It takes every year access to HST file, i am not sure if the AH allows it.

Mutations are drastic ... probably hard to plan things ahead? You hardly know about neighbours what they are now and you never know what they (or you) are 5 years later. In average there happen 2.5 mutations during 50 years. AR and HE are entirely too different so these better put aside. Nod People dont evan know it at turn before it happens? That may mean like gating with cargo commands fail and illegal items building fails?

The game would require careful race design since the race needs to remain valid for all PRTs otherwise stars modifies the race drastically to make it valid.

IOW the risk to mutate into PP turns NAS into worthless point mine for every race and so it is questionable LRT to have. Maybe when races are first mutated then you add LSP LRT (if race had it not) and remove starts at 3 (if the race had it). These do not affect the race in no way after start but release rw points to make more mutations valid? On any case host should warn if someone submits a race that may become illegal with some mutation. Nod

Other option is to let the people to design 8 races (one for each PRT) between what they will mutate, but then the event of mutation will take serious tool already and also most clever race mixer (plus lucky at lottery) will probably win there?

Overall ... sounds an interesting idea but maybe ... such a roulette does it bit too depending on luck?
