also..i have the specifics for the cloaking planet facility...as i said,it works,but with the side effect of having to reload the game after it's built(dunno if it's only once,or after each one is indivdually built,haven't gotten that far yet)..but if anyone wants it to try and tweak themselves or to use lemme know

Is it possible to make a facility that would attract/repulse ships like the stelar ability?

Is it possible to make facilities which would requie the "use" button? i mean, any facility that would be activated by this?

I'm interested in the cloaking facility. Please post your data or email/PM it.

Monsters in Devnul mod have cloaked planets. Although it is done through bases, IIRC.

Maybe bury a few research "Easter Egg" goodies by crossing 2 special racial techs deep down the tree.
There's at least one mod that has "crossover" techs that require two racial techs. I think those are in Pirates & Nomads, but I'm not sure.

Yes, P&N does have them, but they're not secret at all

The ever-popular Biocrystal armor, harmonic shields, Spirit Crew quarters, etc. One for each pair.

Now that's the stuff I'm talking about! You may have just convinced me to finally try P&N to ckeck it out.

I guess an easter egg really refers to a tech being buried, or really hard to get. But I like crossover techs in general. Opens the creativity up a bit.

Hard to get cause it costs lots of research -- sure

Hard to get becuse it requres lots of prerequsites -- sure

But how can you hide it, when anyone can print up a complete tech tree whenever they want?

SJ, how would you propose people to make these tech grids? Doing it by hand is a major PITA.
