so I have now finally figured out how to actually make this work:

Your event needs to be in the events_Nebula.xml
and
Your event needs to start with the name NEBULA_ or STORM_

It needs not to be in the newEvents.xml nebula list - that is only used for filling in sectors.

Well that was annoying as hell
Here is the Stuff I made:

And stuff is always better than no stuff, right?

Yup, but the need to copy the entire event text again in the nebula file is just stupid. And even with that, i coudnt get it to work (even if time ago i did, dunno how..).

Besides, i have a seriously doubt. Must the events in the nebula_events.xml file be unique events with no subevents?? since maybe this is why i am getting nowhere trying to replicate one of my custom events in a nebula environmet.
