Gateway map changed?

Gateway has always been one of my favorite maps but i just played it on 1.1 and it was completely different.  Gateway's starting system used to have many many planets but now it's a reourceless wasteland of endless asteroids.   Was this changed with 1.1 and what other maps were changed?

Was this changed with 1.1

I don't think so.  It was also one of my favorites. I compared it to my old drawn map, and its essentially the same!

But, note that each time you start a new map, the resource (and artifact) distribution changes!  Including some slightly different planet types.

Tip: To quickly view an entire map, Surrender then Keep Playing, and all will be instantly revealed.  Try this with a few new games to see the differences.

The game i played recently had every planet in the home system except for the homes were asteroids.  Every one.  I was used to see a few desert and ice worlds mixed in but this one threw me for a loop.  Personally it made the rush to hold gateway and the other system all that much more important and upped the pace of the game.  very fun
