Interesting I wonder if you built 15 or 16 of them used atmosphere facilities on them and changed them into different atmospheres if an AI race would start out on a ringworld? Hmm a filled ringworld start that would be interesting. I will have to test that in a couple of weeks after I build a few ringworlds .

Since a homeworld is FILLED at start I think that you'd have to hard-code it NOT to allow anyone to start on a constructed world if you wanted a fair start. Or at least have a setting that controls this. So, if you are a masochist and want the challenge you can allow it.

Why don't you just post it here? You must have discovered a tag that can be put in the systemtypes file that makes a ringworld or sphereworld appear?

So, Markavians, what is that e-mail adress. I have tried to mail you from US, but no response. I would REALLY like to know how to make a system with ring/sphere world.

I have e-mailed John from US without a response also.

I wanted to know if he was going to update the SEOR fleet to the 1.27 patch, and when it will be available.

I've gotten some recent email from John. He mentioned that he just started back to school the week and says he's extremely busy right now. Maybe things will slack off and he'll have more time for SE4 stuff in a little while.
