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

Human players and AI players Home Systems are absolutely destroyed by Type := Star – Destroyedwith se4 gold…
It has just happened to my Home System

The only protection from this, maybe with a high severity maximum setting for your pre-game start options.

What about just removing the event "Star – Destroyed" from the event file

I don’t remember any event hitting my home planet and I have been playing se4 for over a year

I was very sceptical too, but then my HW went from Good to Deadly in one month

However, there might be a trend for HW be protected, but it is not 100%. Only MM can tell us.

your saying you went from good to deadly, that is a what, -50 to 90 drop?
At -5 or a -10 even a -20 event how can you drop to deadly from good in one turn?

What are the numbers, if
100 is optimal
mild ?
good ?
unpleasent ?
harsh ?
0 is deadly

Apparently it works differently. Fyron mentioned planet conditions go from 0.0 to 1.50 I really would like to know how it works. I was really surprised when one planet went from good to deadly after -20 event.
