how do you release a planet as a vassal?

[I got 1984'd]

playing 2.2 can't find it.

In the sectors section of the outliner, click the the little puzzle pieces next to the name of a sector and create a vassal out of the sector. I believe you have to do it by sectors now, not individual planets, but I'm not certain.

Saw that button in sectors; guess you can't, unless it's one-planet sector? (even then it will likely grab all sector systems too)

Thanks. Lame, I just lost a whole sector when I meant to release one planet.

Yeah, this new sector system is dumb af. Not sure how the devs thought this was a good idea.

Fk, settling a planet one system away from capital auto creates a new sector? And no way to change that? Really? FFS

The last major update still needed patching and then they do this. Not a good look.

yea I guess it will take them another 3-4 patches until they realize that there is actually no point in not letting players design their own sectors.... but they are kinda stubborn about giving up automatic controls they once implemented back to the player...

And there really is no point in not letting the player design his own sectors, just put in a size limit for sectors and you're save from players making one mega-sector to save on governors.

This. I'm a fan of 2.2.x overall, I've not hid that. However this would have been a much better approach to the whole deal. Even if they didn't want "mini-economies" anymore, okay fine. Take all of the mechanics you have now for their new operation and economic participation. Give back sector drawing, and put a hard limit on number of systems allowed in it. Done.

we need to keep complaining about the sector so they change it. There's not a good reason why the sector system is the way it is. When they changed FTL, lot of people complained but they had a good reason behind that so they won't change it. But I'm pretty sure they will for the sectors.
