All they have been doing is opening a lane between their system and another isolated system.

Ah, interesting-- I had raised a concern about this possibility before, but we hadn't ever actually seen it happen. The experimentor script has some limits on the longest starlane it will open (100 uu), which is causing the trouble here. We don't want it just will-nilly opening up starlanes to far away systems, but I think we can get another good use out of that statistics parsing that Geoff and I worked so hard on a while back.
I''l take a look at scripting it up so that the Experimentor outpost will open up lanes to the 4 nearest systems, regardless of distance. Since we've been planning on allowing players to scale up their galaxy size this would probably become an even more important point.

Also consider using CanAddStarlanesTo ...
Re: Experimentors [build 2015-07-16.5195e60]
I got the basic thing to work, and committed it, but CanAddStarlanesTo didn't seem to like any of the 5 candidate systems, and in my test case either 3 or 4 of them should have been ok (one involved a lane crossing, another might maybe have required passing too close to another system).Geoff the Medio wrote:Also consider using CanAddStarlanesTo ...
I left the CanAddStarlanesTo condition there, simply commented out, in case you want to experiment with it yourself.

I think I've fixed the issues with CanAddStarlanesTo.Dilvish wrote:...CanAddStarlanesTo didn't seem to like any of the 5 candidate systems, and in my test case either 3 or 4 of them should have been ok
