Anyone else notice that there are never any Harsh or Deadly planets generated by the game? The only way you can get one of those is by turning asteroids into a planet or using a radiation bomb...

I have had a home world go DEAD on me due to random events.
It was too early for intel.

I've seen a few harsh I think...but never a deadly from the normal game.

I do believe you can create harsh and deadly planets in the map editor. I have never seen one created at random, though.

then this is a bug.

More harsh and deadly planets should be there, then people will think twice before making their ER 51%....
As well this might be used to balance some planet combos - like oxygen/rock which is too common, or hydrogen/gas and so on.

Taera, ER is 100% linear. It's effects are the same on planets of all conditions. I ran a test, and posted the results in PvK's Balance Mod thread (IIRC).
