They are just an empty system that does nothing.

So has anybody tried to create a star in this type of sytem? Can it be done, or is that only allowed in Nebula systems? I'm pretty sure it is only eye candy, but you never know... There may be an easter egg there...

Does anyone know if there are plans to make the systems more than eyecandy?

I woudn't mind them, since they are good looking, but they are just too darn big!

I mean, super dense cores are as big as 4 stars!! That's a black hole, not a super dense core...

It's on the suggestion list, but I don't know what MM's plans are about it.

Is the suggestions list posted anywhere that we can see? Would love to know what people think is hot and what y'all are working towards - aside from the most perfect 4x game ever http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

In the meantime, one could mod SystemTypes.txt to give them system abilities.
