<!-----------STRUCTURE!!!

Others events necessary for strucrtural stuff

------------>

<text>You arrive in a sector not listed in any star charts. Strange crystalline ships dot the horizon. Your companion speaks, "Here we are, my home sector. It has been a long time since others have set foot here, I wonder how you will be received."</text>

<text>Continue...</text>

<event>

<text>"You have done as you promised and so shall I. The coordinates of my old ship have been forwarded to your navigation system."</text>

</event>

</choice>

</event>

<text>You arrive at the coordinates to find a massive Crystalline cruiser docked at a small repair station. You arrange for the ship to be sent back to the Federation base while you stock up and have the station repair your hull.</text>

<unlockShip id="8">The Crystalline ship is sent to the hangar. The ??? has been unlocked!</unlockShip>

</event>

</event>

<text>You arrive in an area bustling with crystalline ships and stations. A merchant quickly messages you, "You're from the outside, no? This is a great opportunity for both of us! Do you have anything you wish to sell or trade?"</text>

<text>"Ah! Hello aliens", says a rotund crystalline being on the vid screen. "I hoped I would run into one of you. I am a collector of alien artifacts and hoped you would have some equipment to barter!"</text>

<text>"Ah! Hello aliens," says a rotund crystalline being on the vid screen. "I hoped I would run into one of you. I am a collector of alien artifacts and hoped you would have some equipment to barter!"</text>

<text>You arrive at a trade depot and find a store that is willing to open communications with you. "I can't say I've traded with your kind before, but perhaps we could work out some sort of exchange."</text>

<text>You receive an incoming transmission, but it seems badly garbled. Eventually you realise it's advertising an equipment store. "Apologies," says the vendor, when you finally get him on the vid screen, "Long time since use universal translator no necessary. Please, buy, buy!"</text>

</textList>

</event>

<text>As soon as you arrive, all of the ships docked at a nearby station scatter and jump while the station itself uses some form of cloak technology to disappear. They mustn't like outsiders here...</text>

<text>No ships are in range, so you take the time to scan the area. It seems like every planet you've seen so far shows signs of highly developed habitation without overpopulation. They must have a very structured and well regulated society.</text>

<text>There appears to be no one living near this node, a rare sight in this highly developed sector.</text>

<text>You arrive near a civilian settlement. It looks like their homes, ships and stations all rely heavily on an intriguing crystalline material. You wonder how they are able to create so much of this substance, as yet undiscovered in the rest of the galaxy.</text>

<text>A few merchant ships pass nearby but they are either ignoring your hails or their computer isn't designed to work through the same frequencies...</text>

<text>A number of civilian ships seem to be evacuating a small colony. One ship messages you before jumping away, "Damn you aliens! This is why we closed that long-ranged beacon in the first place!"</text>

<!-----------ITEMS!!!

Events that give items

-------------->

<text>Odd radar pings from a huge, orbiting asteroid here reveal a Crystalline cache of some kind. A deep crater has been sealed over with a thick layer of crystal to keep whatever's inside safe - it'd take some serious firepower to break though.</text>

<text>Attempt to break through with the weapons you have.</text>

</choice>

<text>(Breach Missiles) Use a Breach Missile.</text>

<event>

<text>Your Breach warheads dislodge and shatter a massive shard of crystal, leaving your away team enough space to climb down and take a look.</text>

<item_modify>

<text>Investigate the cache.</text>

</choice>

</event>

</choice>

<text>(Crystal Crew Member) Have your Crystalline Being recalibrate your weapons.</text>

<text>(Crystal Crew) Have your Crystalline Being recalibrate your weapons.</text>

<event>

<text>Your Crystalline crew-member is able to adjust the detonation frequency of your weapons to resonate with this type of crystal, and the barrier gives little resistance.</text>

<text>On arriving at the base of the crater, your team discovers a long-forgotten weapons cache. Most of the equipment is out of action, but not all of it!</text>

<autoReward level="LOW">stuff</autoReward>

</event>

<event>

<text>Your away team is greeted at the crater by the owners of the cache, who are none too happy. You grab what you can and run back to the ship, but not before they teleport aboard!</text>

<autoReward level="LOW">stuff</autoReward>

</event>

<event>

<text>You send a crew-member down to check out the cache. The comm goes dead, and shortly thereafter massive gravity readings are detected on the asteroid. You must have triggered some kind of singularity booby trap! We've got to leave now before we're pulled in!</text>

