Wormhole navigation

Well, there's really not a death penalty anywhere in Spore. It would at the least make sense that if your ship gets destroyed, the new one has an empty cargo hold, not all the stuff the previous ship had.

Tribal and Civ both have failure scenarios. But yeah, the game is easycakepie.

Yea, 1/5 does sound about right -- makes it almost impossible to find a track through without running into a Grox system. And it makes fast retreats really difficult, even if you find a wormhole that plops you in pretty close. I even found one wormhole exit that was pretty close to the core, but I couldn't reach a single nearby star from it, even with a I-5 drive. They were all just a little bit beyond the green.
The problem is, the game limits the range when you are very near to the galactic core by a fixed value of 3pc, rather than related to the Interstellar Drive your ship has got. You can use any of the galactic core travel limit mods to get there easily avoiding most of the Grox.

Yea, but using a mod to avoid the travel limit would make it TOO easy, I think, at least for me -- some of the fun is figuring out how to do it, either by clearing a path yourself, or doing a lot of wormhole explorations until you find the right combination that gets you as close as possible.

Yea, but don't you just go back to the beginning of the stage, or maybe to your last save? I've seen a stalemate in Civ, where you can't win at all, but never in Tribal.

You were expecting them to nuke you back to the cell stage?
