Restarting until 2nd sector is wanted one.

I want to restart until one of the 2nd sector is an abandoned one, how can I do that ? I may be wrong but ftl profile editor doesn't see to show that, all I see is "T,F,F,F,F,F,F,F,F,F,F,F,F,F,F,F,F,F,F,F" even when I reach the final beacon, should the next sectors be generated only when I reach this one.

It's especially good to know for people who want to unlock the crystal cruiser, not playing the whole game for nothing since the rock homeworlds isn't even here.

I haven't tried in AE, but IIRC back in the original version the red/green/purple sector layout map was generated when you arrived at the final beacon of sector 1 (or maybe when you opened the map), and the actual sectors were generated when you arrived at the final beacon of the sector before them.

So you can't look at your save and see what the sectors are. You actually have to trek over to them. However, if you make a save one jump from the exit, you should be able to generate a new map each time without having to run through that first sector.

How can I do luck manipulation to this then ? I tried upgrading ship etc before jumping to exit and I had the same sector map than when I jumped right away.
