AMENDING YOUR SPACE MAP

by Hazed

Last week I told you that when you are ready to add a second planet to your system, you will have to make an orbit location for it somewhere on your space map. But actually, that's not all you have to do. You also need to make sure the rest of your space locations make mention of the new planet.

If you have a one-location space map, with the link and orbit in the same place, it probably says something like "Welcome to the Newstar system, home of the planet Bodville. Board your shuttle here to visit the planet and enjoy the trading opportunities."

Or if you have separated the link and orbit, the link description will say something like "Welcome to Newstar. The planet Bodville is to the south."

So now you need to add a new orbit location for the second planet, called Bodopolis. But you should also go back and edit the link description so it mentions both planets, and gives directions to both of them. Otherwise players aren't going to be able to find it easily!
