There is no set maximum to the number of planets. However, you can expect there to be roughly the same number of planets that you see in the maps in the starter packages. We aren't going to stress test your bot by playing it on a map with 500 planets or anything like that.
The online tournament will start out using the maps from the starter packages. However, we will probably start rotating new maps in regularly. We will keep track of statistics on all the maps to figure out which ones are "better", so that we get a better and better set of maps over time.