<text>You push the impulse engines to their limit and are able to break out of the gravity well. Your crew-member, along with the stockpile, is reduced to the size of a tennis ball - but you're left in one piece.</text>

<text>You swoop into the heart of the distortion and pick up your crew member and the cargo. You then eject your FTL fuel and ignite it, sending a shock wave that thrusts your ship well beyond the event horizon of the singularity. That was close.</text>

<text>(Improved Teleporter) Beam your crew member back on board.</text>

</choice>

</event>

</eventList>

<text>You receive a signal from a private relay on a nearby inhabited planet. "Are you the alien ship they've been talking about?! You are! Please, I am a collector of alien artifacts, I'm sure what is scrap to you is priceless to me."</text>

<text>Offer 50 scrap.</text>

<event>

<text>"My word! Is this... a 25th century Rockman thrust stabilizer?! What do you want for it? Wait, I have a better proposal. I long to see the galaxy. I propose I come with you. What do you say?"</text>

<item_modify>

</item_modify>

<text>Accept.</text>

<event>

<text>"I shan't even gather my belongings - only permit me to leave my family a message." The Crystalline Being joins your crew.</text>

</event>

</choice>

<text>Request another payment.</text>

</choice>

</event>

</choice>

<event>

<text>Scrap is priceless no matter where you are in the galaxy. You hold onto your goods and prepare to jump.</text>

</event>

</choice>

</event>

<event>

<text>"Very well, a payment in kind. I have these explosives that emulate our race's innate ability. Perhaps that would interest you."</text>

</event>

<event>

<text>"Very well, a payment in kind. I have an extra ship weapon laying around here somewhere. Perhaps you could make use of it?"</text>

</event>

</eventList>

<!-----------HOSTILE!!!

Events that call up a fight for sure

------------>

</event>

<text>You arrive near a fleet of crystal ships, civilian or mercantile from the looks of them. You pause to scan one but they react immediately and send an escort to fight you off. Prepare to engage!</text>

<text>You arrive at the beacon and are immediately greeted by an automatic message or warning of some kind. The translator can't seem to discern its purpose but after a few short moments an alarm goes off and a hostile ship jumps in!</text>

<text>You receive a message, "Hah. It looks like another worthless alien-filled craft. Prepare to meet your maker!" Weapon locks detected.</text>

<text>A Crystalline ship messages you, "I've heard tales that our isolation has finally ended. As a warrior I must demand to test my skills against you!" Before you can respond they move in to attack.</text>

<text>You arrive in a busy sector. At first no one pays any mind to your alien ship but soon you're registering a number of scan signatures. You get the feeling you're not wanted here just seconds before registering enemy weapon locks!</text>

<text>You jump next to a node busy with traffic, but before long all nearby ships notice you and keep their distance, uncertain of your allegiance. After an awkward standoff, a military ship breaks away from the rest and charges you.</text>

<text>A barrage of rasps and clicks is broadcast over the comm; the universal translator understands little, but the words 'aliens', 'allowed' and 'no' come through quite clearly. You'll have to prove your right to be here in combat!</text>

<text>You receive a message, "Hah. It looks like another worthless alien-filled craft. Prepare to meet your maker!" Weapon locks detected.</text>

</textList>

<text>A large convoy of lumbering civilian ships appears to be passing through this region. You show no hostile intentions, but they are taking no chances, immediately sending their escort to attack!</text>

</event>

<text>Crystal shards fly past your ship as soon as you jump. You scan to find the assailant and discover a Crystalline ship carrying a number of humans in its cargo bay. It must be hunting the intruding ships!</text>

</event>

<text>As soon as you arrive, a Rebel ship jumps in after you; they must be really hot on your tail.</text>

</event>

<text>The Rebels must have sent their automated scouts to find you. One jumps in and immediately moves to attack.</text>

</event>

<!-----------NEUTRAL!!!

