Re: Crystalline Resource Exploit!
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.  |

Re: Crystalline Resource Exploit!
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.

Re: Crystalline Resource Exploit!
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.

A Klemperer Rosette is several bodies of effectively equal mass locked into equivalent but rotated orbits about either a central body, or the center of mass of the system.
So, for instance, if you took five more Earths and placed them every 60 degrees around the sun, they would be very stable, and you'd have a Rosette.
