Tim, stop harassing newcomers. And remove that giant red text.
But yes, this should at least be moved to the proper subforum, which would be Space Journeys. Sigeu, welcome to the forum and make sure to read the forum rules. For future reference, be mindful of where you're posting, and whether a relevant thread for your post already exists. And try not to use unusual font formatting if it's not needed. Thanks

Found it. 931 is the first generated star system in this galaxy.
edit: Wait, no, I'm not quite right. It's the system with the smallest 0-0-0-0-xxxx-0-0-0 coordinate, but there are systems with smaller xxxx that do not end in 0-0-0. (E.g. RS 0-0-0-0-930-1-0-0, which exists). The smallest of those would be harder to find.
Edit2: Okay, I got down to RS 0-0-0-0-918-9-0-0, and I'm stopping there. SE likes to crash while I enter various combinations.
Whelp, so much for that theory! I thought that with decreasing the first coordinate, once it stopped returning existing systems then that was the end of the line unless the values for the last three coordinates were increased. Clearly the distribution is not continuous as I had thought.
The smallest value I've found now is RS 0-0-0-0-34-0-0-0, and I've confirmed that there's nothing smaller that ends in triple zeroes. Getting close.
^They're hard to come across randomly since they're quite dim, but if you increase galaxy magnitude limit (which also includes nebulae) you can see there's quite a lot of them around. I think they look pretty nice.
