That's it I think. In one start I saw while doing some experiments I had 3 of my planets with a couple of enemy planets in a black hole system. That was an extreme setup with 10 planets per player, many computer players and neutrals on a small map. I wonder if ships would drift away from the planets into the black hole as soon as they are build? I didn't try it out.
