Are homeplanets affected by high/catastrophic events?

Strong Not-intended-feature assumption with the events distribution. But I can not even tell it here, it looks like an exploitable bug.

Oleg, the other two races of my first test run (AIC) :

XiChung, MEDIUM Event, homeworld rebellion in 2413.8.

Sallegas homeworld loss has been funny:
A colonized world rebelled, the rebels have been partners (or MA), rebel partners had a fleet over Sallegas HP. Rebel partners HP died, Sallegas have lost contact to Rebel partners and the still existing fleet (without contact) over Sallegas HP has destroyed the homeworld.

Kool, scenario. I just might keep that one Medium Rebellion Event in the 4.b2 Event file, afterall

Of course High default is only 30% High chance, but may still lead to some interesting game play maneuvers.

No, this CAN NOT BE. It HAS to be a systematic error with the modified scenario. Before I can go on with the longterm high/catastrophic tests, I have to exclude this error. It could be a side effect of the one-event file or something with the random# tables... The 100% event chance is not the root cause.

I don't find it, it does not make sense, I will stop this. No matter what I change, all events are concentrated on ONE planet. Could be that the random generator is fed by the change of the galaxy, which is static in No-Ai mod.

PTF, with this NO-AI or just a Neutrals test, try to have a few LOW and Medium events in the file, as well; then try again see what happens.

Or just use Base se4 and delete the Colony modules or Colony hull, this also will stop AI expantion

Note: This also may give the same error if you are useing just High and Cat events... If just only Home Worlds exist without Colonies and without a low and Medium event in the file.

You may not have received that error when you tested AIC because you may have had that One Medium Rebellion in the file, not sure of your setup on that one.

Although I am surprised, if you look at your posted data that there was no MEDIUM Events listed and that Medium event only hit the AI. On the other hand, there were low and Medium events to the Eee but you just have noth a chance to post them?
