THE PIT (Fortuna Discussion Topic)

@Artem1s
Yep. Not every planet is automatically on the notails "Hit it with a stick" rating. Sometimes you can find lone-e's on "Undiscovered" planets. This means the notail have already found it (and may have even claimed it) and are just minorly scouting it out.

What's cool (Plot wise not like, in general, in fact it's horrible) lone-e's normally represent themselves as an alien who accidentally crash landed on the planet and is stuck there forever because "no one knows I'm suppose to be here" to the locals to garner pity and interest.

Saying your species which is much more high tech than they are know you're on this planet and might be coming back to you would alarm savvy people so acting like you're just a dumb everyday dude who went where they weren't suppose to makes it seem less deadly.

Sadly it's actually a very bad idea to kill a Lone-E as if the Lone-E fails to report in at their required time the planet gets flagged as possibly hostile and more notails get sent in to check what happened to the person they sent out which as you can guess can lead to total take over.

Lone-E classes are very peaceful as long as not attacked and are very interested into intergrating themselves with the cultures of other people and traveling the whole planet.

If the planet doesn't have anything the notails want Lone-Es can actually be world changing to the planet as the Lone-E will likely start asking for certain tech, giving it to the species and teaching them how to use it which can greatly improve the lives of everyone on the planet. (Ex: Antibiotics)

So that's pretty neat, and if that species ever gets to space the notail will wink and go "Hey you should join our side, remember when we checked out your planet to see if we should kill everyone on it for supplies gave you that thing that improved the lives of billions on your planet? even though that should just be common courtesy?" Yeah.

You know, except for the part that every planet checked by a Lone-E that does have supplies they want will be mauled as much as possible which sure is nice.

I'll swap it to partial app opening until species apps reopen in 2~3+ months.
