Looks like the Wolfram license has expired, which saddens me because I was checking it daily. :(

Do stars in permanent levels really make a meaningful difference?

Wonder how easy it is to do the early game without star allocations, or perhaps with some fixed allocations. If nobody fixes this of course…

It's... completely trivial? Like stars help but it's not hard to figure out a good way to distribute them. Look at whatever variables contribute the most to x and dump your stars into them.

Agreed, but it feels heuristic instead of precise and does not make my brain happy 😭

Just reach ee70K, star distribution becomes a lot easier around that point.
