O type stars and NGC 7822

I find it interesting that there are so many O type stars in the same vector. They are almost all in a straight line. I wonder what caused this to happen? Was it just random? Was it gravitational pull that slung them into the vector they are in? Was it the Thargoids? :eek:

I really am curious.

The same goes for NGC 6611. If you look at all the F type stars you will notice that they aren't in a globe, but in a rectangle. Odd,

I trhink this was sort of answered in an earlier post regarding a line of stars named MASS 2 (?) or something that someone else pointed out. It likely has to do with the mapping of "real" stars.


So, Stellar Forge apparently is good at throwing around all the procedurally-generated stars in random space but the real stars, who's distance is approximated, sometimes lines up rows like what's seen in 7822. This is likely not what's completely true in real-life but what we wind up getting in-game. It'd be nice if it'd be random-generated to offset that affect. You'll find it in other places in the galaxy as well.
