If the game galaxy is what we believe our real galaxy is like, then scoopable stars (Oh, Be A Fine Girl. Kiss Me as they taught me in physics class years ago
) should be in a minority compared to non-scoopable ones. My cosmology knowledge leaves a lot to be desired so I don't know how these scoopables are distributed throughout the galaxy.
Oh and the fuel rats: I am aware of them. Their existence was indeed one of the reasons why I bought ED in the first place, me being less than optimistic about online behavour from some players learning about the fuel rats changed my mind about this particular game. So not only are the rats awesome in my book, they are partially to blame I now spend hours each week on this game
