Upon salvaging the "wreck" of a Star Swarm warrior I got this, besides some minerals:

"A number of strange alien larvae were discovered during the salvage operation. They appeared to be feeding on the wreckage and growing rapidly. All the larvae were terminated."

Not Auora, but SA 7. 02:

I was looking at a system, checked a planet's moon, and read: environemet: Green, Resources: Cheese.  rubbed my eyes, closed system, opened it again, it was gone.  But I really should have taken a screenshot, just to proove it was there.

I think I remember this one!!  I don't remember if I saw it myself, or if I read someone else's account (maybe even yours) on the old yahoo board , but this rings a big bell.

Reminds me of the part in the Rigellian Diaries where the empire discovers Earth - I really enjoyed the humor in those segments.

Nice! ;D

But that apostrophe on the homeworld's name (Hell's Gates) will probably bring you errors.

That sucked balls... Had something like 1000 Infrastructure and forgot to change the 1000 bit... and clicked add pdc. 1000 individual PDC construction orders.


And then had to click "remove" 1000 times....    >:)

(Oh maaaaaan - the new board doesn't have a BEG emoticon....)

LOL - I hadn't noticed that one, but Steve puts those little easter eggs in every now and then.  IIRC, there used to be a "clear all" button on the construction queue - when you'd mouse over it, it would say something about being there so Erik could delete the 1000 individual PDC build orders that he'd created (which is what led to the request for the button....)

so, looking though the filter events by type list, I noticed one, "It's life, Jim" anyone get any events of this type, and what were they, also post your own unusual events/event types, and ask about ones you see here
