Commodore.. Your knowledge of FL's mechanics worries me..
[rant]
The light of one system does not influence the light of another. No matter the range of the light, it will not show in another system. This is shown when you travel 10,000K from the sun and never ever reach a new system.. You just end up 10,000K away and hope you have mines to kill yourself with.
The only things affecting a system is what is in that system. A light source in one does not extend to the next. This is because not every system is composed in the same .ini file. Since each system is located in a seperate file, and the files do not link to each other in any way except in lines of code with the jump holes/gates and the zones for the holes and gates, they cannot influence each other. For a file to influence another would require one to be linked to the other or both to be linked with lines of code. That code would also define the characteristics of how they are affecting each other. These codes do not exist in the system .ini files, nor is there another file linking them in such a way. Therefor the ability for one system to affect the lightsource of another is impossible until/unless we could unlock the hardcoded information of the game, write new codes that allow lightsources to be added a code that will have them effect another system in some way. Have fun cracking the hardcodes..

Oho. My first time going from Unknown to Gamma was back in... 4.78 I think? So damn freaky.
I am a long-absent Supreme Commander, Executive Commander, Grand Admiral, Fleet Admiral, and Captain in the mighty Hellfire Legion. I have returned, and am on an urgent mission from Drake Thastus to return the Legion to its former glory, and to claim the galaxy for its own. Only then will I be able to rest.
RP Story (Still deciding whether or not to finish)
uite recently, short after the release of the final 4.83, I had a weird adventure in Chugoku.
The jumphole to Sigma 13 was nowhere to be found. I exited and tried finding it bu jumping in from S 13. So I did , found the hole and on the other side... The jumphole in Chugoku was invisible for scenners and maps. Appeared visually as object unknown.
Speaking about unknown objects, whats that Zoner satilite thingy in Omicron Delta when you click on it it says unknown object. Nomads seem to be attracted to it. I blew it up though.
