Default Re: New PBW game: Ancient

if this is accurate, that message does not mean squat:

From Abilities:

Star - Unstable
Value1 = Chance that sun will explode each year.
Value2 =

From Stellar Abilities:

Name := Normal Star
Number of Poss Abilities := 2
Ability 1 Chance := 100
Ability 1 Type := Star - Unstable
Ability 1 Descr := Star is unstable and could collapse at any time.
Ability 1 Val 1 := 0
Ability 1 Val 2 := 0
Ability 2 Chance := 100
Ability 2 Type := Star - Unstable
Ability 2 Descr := Star is prone to violent eruptions and has an unstable core.
Ability 2 Val 1 := 0
Ability 2 Val 2 := 0


on the other hand, it might simply indicate that only those systems with that tag are candidates for the star destruction random event. i seem to remember a long time ago that value 1 indicated .1% /turn that the star would be destroyed. can anyone who has an old Version installed (like 1.19, i know its the same as above in 1.30) verify this?
