Should I be concerned?
« on: April 03, 2017, 11:25:31 AM »

Hi!

I started a new game at the minimal level omg it's so limited! Anyway, two of the sol's JP's went right to alien races! go me. Immediately left the sent, sent diplo's, communication, all that jazz. Turns out we're friends now. yay. Anyway, some one (not me) is building jump gates in all the systems ive explored. The problem is, they're invisible and they're heading towards the 3rd alien system that's hostile.

i'm gonna die.

Invisible jump gates?
" Why is this godforsaken hellhole worth dying for? "
". . .  We know nothing about them, their language, their history or what they look like.  But we can assume this.  They stand for everything we don't stand for.  Also they told me you guys look like dorks. "

Building jump gates is what NPCs do.  If you had any plans on going turtle, well....

the jump gates arent invisible they just appear.

turtle, yes, at least until i have some system defense boats, which are now being built.

the new problem is that the two friendly alien races, one that i'm now allied with and the other is friendly, are currently at war with each other in the SOL system. 

need a way to tell them to leave!

yup, theyre blowing each other up and the wrecks are string to litter the SOL system:)

plenty of bodies for vivisec, er, never mind.

can the life pod crews be re-patriated?

i like the tourist monies theyre bringing in, but we cant get any sleep with the nuclear detonation in the near-atmosphere. Plus, there's a wreck in high orbit of Earth.

i mean, really!

Some tourists will always be loud, obnoxious, inconsiderate of local customs and they'll drop their trash wherever they please...
seems to be worth the annoyance in your case :)

Got the wreckscleaned up, polished up they make nice souvenirs for the tourists.....

Picked up a 3rdalien allied race, which has offended one of the other allies, so now they're in the new alien system blowing up anything they can reach. Finally sent in salvagers to clean up wrecks; i'll bill them later.

Time for you to start with three active enemy NPRs, "Detection in non player systems" set to "None", all three spoiler races active, and 400% difficulty.  ;)
