Default Re: Giant Stars?

Actually you can do it without a mod. The game considers these giant star and other funky systems to be simply normal systems. There are three types of systems. Normal, nebulae, and black hole. Everything else is just background pics and abiliites.

What you do is you build a ship with a star creator and build a star in the center of the system. Then collapse that star into a blackhole. That will change the system type and the background pic.

THen you collapse the black hole and you are left with an empty system with just the regular starfield background. You can then build another star there and turn it into a spherewolrd later if you want. But there is no way to get planets or asteroids into it with the stock game.
