History
Some ships in a certain science-fiction universe have the ability to control gravity. They use this ability to create tiny black holes in front of incoming weapons fire, trapping it inside the singualarity and keeping it away from the ships themselves. While creating a hit event that prevents a ship from taking damage isn't possible (SHP file editing is required for that sort of invincibility) making something that looks black hole-like is quite possible. You'll notice there is only one screenshot instead of the usual three or four. That is because it is a picture of a black hole. It's black, and it's a hole; there's not much more to see. Hopefully those of you wishing for gravitational lensing effects will be able to deal with the disappointment.
Instructions
Unzip blackhole.zip into your Homeworld directory. Replace the SmallEnergycannon hit events in r1.script with the following:
setHitEvent R1,GS_SmallEnergyCannon,HitBlackHole.ebg setHitEvent R1,GS_SmallEnergyCannon,HitBlackHole.ebg setHitEvent R1,GS_SmallEnergyCannon,HitBlackHole.ebg setHitEvent R1,GS_SmallEnergyCannon,HitBlackHole.ebg
