Breaks the Galactic Code.

A useful tool to impress the Grox.

Cannot be used on save games without special modding.

Planets destroyed this way cannot be repaired. It will only be a floating ball of lava. Returning to the star system will cause the planet to completely disappear, as though it was never there.

Destroying twenty planets grants the Quietus Star Achievement. Obliterating Earth in the Sol System grants the Oh the Humanity! Achievement.

If used on the only planet in a star system, the spacecraft will simply fly over the star. The spacecraft cannot land, and will be repelled, as though the star is a gas giant. However, the player can zoom in close to that star.

This tool requires purchased ammunition.

When fired, the planet cannot be left until after the cut scene.

Warnings

Breaking the Galactic Code only makes local empires that are at a maximum of 10pc from the epicenter angry, possibly to the point where they will start a war. To want to “test” the weapon peacefully, do it far away from other empire in other part of the galaxy (beware of nearby empires; their relationship will decrease harshly).

Using It

Enter a planet be careful of your surroundings, and get within range of planet and… Badda Boom (as the description says) you will be put into a cut scene of the planet exploding and you will not be able to leave until the cut scene is over.

Tips

Breaking the Galactic Code only makes local empires that are at a maximum of 10pc from the epicenter angry, possibly to the point where they will start a war. To want to “test” the weapon peacefully, do it far away from other empire in other part of the galaxy (beware of nearby empires; their relationship will decrease harshly), or use it near the Grox. Or, if wishing to ally the Grox, perform it on a uncolonized planet near one of their systems for a +10 relationship boost. The player can do this a maximum of 5 times for a maximum boost of 50 relationship points.
