Hi,
it would be great if hosts could set the size of the universe. This has several benefits:
-Less server load if people just randomly fly around, forcing the server to create LOTS and LOTS of stuff that isnt used.
-More potential for player encounters
-Limited ressources that players will fight about
If possible, it could be done by entering the first sector after flying out of the farthest one. For example universe size is 20x20x20, if you fly towards 21 you will come out at 20 again. If not, an invisible wall accompanied by a message should suffice, are some sort of gravity pulling you "back to the playfield" once you exit. Could also be explained by "thrust not sufficient to exit Sun gravity" or sth. along those lines.
