Confirmed: You cannot create a star if a star is already present with Version 1.78. I too remember this being possible to do at one point. Don't recall exactly when it was patched out.

Multiple stars in the same system??? You could create multiple stars in the same SECTOR originally. When I complained about that as unrealistic MM changed it so you could only make one star per system. He does that sometimes -- 'overkills' a bug.

Google can't seem to decide whether the term is "Kempler Rosette" or "Klemperer Rosette", but it's several small bodies orbiting a larger one, spaced at regular intervals along the same orbit.

i would not call that overkill. i mean, i dont think there is enough matter in this solar system to scrunch together and make another star out of. not even a little one. one per system, unless they are naturally occuring, seems just fine to me.

Hehe... Game over, boys!

Yup, just took a picture of Rimmer with Mr. Flibble from www.reddwarf.co.uk, made a few copies of it, added the glow with GIMP, and stuck them all together with a GIF animator - now if only I could GIF's were higher quality...

... her, wait, coworker... You're reading the SE4 forums at work? Naughty, naughty Arkcon! That means you'll have to spend some time in Quarantine!
