Black Hole
In-Game Text
The gravity well caused by the Black Hole makes sensor readings of this sector unreliable. Starships in this sector may be destroyed if they drift too close to the event horizon.
Notes
Only ships with speed 1 can be destroyed by a black hole. Outposts and Starbases will not be destroyed if successfully completed.
The chance of destruction is dependent on the type of ship:
Ship Type | Chance |
---|---|
Scout | 95% |
Destroyer | 80% |
Cruiser | 15% |
Artillery | 10% |
Battleship | 5% |
Colony Ship | 50% |
Troop Transport | 70% |
Modding
The probability of destruction for each ship type can be found starting at 0x46BDE0 (AFC Forum Thread).
