done it now

I've done it now, I pasted the Phase Jump Disruptor effects into the Avacado Scout Frigates ability which skips phase jump disruptors. I then changed those effects to be positive and removed the need for researching the ability.

I'm now experimenting to see if I can give an individual ship the ability to ignore phase lanes, basicly make up its own for itself.

Here's a working "Phase Gate Scout" ability I made from the old PhaseScouts mod, it works with 1.17 and Entrenchment:

What it does, is all visited planets are marked as phasegate points.

If you could make it a timed effect, and somehow project the effect to the target system, it could work, maybe you could make a novalith cannon-like projectile with the effect. So the entityBoolModifier "IsPhaseGateEndPoint" would apply to the local system, at the same time a very fast projectile would be fired to the target system (check BuffTechOrbitalCannon), and the projectile would make a "IsPhaseGateEndPoint" effect there, the ship could fly between the 2 systems, and then the effect would wear off.

Well, I'd be interested in such. It would make my Borg Cubes like really using their Transwarp engines

Edit: Ah, yes, this is exactly the same that EvilTesla wrote... and I thought I'm so smart
