Title: Hiding a System from a player
Post by: TMaekler on March 08, 2016, 03:00:41 PM: Was trying to create a new system with an alien race in it. Have done it in the System Screen. But since I have no spacemaster race in that game I have created it with one of the selected fractions. Now this system is known to them which it should not be. Any way to hide it from them?

Careful with that, though. I don't recall what the tooltip says, and I haven't used it.

There is still another rank no one has yet reached. I think Steve is the closest. Followed by either myself or John. Not sure who is second. :)

Then change to playing them and do all your NPR creation stuff there, when you switch back to your main playing race you will have no knowledge of the NPR system.
