What functionality is missing? What is unsatisfying with the current situation?

There is no option for technological disasters in the type list for Physical / Metaphysical Law. The only options are natural or metaphysical. But in Sci-fi world, a technological malfuntion or a mishap can create areas which would suffer effect which would qualify for this template.     Some clasical examples could be:
  • Forgotten nanomachines, which were programed to convert everything to paperclips in a specific area.
  • A terraforming system which is malfuctioning.
  • How does this feature request address the current situation?

    I sugest the creation of a new type for the Physical / Metaphysical Law, which would be Technological  

    What are other uses for this feature request?

    This could apply as well to system which are created to have a devastating effect in a an area, like for example, Radioactive rain caused by a nuclear fallout after a nuclear war.

    Thanks for submitting this feature request, and to all who considered and voted on it. Having discussed this with the team, we have declined this suggestion. The examples given here are not natural laws (such as magnetism, magic, gravity), but geographic areas exposed to technological effects. We suggest using a geography template (region) and detailing the effects under the Localised Phenomena prompt!
