Default Re: Stellar Manipulation again..

Nebula systems in randomly generated maps in stock and just about every mod are completely empty. Get rid of the nebula, and there'll be nothing left but warp points. You can create a star and build a ringworld/sphereworld around it, but that's all.

If the nebula happens to have been artificially created by stellar manipulation, any planets that were present before the nebula was created will still be there as asteroid fields, and will even be visible with the nebula still there, provided you have sufficiently high-tech sensors to see through the nebula at all.

Two stars = 2 ringworlds or sphereworlds, whichever you decide to build. Three stars makes possible the Triple Molly, or three ringworlds in the same system. I don't know the origin of the term, but I believe it's somewhere in the Encyclopedia Malfadorica. Now for something really impressive, find a five-star system in, say, Adamant Mod and build ringworlds around all five of them. Bonus points if the system has random movement.
