The Last I heard, it was a system type.
A little odd, and will probably be ignored by modders in favour of the other cool new system types, like red giant star

Comet System Types?
Comets are small objects taking large trips around our solar system. They should be objects in a system, not system types.

But they make such a large orbit that they wouldn't realistically eb in the 'system' proper for more than a few turns at most. I guess you could have them leave the system but that would be hard too.

We'll have to wait and see then.

BTW: please give me a scenario editor/cheatmenu in GOLD!!!

"Comet system" might refer to a system with comets; or a system with a really LARGE number of comets.