Events that could have a fight

------------>

<text>Crystal shards fly past the screen as soon as you arrive. Checking the scanners, it looks like a crystalline ship is engaged with a Rebel!</text>

<text>Crystal shards fly past the screen as soon as you arrive. Checking the scanners, it looks like a Crystalline ship is engaged with a Rebel!</text>

<text>Attack the Rebel.</text>

<event>

<text>You message the Crystalline ship your intentions and move in to intercept the Rebel ship.</text>

</event>

</choice>

<text>Attack the Crystalline ship.</text>

<event>

<text>You move in to intercept the Crystalline ship. As soon as the Rebel scans your ship it takes the opportunity to jump. You have the sneaking suspicion they will inform the fleet of your position, but that's the least of your current concerns.</text>

</event>

</choice>

<text>Ignore them.</text>

<event>

<text>With the two ships engaged in combat, you sneak by unnoticed.</text>

</event>

</choice>

</event>

<text>You discover a number of civilian ships fleeing the area. Shots are fired and you find the assailant; a Mantis ship is attacking one of the smaller ships!</text>

<text>Attack the Mantis.</text>

<event>

<text>You activate your impulse engines and fly between the Mantis and their prey, weapons charging. You appear to have their full attention.</text>

</event>

</choice>

<text>Ignore them.</text>

<event>

<text>You try to keep a low profile and quickly prepare to jump.</text>

</event>

</choice>

</event>

<text>A pirate ship jumps in right after you arrive at the beacon. It must have followed once the Long-Range Beacon was reactivated. It almost charges a small Crystalline transport ship, weapons armed.</text>

<text>Attack the pirate.</text>

<event>

<text>You chase down the pirate before it has a chance to engage the civilian ship. When it detects the real threat, it turns to face you.</text>

</event>

</choice>

<text>Ignore them.</text>

<event>

<text>You assume the Crystalline ship can handle itself. You have enough of your own problems.</text>

</event>

</choice>

</event>

<event>

<text>You contact the Crystalline ship to hear, "It seems you have brought war to our doorstep. I hope you're not too surprised that we don't welcome you with open arms. I should kill you myself..." They cut communications.</text>

</event>

<event>

<text>The Crystalline ship messages you, "You're the one that opened our sector to the outside, aren't you! Bastards, my home was just overrun by your 'Rebels'. Just leave us in peace!" They quickly jump away.</text>

</event>

<event>

<text>You contact the other ship, "Thank you for your assistance. It's glad to know that not all of you foreigners are so barbaric. Take this as a reward."</text>

<autoReward level="RANDOM">stuff</autoReward>

</event>

<event>

<text>The Crystalline ship hails you, "It's a good thing you came when you did. We appreciate the assistance. Please take this for your help."</text>

<autoReward level="RANDOM">stuff</autoReward>

</event>

<event>

<text>The Crystalline ship messages you, "Thank you. We were not prepared for the savagery with which you aliens battle. We will give you one of our weapons if you intend on assisting our kind in the future."</text>

</event>

</eventList>

<text>You're greeted by an unwelcome sight - a Rebel advance ship is laying down fire on a Crystalline vessel in the distance.</text>

<text>Engage the Rebel ship.</text>

<event>

<text>Before you can engage, the Crystalline ship scores a direct hit and obliterates the Rebel ship! They hail: "You, you are like these other aliens! You brought them here!" With that they turn their cannons on you!</text>

</event>

</choice>

<text>Leave them alone.</text>

<event>

<text>It's best to take advantage of the rare occasions when the Rebels aren't shooting at you. You prepare to jump.</text>

</event>

</choice>

</event>

<text>There appears to be a fight going on nearby. A Crystalline border guard is chasing a small Federation ship!</text>

<text>Save the Federation ship.</text>

<event>

<text>It doesn't look like the Fed ship can stand much more pressure. You fly in and intercept the Crystalline ship.</text>

</event>

</choice>

<text>Prepare to leave.</text>

<event>

<text>With the Federation ship distracting the guard, you are free to continue on your mission.</text>

</event>

</choice>

</event>

<event>

<text>"Thank you! We heard you jumped into an unknown sector and we figured it would be a safe enough place to hide from the Rebels. We were wrong!" They transfer some excess materials for your trouble.</text>

<autoReward level="RANDOM">stuff</autoReward>

</event>

<event>

<text>The ship looks battered and ready to break apart. You quickly move in to help rescue the survivors, but it looks like only one person made it. They offer to join your crew as thanks.</text>

<autoReward level="LOW">standard</autoReward>

</event>

</eventList>

<text>For a moment you assume it's a glitch, but no... you've found a Federation military ship! They hail you and, after some probing, reveal that they deserted the Federation fleet before stumbling into this sector while seeking refuge.</text>

<text>Offer supplies.</text>

<event>

<text> You send over some supplies to help them on their way and in return they upload their flight plan to your computer, allowing you to map the sector! "The Federation fleet's still standing - get there w
