 =====Overview=====
 <SystemType> defines a type of star system. The type describes the creation of a star system, including the random placement of planets and stations. In addition, a SystemType may have handle events while the player is in the system.

 **noRandomEncounters=** If set to "true", this indicates that there should be no random patrols in the system.
-**spaceScale=** This sets the number of kilometers per pixel, or 1/24th the length of a light-second. By default, this is 12500
+**spaceScale=** This sets the number of kilometers per pixel, or 1/24th the length of a light-second. By default, this is 12500. Setting this to other values will affect the way distances are shown in the game.
-**timeScale=** This sets the number of game seconds that pass each real-time second. By default, this is 60.
+**timeScale=** This sets the number of game seconds that pass each real-time second. By default, this is 60. Setting this to other values will speed up or slow down the in-game speed. However, certain stats such as weapon fire rates, projectile lifetimes, and ship rotations do not seem to be affected
 =====Creating a Star System=====
 To create a star system from a SystemType definition, the engine looks for the <SystemGroup> element in the SystemType.
