Actually you only get it 99.9% of the time because strangely enough if you manage to destroy your empire before you get the event you won't end up getting the event for unknown and seemingly unrelated reasons.

I encountered a strange event once where I discovered the Sol system which at first looked completely ordinary, but upon surveying the Earth; I got a popup stating that the entire planet was actually just one big hologram which disappeared upon being scanned. That was it, nothing else happened and nothing popped up later. The Earth disappeared from the map and left the Moon orbiting nothing. I have never encountered this event again since.

I got the corrupted data event, which is what that is, over a relic world with dig site back when that could happen. knowing that the planet would disappear when the anomaly was scanned I completed the dig entirely and ten did the anomaly. Planet disappeared as usual, but I also realized that meant for close to five or six years my science team had either spent every day of their lives walking across a holographic projection that they then took part of back with them or they'd found the relic years ago and just been bilking the state for pay and taken a giant vacation on the taxpayer's dime.

Fun fact, the rarest event in Stellaris is actually a reference to hitchhikers guide to the galaxy, in which one of your scientists manages to get a towel, making them a very good explorer. I'm not sure if it is still in the game with the relatively recentish leader trait rework, but then again, I've only heard it talked about in a couple of videos, since it pretty much requires data mining and console use to spawn it in.

Probably wait it out; Stellaris has a history of having aliens doing weird alien stuff. Perhaps this is a test to see if we're "worthy?" Besides, these somewhat aloof introverts did mention that others tried to (presumably) attack them. While I'm sure our Titans would be able to handle any one of their ships, we simply do not have the capacity to field enough should these xenos prove to be technologically close to the Fallen Empires - a distinct possibility since they are apparently older than two Galactic Cycles.

The density of the stars around the supermassive black hole could come from the space that is bend by the black hole. Since mass has the effect to expand space (and time) around it. Looking towards a black hole could create the perception that stars are denser around it, while in reality the mass of the supermassive black hole has expanded the space around it. This effect increases with closer distance to the black hole, so what we expect to see is that stars around a black hole are positioned more dense around a black hole. U have the same effect when u put equidistant dots on a sheet, stretch it from the edges, and then put a weight in the middle so that it hangs through. u see the dots colluding together around the "black hole". Has nothing to do with stars being born.

@shadesmarerik4112

4 ай бұрын

btw the same effect is that stars around a black hole look younger. Since time around a black hole passes slower compared to us, far away from the black hole. This is a huge effect! Assuming Saggitarius A had existed at the big bang (which it probably had not, but this is just a simple estimate in scale of the time difference) a sun 10^4AU far away from SagA would have experienced a whopping 20% of the age of the universe time difference to us on earth. Thats why suns look so much younger and fresher when we look near SagA

Space alien gypsies event :D Took a lot of stuff and favors, and vanished into the abyss.

Since everyone is sharing their "rarest event" stories... Well, I don't think I've had many (that I can remember anyway) BUT one of my Custom Empires keeps popping up in 99% of my games....

"Yes, though I do plan on wearing yours' again one day" *They just look at me with a mix of disgust and horror* "But last time you turned us into evil warmongers that killed half the Galaxy!"

I hate to be pedantic, but at 0:20, it's pronounced A* (A Star). This is because it was identified as a very compact and non-thermal radio source, differentiating it from the brighter region it's within, which is actually called Sagittarius A. Sagittarius A* star is the black hole, Sagittarius A is a region of space known for it's radio wave emission.
