Default Re: Are homeplanets affected by high/catastrophic events?

I still try to find them Home System novae, seems to be extremely rare. Can you recall if the regarding games have been turn based or simultaneous?

A 500 year simulation with one high event in the events.txt has shown no event. I thought there could be a difference with cat. events, especially with star or planet destroying events. Currently in progress (360 years) is a test with the following events.txt:

Type := Planet - Value Change
Severity := Catastrophic
Effect Amount := 1
Message To := Owner
Num Messages := 1
Message Title 1 := Catastrophic Event
Message 1 := A cosmic storm has damaged the value of planet [%PlanetName].
Picture := PlanetValueWorse
Time Till Completion := 0
Num Start Messages := 0

Type := Planet - Destroyed
Severity := Catastrophic
Effect Amount := 1
Message To := System
Num Messages := 1
Message Title 1 :=
Message 1 :=
Picture := PlanetDestroyed
Time Till Completion := 10
Num Start Messages := 1
Start Message Title 1 := Core Instability Detected
Start Message 1 := A growing core instability has been detected within planet [%PlanetName]. Our scientists predict it will destroy itself in approximately 1 year.

Type := Star - Destroyed
Severity := Catastrophic
Effect Amount := 1
Message To := System
Num Messages := 1
Message Title 1 :=
Message 1 :=
Picture := StarDestroyed
Time Till Completion := 30
Num Start Messages := 1
Start Message Title 1 := Plasma Instability Detected
Start Message 1 := A plasma instability has been detected within the star [%StarName]. Our scientists predict it will destroy itself in approximately 3 years.
