Oleg, I will email you the Events beta 4.03 file if you want.

Or just use v3.02

Do system-wide and planet-only condition improving abilities stack ? (I believe so)

Do several planet conditions improving buildings stack ? Probably not, but since Value improving do, why not conditions ?

I would believe system and planet effects stack, it is the case for other abilities, so why not for condition improvement?

As for your second question, here is yet another test.
Three level 5 CI on a Deadly planet, conditions 0.1 => The conditions are Harsh after 8 years, according to the calculations. (It takes around 25 years or so with a single level 5 CI, and 39 years with a level 3 CI) And it was only three CI, you could add a couple more to speed the process. (Seven years is all you need to transform a Deadly planet into a paradise with 10 level 5 CI. If you can afford it. )

Thanks for tests !
Next time I get deadly event on HW, I'll not give up but build 3 plants and hope for better. Might even make an interesting scenario.

However, there might be a trend for HW be protected, but it is not 100%. Only MM can tell us.
I have seen exactly this also in my first test run with AIC. But you have to take a careful look at the severity of the regarding event. Since I had a savegame of every turn, I found out this one has been the result of a medium event. I could send that turn if you like.

Longterm test run with 22 systems and 5 home systems is at year 3092.1 now. Still there are only two non-homesystems destroyed, no 1st homeplanets affected by catastrophic events (the event file is without high events).
I am going to continue this until all systems will be destroyed, probably the homesystems are the Last systems standing?
