I am not sure if this is a bug or not so I put this topic here for discussion.
In the few games I have played, from exploring the first 10 systems, I am continuously getting systems with class M stars that are either completely empty or only containing a few comets and bodies that are inhabitable. This is different from playing in older patches and VB6 where there are more interesting systems.
There isn't much information I can find about the rules for system generation, is this normal and I am just getting very unlucky with the rolls, or is it a bug? If this is normal, then it is very boring to play if all the systems are empty.
I am playing in patch 1. 13 with known star systems and using the aurora patcher for a different theme color. Is known star systems causing this problem?
I posted two examples below, the first one has 7 empty systems and other 3 are basically empty. The second is better with 5 empty systems. However both have 90% M class stars.
