Could be blackholes.
Currently you don't get a notice about ships lost by poor navigation; it's a known issue to be fixed.
Edit: I checked the logs: Ship : 6769 belonging to player 21 has encountered a Blackhole and been snuffed
I lost a probe for seemingly no reason. I checked the player list and everyone appears to be at peace with me, so I don't know what happened either.
Blackholes don't appear as anything when you find one and lose a ship to it?
yeah, trom pointed blackholes out to me. i totally forgot they existed! it was prolly the same both times
heh.. You only get to see a blackhole if you can survive it. Otherwise, your ship just goes away. As Tsagoth pointed out we plan on adding an auto-mailing to the user to notify them they lost communication with the ship, but you'll get that message from aliens as well if your tech level is too low.
this is so exciting O_o
it'd be cool if you made the interior systems or desirable or something too - so they're more essential
do the aliens move around? if they don't, it'd be cool if there were some that patrolled or if they moved a space every few hours or something.
Currently there is a zone that we call the Omnipresent Aliens. If you enter that zone below tech level 5 your ship / fleet whatever is considered no match for the Aliens and you will be instantly destroyed. Otherwise you get to fly around and find out what happens for yourself. ;) Just remember there are over 6500 of them, and they were teching up a million years before your civ existed.
So... When you reach tech 5 in a tree your safe with any ship or your ship has to be tech 5?
I am confused with that as well. What needs to be level 5?Quote:
