To expand on my earlier tip for low research costs (which was promptly upstaged by the alltech cheat ), most of the game settings (that are greyed out in the demo) can be changed by going into settings.txt...for example, to start with 3 planets, rename 'Starting Planets Player Low' to 'Starting Planets Player Medium' (and vice versa)..

Have the cheat codes been posted? If not perhaps we should post them.

Ridiclously small, actually. Seems Aaron listened to the Starfury "all the ships and sats are too big!" complaints.

The scale of SE V is completely different than Starfury. You need to be able to see what is happening to many ships at once, so of course the view is further out and the ships are smaller. In fact, we've been asking him to let us zoom further out!
