Oceanics are kinda weird as they can either come from Icy (research/arti) or Barren (Mining) so they probably can get hurt pretty badly with RNG on these random buffs

when you say we get a notification for a chance to analyse, will we have infinite time or do we have to move fast? and is it possible to stack the same permanent bonus on a planet (ie 2 large moons) ?

Crap! This system really needs glasses...I got rich minerals on a Metallic that is an ER research

Whats the Mining resource on the planet, usually metallics have just as good mining as they do research?

One step less. Good thing it is a Massive.

I am thinking for both the random events (colonize + random time) and the RT , not just planet type but actual stats. ie, high production type should be the driver in those cases, such as made planets. I do see that Oceans get the obvious "Undersea" on colonize, even though it's RP on an AP focus planet it still makes sense on an ocean most of the time. I think it's on the right track.

Just got lost undersea archives on my terra planet, +30% to research for a week, shame its only an ex.abundant research planet though, compared to mega rich artifacts.

Not sure if this is another error, or not, but figured i'd post to find out. Obviously a Terra does have oceans, so undersea archives isn't too surprising really, its just i figured that perhaps events would be more favorable to the best resource on a planet.

Is it equal chance per player or equal chance per planet or something in between?

I've had one random event (and no analyzable events) so far... and it happened roughly 15 minutes after last night's ship upkeep timer hit 0
I'll be watching future events to see when they hit

Always has happened while online for me. 2 random events, 1 colonize. 2x Flux Storm, 1 Stealth Field. Colonize was a flux storm. It sucks I've had 3 cloak buffs when I don't cloak my planets...

well of course a colonize event will happen when you're online...

Lol.

Well duh. But the random events were also while online.

Icy planets can be very rich in research too, i think when colonizing a planet/invading one the effect should be driven from the best resource, and if its a random effect or using the Reality Transfuser or a random event, it should be driven of the current production you are getting the most from. ex a VM ext rich mining vb artifact and ext rich research, if you had structures on research rather then mining the event would be a research buff.
