I have a memory there is a way to restart with the same setup if you are dissatisfied with where the game puts you in the universe or with the home solar system etc
In other words, to generate a new universe on the same settings, but without having to click through all the setup screens to do it

Does anyone know?

Start a new custom game and the settings you last used are there. Just click the "next" button 6 times and you're generating a new universe.
AFAIK there is no single button to do this.

But I have the notion there is a way to do it quicker than clicking through all those setup screens

Maybe the memory I have is from another game
it's been a while

It wasn't GalCiv2
I have never managed to get into that game for some reason
Might have been Civ5....perhaps?
