Not quite reading the entire thread but my 2 cents of simulation is this
If the system has bases in it...doesn't it need to be lightly simulated at least for production and taxes? If we are ONLY talking about render then yes 230k systems is completely and utterly absurd given that its a new universe and there aren't 230 people playing.
It all depends on where that simulation for bases and cities and such, is ... in the code for simulation.. Technically orbits COULD stop when no player is in a system..but wouldn't this mess with calculations of solar power and farming?
Maybe I'm just confused on how the game is simulated...are cities on a completely different part of the simulation you guys are talking about? Cuz it's def possible to hit a number like that in a mature universe, AND expected for an MMO (anyone saying otherwise...you must love limitations! It's not limited..so you can take EVERY planet..EVERY system...wouldn't that kill hazeron tho utterly from what you guys are saying?)
What are you guys calling "Simulated"? Are we talking orbits or just background data?
