Is there a way to reduce system size?

I already found in "settings.txt"
Code:

System Width In Hexes := 26
System Height In Hexes := 20


Someone here suggested 20x15, but that crashes the demo. Even 24x18 looks oddly, as if some 'radius' or 'cropping range' is missing or too big - the systems start looking 'squared' at 24x18 again, the 'corners' too much filled up ..
Is it by chance "System Point Radius From Center := 410.0" .. dunno what to do with a point range here, though


Is there a way to reduce the chance for nebula sectors?


Thanks!
