I had only 2 systems and 2 players in my test.
The game refused to load the facility file if the ability was any more negative than -334 (or was it -333?), as can be seen in my test log.
I used an ability of -100 in my tests. I could use positive values greater than 334, but did not really test for the limit. I have no idea whether this trait is stored in 10ths or 1s. It would be best to ask MM on that, as randomness makes it difficult to test (that, and you can not use -1000...
).
