No problem. I'm debating with myself whether or not I want to make the Spatial Rupture systems have the black hole type so the black hole destroyer can eliminate those, or just keep them.

IIRC, the nebula destroyer (judging from the description at least) puts a star in the middle of the system. Has anyone managed to go do that? (I know, I know. I'll have to get the tech and try on my own.)

Spatial Ruptures doesnt have to be a Black Hole; If you say that a Nebula imploded, It can be making a star.

If you say that a Star Imploded, it's a black hole.

If you say that a Black Hole imploded, You can say that it's a Dense Singularity (even though if such things existed it would be hell for the galaxy) or a White hole

Or why don't you say that the Time-space fabric collapsed? Make it so that whatever ship goes to the center, make it transport the ship randomly throughout the quadrant?

Just Some ideas.

It was more making the system type a black hole so it could be destroyed by the black hole destroyer. After all, there is no Create/Destroy Spatial Rupture component available.

Well I was kinda talking about that; I'm just saying that it should be modded based on the description.

Sorry if it wasnt clear, eh?

Here's an addon to the systemtypes:
Wonder Systems

There is:
- A nomadic planet (with lots of moons)
- A starsystem running into a turbulence (every object has a storm hanging onto it).
- A system with a twin/dual world. (Two large planets in same sector, acting as a moon to each other)

In lieu of my enhancing of the sensor components for my personal mod, I think I am going to make blackhole and large star systems completely disrupt Gravitic sensors.

I mean- if a black hole won't disrupt gravitic sensors, nothing will!

But of course, I can't do that, since there doesn't seem to be a way of disrupting a particular sensor type.

Rats!

SJ, your Wonder 1 system is fantastic !
I started a new game with your systems included in system.txt. One neibour systems is Wonder 1 and I am itching to get to some scaners ASAP to investigate what is hidden under all those storms ! Very entertaining indeed, adds more spice to dull standard SEIV systems.
