Galaxies: clarify wording of completion condition.
A user mailed me today having found it less than clear from the docs that Galaxies will only accept a solution if the set of filled-in grid edges consists of _exactly_ the ones that separate two distinct regions, rather than consisting of _at least_ those and perhaps others which neither break rotational symmetry or disconnect any region.

You have a rectangular grid containing a number of dots. Your aim is
|
||||
to draw edges along the grid lines which divide the rectangle into
|
||||
regions in such a way that every region is 180\u00b0{-degree}
|
||||
rotationally symmetric, and contains exactly one dot which is
|
||||
located at its centre of symmetry.

to partition the rectangle into connected regions of squares, in such
|

a way that every region is 180\u00b0{-degree} rotationally symmetric,
|
||||
and contains exactly one dot which is located at its centre of
|
||||
symmetry.
|
||||
|
||||
To enter your solution, you draw lines along the grid edges to mark
|
||||
the boundaries of the regions. The puzzle is complete when the marked
|
||||
lines on the grid are precisely those that separate two squares
|
||||
belonging to different regions.

Left-click on any grid line to draw an edge if there isn't one

already, or to remove one if there is. When you create a valid

region (one which is closed, contains exactly one dot, is

180\u00b0{-degree} symmetric about that dot, and contains no

extraneous edges inside it) it will be highlighted automatically; so

your aim is to have the whole grid highlighted in that way.
