Deuteros part 5: C is for Centauri
It's time to capture another solar system and hold on to it! The P.T.L. makes this possible. This episode also features the triumphant return of the construction crew - now flying starships, and it only takes 3 of them to carry the necessary OF Frames, artisans, and materials to build one MTX.
There are two random events this time. The first one is 10000T of free carbon. Since I'm not remotely short of carbon, and never will be, this one is useless. The second one is that Centauri itself starts behaving oddly, emitting the wrong kind of light and causing all the factories in the system to shut down. This is really obnoxious, since it means that all the effort spent capturing Centauri and getting it working properly is wasted... at least, until the star goes back to normal.
