Congratulations! (Heh, Sorry, I just saw that sentence, and I wondered what exactly you were trying to say)

Well, as I was saying earlier, I try to set the game to 'High' event severity. Looking through the datafiles, I found that the planet and star destroyed events are both catastrophic. Since I usually set events to 'high' I have to wonder if I either forgot to set the event severity correctly or if there is a bug in the game that makes planets explode despite what setting you used. So either it's a bug or I forgot what I added two hundred turns ago when I started the game.

Maybe it's old age or something...

Thanks all,

Its been several years since I first noticed the unstable bit, so you must be right. Its a t risk, but not doomed. Once I finish off my current enemies I may start diverting some resources to a ringworld just to be safe.

I managed to get out of mineral debt and have pushed the Krill back to their home sector, and am massing for the kill. I even have enough of a surplus that I have been able to crank out a bunch of shiny, new missle cruisers and battleships. Ahhh...vengeance shall be mine!

bump

There is a planet destroyed event that sometimes occurs no matter what you have your setting on. It seems to be hardcoded as the message is different from the one in the random events file. I think it is linked to one of the research area's. As I have cleared the events.txt file completely out to test new events and still have seen this.

A half year old post. Funny

[Dracus]

yes but the this post is in relation to the star destroy post, so it was bumped back up.

You could have just posted a link to this old thread , like I do for my Pirates & Nomads mod

Just type, with out the newlines:

And if you don't want to bother typing the UBB codes, just cut & paste the URL itself. The board converts it to a link automatically.

Cap'n Q

The most merciful thing in the world, I think, is the inability of the
human mind to correlate all of its contents. We live on a placid
island of ignorance in the midst of black seas of infinity, and it was
not meant that we should go far. -- HP Lovecraft
