Changes: Space Oddities

Revision as of 01:39, 3 August 2018

Space oddities are rare events that happen from time to time. They may be strange space monsters out for a snack, or just some natural phenomenon. Without sandbox or maybe quest intervention there can only be one active at any point in time.

Meteor Storm

A storm of meteors that destroy civilization in stars they impact. Can be shot down easily with any weapon. Can start in any cardinal direction, but once chosen all subsequent missiles of that sequence will come from the same direction.

Shoggoth

A creature that slowly and aimlessly traverses the galaxy. It is made up of multiple main body parts and some "nodes". Shoggoth raids stars like the ship type and shoots one gray laser per node. They also raid artifacts. Random start point on any star, except on hollow disc galaxies, in which it seems to start in the middle(perhaps out of date, or otherwise inaccurate). In addition, YOU can manually spawn Cultists by clicking on the Shoggoth and spawning them (I think you need sandbox though? (I do not know if this is exclusive for certajn versions of the game)).

Hunter

A neutral ship that hunts down all creature oddities. It ignores star lanes and leaves the galaxy once all creatures are killed. Always starts in the middle.

Elder Thing

Flying squid things. They are made up of the main body and two tentacles. They are very similar to carriers in that they carry Swarmlings. When flying headlong at a small or average sized ship (at least some oddities included like dragons and shoggoth nodes) tentacles have a solid chance to destroy the object hit. Always starts on the middle right side. Note: that he has an similar oddity called strangefish this oddity does appear but isn't available in the sandbox menu

Dragon

A snake-like organism. Starts as just a head, but periodically gains a body section until it hits the maximum of 8. The head has an AOE based missile that can destroy both stars and ships. Each segment has a kinetic missile with light damage. Spawns randomly on the rim of the galaxy.

Eater of Stars

Some kind of god jellyfish. It is completely invincible and it doesn't attack. They float around the galaxy marking 5 stars, and when they are done those stars, and some stars around them(much larger AOE than meteor), blow up. Always starts in the middle.

Puppet Mistress

A small hostile ship that flies towards ships and attaches to them. Now it controls this ship and the ship will periodically take 0.2 damage and on death Puppet Mistress leaves unscathed in search of another ship.

Seeper of Sloth

Green cloud object that consists of rotating plates. Kinda floats around, usually in a curved pattern up or down. Any star it touches, the owner empire(except neutral) start degenerating. Always starts on the right middle side.

Cecaelian Abomination

An kraken like monster with eight tentacles hulled in some kind of smoke which shoots an projectile (same AOE as a meteor) it Is one of the most powerful monsters it can take out an whole fleet hunters

always starts at an random place by edge of map

Yggdrasil

A tree like organism floating aroud the galaxy, ocationally entering the galaxy as well. Does not appear to do any damage to ships or stars.

Anneverworm

A dragon/worm-like creature that will spew missiles at stars, while also gaining tentacles behind it.When attacked will create Anneverworm eggs, which will grow into Larvae, then Chrysalis, and then an anneverworm.

Glubben

A harmless bug-like creature

Kabandha

A egg shaped organism that grows 4 legs[tentacles] that can shoot laserbeams at stars

Quieser

A ton of Saw-like things that destroy everything except Space Oddities.Come from welcoming the gift of calm

Wyvern

A upgraded dragon creature that grows rapidly with 1.0 hp per head/node.Can spew at stars and shoot missiles at ships.

Smatter Piece

A White Creature that will land on a chosen star and spawn more Smatter Pieces while also spawning Smatter Drones that will move like trade ships to other stars destroying what was already there.Some spawned Smatter Pieces will become red and attack other white Smatter pieces.Does not attack [except red ones].

Puppet Mistress

A small orange ship/oddity that will latch on to ships and will "mind control them".

Marauder

A Neutral ship/oddity that will shoot at other non neutral ships and stars.
