You can make a star in any system that doesn't already have one, and you can make a ringworld or sphereworld around any star, including the remnants. If there is nebula or black hole in the system, you need to destroy that first.

If I remember right, it takes 2.9 years to build a ringworld generator with a spaceyard III, and 5.4 years to build a sphereworld generator (if this isn't right, it's close). You can build either around any available star.

Another question:

If you build a sphereworld around an existing star, does the game cut off energy to other planets in the system, or does it just ignore it?
