It seemed there was some popular demand for it... ;)

My quiet status up to now says it all.

Is there a Milky Way galaxy map with Earth starting position anywhere?

[Darkspire]

No but you can make one with the editor in Universe  ;)

I would imagine that things will start being made fairly soon, once folks get the hang of things.

That girl's been around the internet for quite a while. I recall a photo of her wearing a t-shirt that said: "Not Everything in Florida is Flat".

[JudgeDredd]

Never heard of or seen her

I picked up Distant Worlds: Universe on sale at Steam yesterday.  Spent about two hours with hit today and I must say color me impressed with the gameplay.  This is probably the most streamlined empire management system set in space.  I like the game a lot.

My only complaint is that even on my new laptop this game takes a long time to load up.  Makes me wonder how long other Matrix monster games like GGWITE take to load up.

WitE doesn't seem to take near as long to load.  I'd say Distant Worlds is probably has the longest load time of all the Matrix/Slitherine games I've played.

+1  I have had the same experience with both games.  Not sure why DW takes so long. But once it is up and running I have had no performance issues at all.

I'm sure it pre-loads much of the 'stuff' into memory so that it doesn't bog down while running in real-time.  There must be a helluva lot of 'stuff' however, because it takes an unusually long time compared to others.
