They don't work yet, and were supposed to have been removed. I guess he accidently re-added them during some other code tinkering. Theoretically, an 'intermittent' warp point would open and close on a regular or maybe irregular schedule, forcing you to change your plans occasionally. The 'ability required' could be put to several uses but the best would be to make ALL warp points require a special 'jump drive' to use them. You could then have 'system ships' without jump drives and 'star ships' with jump drives. Tada! System defense just got easier because attacking ships have to use up some of their space for jump drives.
