Cool! I may look into this myself; I have an unfinished Java star system creator lying around, though I only got as far as making a graphical image for the star system.

So, just as a note. I started this in Java and moved over to C#. It took quite a bit of time to relearn a few things.

I assume that was for reasons relating to graphics?

and wow there are a lot of half finished versions of this.

Yeah, Windows Forms was easier for me than trying to learn swing.

As for the half-finished, the master branch contains 0.4.3 as of the most recent commit. I was planning on a new UI and adding some planned features, but that needs some planning. 0.4.3 was really kind of a "push out what I have, see if there's any bugs in the base generation I'm missing, then improve it."

ETA: Hum. Something's off about that last commit. I'm missing some objects. One sec.

I fixed it, for some reason it dropped a lot of files off tracking.

Master branch is now updated, and shouldn't be missing 18 files (!)

Hrm. Looks like it would be more accurate to say I *had* a star system creator lying around, but it looks to have gotten lost somewhere in the shuffle; I worked on it maybe three or four years ago, and I have no idea where it went since then. Maybe I still have it archived somewhere *shrug*

Downloaded the code. Will look at it later.
