Default Re: Are homeplanets affected by high/catastrophic events?

EDIT: I can not reproduce the situation below any more. After the first plasma instability the new game starts always brought up catastrophic events within the first 10 years. So, HPs are affected... Just in some weird situations on my steam pc, they seem to be safe.
*********************
I guess, I could have found something. It sounds not feasible, but it seems to be true:

I have done 3 tests with different event FREQUENCIES in a 2 system galaxy. With these settings (but the percentages probably are not the problem) :

Event Percent Chance Low := 35
Event Percent Chance Medium := 50
Event Percent Chance High := 100

1) Event frequency high, no high/cat events for homesystem (like my other tests, also like my 800 year sim)

2) Event frequency medium, no high/cat events also

3) Event frequency low, and what should I say? Core instability in the home system after 5 years !!!

EDIT: Correction, now I see plasma instabilities very early with all event frequencies. I don't get what happens with some game starts I see no event, and then almost every turn...
