What are the chances of the X3 FL players not publishing any Maps on line?
Keep it to your selves, as an unwritten rule.
So to keep the mystery alive.

a much weirder thought: what would happen, if the locations of jumpgates are randomized to a certain extent? or if the sector map gets created dynamically at gamestart?

means: no spoiler-maps, because it's literally random...
requires just a few scripts to make sure that gates don't end up in other stuff, and that corners of the universe do not form rings that aren't connected to the main part. oh, and of course no shortcuts to the old sectors (if they even exist)

That has already been done RSM and I think XTC uses that, at least partially. The thing is, this would go against established lore and X3FL stays within the lore (as much as possible).

Since FL takes place during the jumpgate shutdown, wouldn't that mean that the game could randomly have certain gates shut down either oevr time or at the start of the game (potentially making a couple sectors (initially) inaccessible)? Or change gate connections randomly over time? (It is also noted in X4 that the gates were reconnected but to different locations after the gate shutdown.)

I don't know. but it since they can reach multiple other uninhabitated sectors, that should've been possible in X-rebirth and X4 (okay, I've played neither of them). I like that sectors are really big (the old ones were ludicrously small, like a 100x100km area in the orbit of a planet, even the ISS exclusion zone is larger).

that map is good to know how many sectors you still need to find but if you want to fly with it then you will see that there are a few things thats not right with the map an good example is Legend`s home it shows at the sector overview that it is connected with ianamus zura alpha. but still a good thing to know where to search for the missing sectors

No, XTC has a static universe that is completely new ("expansion region" - seperate from the vanilla universe). Its just not fully accessable at the start (many gates are unconnected at first). Over time the sectors open up.

Sure its been a while, I recall talking to enenra about it and was under the impression he had made something like that for XTC.
