Re: tech to make wormholes?
What Puke said.
Specifically the components are:
Gravitational Condenser -- Gravitational beam which closes an active warp point.
Gravitational Quantum Resonator Levels I to V -- Gravitational beam which opens a new warp point to a nearby system. Max distance is 100 to 500 light years respectively. 10 light years = 1 "box" on the galactic map, so you can open warp points at max distances of 10 to 50 boxes as you increase levels. Use Pythagorean theorem to calculate distances: c^2 = a^2 + b^2.

Re: tech to make wormholes?
or once you have the device, when you activate it, the map that you use to select the destination system will calculate distances for you.
unfortuneatly, you cant calculate distances before hand, to see how big of a device you will need.
there are lots of other neat goodies in the SM tech area. create planets, destroy planets, destroy stars. create ringworlds and sphereworlds. create and destroy storms and nebulae. of course, monolith facilities give you some of the best resource production in the long run.

Sorry Puke, but you can calculate the distance prior to trying the device. Just count the squares and use the Pythagorean Theorum to calculate the distance (like Slick said). Will be very close to what the game calculates. You can turn on the squares under to do the count and then shut them off again because they are annoying...Greybeard
