gandalf thanks thats good advice

aiken interesting however i suggest your ability trigger event un use be modified

Name := Phased Singularity Channel
...blah...
Ability 1 Name := Trigger Event On Use %of time
Ability 1 Description := Allow instant warping in random direction within range of 100 ly.
Ability 1 Val 1 := 50
Ability 1 Val 2 := Ship - Moved
Ability 1 Val 3 := 100

in this case 50 percent of the time the item will
work

my intendended application as follows

Name := solar engines
...blah...
Ability 1 Name := Trigger Event On Use %of time
Ability 1 Description := solar engines requiere solar collecters to operate and have a 40 percent chance of overload in multi sun systems.
Ability 1 Val 1 := condition #suns>1
Ability 1 Val 2 := 40
Ability 1 Val 3 := destroy component


note solar engines have only 10 supplies (ie 1 move on battery power)but start out with 1 bonus movement per sun
reasoning well it takes an extra 20 kt to fuel them with solar collectors or a supplies hold (batteries) and they are less effecient in low light (ancient star systems and they only provide 1 movement no bonus

oo add conditions checking when stellar manip goes off
add sun causes condition loss to planets
change in distance to sun being a factor in how severe
