How to Add Damaging Storms

[Suicide Junkie]

1) Create two new races;
- Natural Phenomena 1
- Natural Phenomena 2
They should be enemies with everyone, including each other.
2) Create an asteroid-shaped satellite for use by the new races. It should have a single, unique slot. The sat should be given an inconspicuous name, like "Storm Asteroid".
3) Create a component for that unique slot which provides tons of hitpoints, regeneration and a beam weapon that looks somewhat like a lightning bolt.
4) Seed certain nebulae with these sats. One race above the xy plane, and one below.

The storm asteroids will zap any ships entering the damaging storm, and when no ships are nearby they will zap each other for ambiance!
