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

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?

Done that, all severities implemented, multiple events implemented - same result

I assume the no expansion itself is part of the problem.

I have not posted them, because it takes time to copy/paste them from the txt files.

Eee have seen about 78 low events, 70 medium events additional to the posted events.

I think about a multiple 100 years test with my old setup disregarding the one planet event issue. I have seen 1 event per turn with medium/low and no event with high/cat so far. I mean, whatever causes the massive concentration of events could not have an influence on the question about the frequence of high/cat events on homeworlds, right?

I start with high events test.

BTW, since I can not find the reason for the events concentration, the results about lucky/cursed trait are somewhat questionable.

If you tried base se4 without the Colony equipment, along with all events and still had the error, it sounds probable you are right.

No, no need to post them, unless some one else would like to see the data. However, I would be interested in (APROX. numbers only) how many Low and/or Medium actually may have hit Eee’s Home World.

Your test seemed straight forward.

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

PTF, not to burden the tests even more, I am on board with Fyron and Oleg and still question whether the Home Systems are safe from event Type := Star - Destroyed, even with that event in Cat class

What are your thoughts on a way to absolutely resolve this with a test?
