BurstarI personally prefer long hair. At least long enough that you can gently pull on it when, erm, 'appropriate'.
It's still long enough for that.
Not that I mean this as an invitation to pull...

MeowersSo grow long hair then, why not.
Well, because then I'd never get any work done
In all seriousness, in my wild youth I tried growing long hair because rockstars were cool at the time. Wouldn't grow once barely reaching shoulder length no matter what I did. I wish I had a picture of that scrawny kid in a leather jacket that weighed almost as much as he did
The long hair options for male avatars were at best disappointing and shorter than even shoulder length IIRC otherwise I just might!

Conclusion: it is only a typo. It says 2,310 million years, while it should be 2.310 million years.
No.
If this star is only 2 million years old, there would be not enough time required for formation of these planets.
Your premise is flawed. The star/system could very well be 2+ billion years old. There's no reason it couldn't have existed prior to the formation of the nursery. It could also be travelling at speeds much faster than the surrounding stellar phenomenon. Just passing through so to speak.

SakashiroI'm glad FDev has started fixing the hair colors in Odyssey. On my codex photo I'm still grey, but at least the realtime rendered hair is now black again.
Literally unplayable!

Thanks for reply.
This 2+ billion yrs refers to the whole cluster, not only this star. And cluster cannot be older than nebula it been born within.
This should look more like that (I could not find protostar of respective colour, but it will do):
Note there are only gas giants and icy bodies (not shown on the screenshit) which is ok, because their period of formation is much shorter than metal and rocky bodies.
Made a typo in my post. It refers to the brown dwarf again

Are you saying every star in the nebula is 2+ billion years old?

Are you saying every star in the nebula is 2+ billion years old?
Yeah, just checked. It appears that refers to the whole nebula, not only this cluster.

SakashiroCQC appears to be dead. I wanted to play a little but couldn't find a match.
It's never really alive imo. At best on the weekends you'll get 4 per team occasionally with drop outs that aren't replaced being a regular problem. I suspect ED:O is causing problems here too. Would not be surprised if performance or server issues have ruined that as well

Hmmm. Well the Stellar Forge is procedurally generated for the most part, with some handcrafted exceptions ofc. Looks like this nebula didn't get the personal touch I guess. You'll just have to handwave it away by saying more recent research allowed by direct proximal measurements made 'improvements' to our 'inaccurate' data.
edit: you could put a ticket in and maybe they'll change in in a couple years
