What we'd need to know is what you are "adding" to your various stations so that we can see about working it all in
The descriptions.plist will reveal all of the flavour text that has been incorporated. Even if I don't relaease in the near future then I can share that with you.

Sounds super, if you are willing to let ML & I sneak a peek!

It also means that I get given a leg up in creating the gubbins for the various species... more ideas always welcome!

Dear Digibetan, don't despair, delay due developer diligence...

It's currently #2 on my work list. #1 requires quite a bit of maths, which isn't a problem but I've just got to do the necessary mental juggling first.

Again, there are more ideas brewing for this but then they don't all need to make it into v.1.0 (or even v 0.1 if I decide that be the more accurate nomenclature).

If there isn't a release of this by the end of the year then the fabled descriptions list will be on its way to you.

As promised, the script will be released as part of a very basic oxp.

The relevant thread (and oxz) will bear the perhaps more representative title of 'Alien Systems OXZ'.
