Corrected error: deselect of travelling ship not correct. Refresh of star and sunsystem display after completeOrder now works. Management of more than one ship works. Warning: if 1000 ships are at the same coordinates, they are selected and moved together. This is quite slow.

31.10.99		Don't display unexplored sunsystems. Corrected error: update first sunsystem
25.10.99		Added logic for minimum distance between stars. Some correction for placement too close to border, call function toPrint of planet when clicking it.
24.10.99		Some extensions to class planet. Mark selected planet with circle. Corrected error: first sunsystem cannot be selected.
20.10.99		Corrected orbital distances. Corrected error: only gas giant type planets. Mark selected star with circle. Are two stars very close together, only the first gets selected. Corrected flicker in sunsystem display. 'new' still shows the old sunsystem.
19.10.99		Draw Sunsystem with planets and orbits. Add mousevents, display sunsystem on mouseclick.
18.10.99		Added frame for Sunsystem. Design layout, design drawing of sunsystem. Changed has-a relation between sun and sunsystem.
