I've tried a number of things, and this just isn't working out.

This code is similar to the other five code files, which make the player's relations with the Zorg/Muktians friendly, hostile, and do nothing (keeping it neutral).
I used an explore condition earlier, to be attributed to a random star, but the problem is that this just meant that a star, somewhere in the galaxy, would hypothetically change your relations; you might not bump into it until after you've already met one of the alien races, and it'd be pretty obvious upon reaching it that your relations just changed, since the event was mutually exclusive with other events on the star.
If this can't be resolved, then I guess I'll be forced to give up on the idea of varying existing races' relations, and fall on a backup idea of mine; make a bunch of races with very similar ships, but different personalities, graphics, etc. to existing ones, and have those serve as evil Muk/Zorg/etc. The only problem with that idea is that it requires graphics and sounds that I don't have, so.
