I was able to get the login screen, but 3 successive attempts returned "wrong password". Since i was cutting/pasting each time, i doubt i mistyped it.

I have to be at work for the next 6 hours. I'll check back here when i return.

I can log in to the server with game #5 still running.

I think it ended up being ~23, right? Weren't there 140 systems for 6 players?
Something like that. And IMO that was way too quick to meet neighbours. No fun with exploration and scouting.

I had a recollection that these were already two separate options, but now that i'm looking i can't find one. Can someone confirm (or deny) that whether the graphs are displayed is controlled by RULE_SHOW_DETAILED_EMPIRES_DATA?

Oh... I counted ~95 systems in swaq's screenshot, +5-10 from the unseen Swiss space, say 105/6 ~= 17-18 systems per player.
To get to 140, o01eg's must have, he alone, over 45 systems, more than twice anyone else. Wow.

Anyway, then I'd be happy with 20 (or even 25) systems per player. More time to get to late-game techs, which would be good also for bug-hunting.

i can confirm that that rule controls the graphs. I say we play with it off and remain mindful of the upgraded weapons bug (which I might try to fix with a PR)

There are unseen systems in Magnate's area too. The [Game - Systems] Pedia page has 102 entries for me. So maybe it's 110-120 systems total then (18-20 per player)? I could have sworn I saw a 140 number at some point. I think 25+ systems per player would be nice.

No, It controlled by separate option network.server.publish-statistics: https://github.com/freeorion/freeorion/pull/2280

Do you get OTP in e-mail?

I suppose Pedia page shows "Number of Systems: 108" - 18 per player.

Then can we have at least 20 systems per player this time? I do think it would be a good idea to reach more late game techs for bug-hunting.

For late game techs I can reduce tech cost.

Also there still more systems. Three remaining alive players still need to research more.

Maybe you miss correct e-mail and tried to enter previous non-actual password?

And it looks like it finally worked: i'm in.

Thanks for your patience, all.
