That event sounds cool. You wouldn't know if someone with a cloaked planet destroyer did it or if it was a natural event. Blame it on the Phong!

Well if you like that then you should get the event file from the Mod section, it is in the eyecandy zip.
With 20 new events and more on the way, There should be a surpise of some type in every game.


(man, I sound like a crackerJack ad: A suprise in every box)

Core instability events with longer warning times would be neat to add, as long as you're careful not to make the event as a whole become commonplace.

About how much longer time would you like?
Note:
(As once an event is active, no other random event can occur until the current event is complete.)

Oh really? What is the scope of that limit (per planet, per sector, per system, per player, per entire game?), and are you sure?

Yes I am sure, I have spent several weeks working with the events and changing the numbers in the setting file to an idea on how they work.
