What do you mean by "see it" and "does nothing"? Is see it in the HUD or that the buff is applied to it but nothing happens? Is "does nothing", that it doesn't apply the buff, the buff doesn't do anything or something third?

then maybe the last way out then is to have it spawn a frigate or something like it who then can apply the yhe ability

Try combining the phase gate ability with something that increases the phase travel speed to near infinite. Make sure whatever is broadcasting the ability leaves last though.

i have thought about it and i'm already on it - great minds think alike i guess

Read me!!

new idea. wormhole stabilizers. remove it as a research, and at it as a starbese upgrade, make it affect targets in range/GW and puff, now u can only do one way wormhole travel unless you are able to set up a new base on the other side, makes you think twize before traveling - and makes whats on the other side a hole lot more interesting!

since im still very rook to modding does anyone know if it can be done??
