game 3 planets is MORE than enough to be a big match.

    So please, do not have more than 3 planets and if you want to smash things into each other have a maximum of one moon around each planet. That should make sure everything loads in ok (less planets the better right now).

    And please realize a 1 vs 1 match with multiple planets is near impossible to play as you will probably wipe eachother out anyway (if you are indeed going for competitive matches) before you can get orbital up and running.

    Ideal: 4 free for all 2 planets with 1 moon on second planet. That should give you decent load times and shouldn't crash your game, and the planets can be any size.

    Hope this helps.
