Comets/meteors?

[magnusvejby]

Will there be any comets or meteors in Stellaris? Either you could get some comet sense, and build a base or something on a comet, or maybe it could be a big threat to your planet that a comet/meteor might fly into your planet.

Or maybe even you could get a tech that gives you the ability to revert the direction that the comet flies in, so it can hit enemy plantes.

Do you think something like this would be possible?

Here we go with the stability jokes again.

To Mag, anything is possible so long as they can script it in. You can probably script these events yourself after release. Might be actually easier than doing it for CK2.

Think you misunderstood

And yes i tried to fit a Comet Sighted joke in

But i mean comets as objects that flies around in space, that you can view on the map, they should work pretty much like a planet sometimes, and sometimes like a weapon. You should see it when it's about to fly into your planet etc. So it's not much of a event but something more in depth, and there should be 100 of them.

That would be like a space station that is sized up, can move, and is a stellar object like a moon instead of constructed. Possible with the Stellaris Clausewitz engine using mods? Maybe. Depends on how they swap out the graphics for space stations and spaceships. I like the concept of stellar constructions, moons that move like spaceships, due to the mobility element. Habitats like stable ring worlds are exciting and useful for population explosions, but offensive and force projection is more engaging to me.

I know in the Sol system they modeled in Stellaris, there's celestial objects like Ceres and Phobos around.

In one of their dev diaries they have shown a science ship event where the researcher found something on a asteroid and one (bad) result can make it crash into your colony. So I think they will exist as events but not as interactable objects (or only nodes to send your science ship to)
