"Lightweight" AA-A Hx systems

Just stumbled upon a sector less than 8 kylies from Sag A* where AA-A H0 system's main star is class K and generally looks like all AA-A Hx systems are G/K/F/M even L stars. No Wolf-Rayets, no BHs, Os, NSs, etc. Bug or feature...? :unsure:

Sounds like the sector is inside the suppression zone. It was meant to exist only around the bubble, but thanks to a bug (a typo), it exists as a cross through the galaxy. Take a look at the various relevant maps on EDAstro, for example, this one. Is the sector inside it?

You can also check that on the interactive map, it's visible if you switch to the Star Class view. You can also turn on displaying Sectors to verify that.

How's that? I thought the suppression zone was for <1k Ly on any of coordinates?

I believe this is just a side effect of how boxels work. The suppression zone varies for different star types, and I believe this is related to the mass code those star types are predominantly found. As you're looking at h mass, a better map to use for an idea on suppression zone is the wolf-rayet one:

You can see that extends over 1k to the west but over 2k to the east. I think rather than checking if individual coordinates are within the suppression zone, Forge just checks if the bottom-left-front coordinate of the boxel is, and for Egnaiw it just scrapes in.
