Ohh... I nearly forgot. Now we are talking about adding stuff to the FAQ, then I got some questions about sphereworlds and ringworlds.

What's the difference, where in the system are they created and can you create more than one ringworld/sphere world in a system?

And one more thing? I read in the FAQ and the data file that if I create a planet from a asteroide field, then it will be a random type planet/atmosphere type? Is there some way to control which type is created? I'm playing a game, where it's only possible to colonize your home planet type, so it's a waste of resources to create a different type of planet (Unless I wait for someone to colonize it and then conquer it with ground troops... But that seems like a long shot).

These different topics would be a good idea to mention in the FAQ... I would write it, but I don't know the answers :-(

An odd little quirk of the replacement is that building a ring/sphereworld around a star that is going to explode as a random event (you get warned 30 turns in advance in the log if you have a presence in the system then) prevents the explosion from actually happening.
