We will all agree that it should be rewarding for many small planets to roid a big one.

However, this also rewards people that keep their value intentionally low and hit smallish to medium targets. The "returns on investment" from landing on a big active planet every once and again are not as high as landing on less active only just bigger than your planet regularly.

This is an issue that needs to be addressed to solve a big flaw in XP rewarding.
