A rogue star is just simply a star that passes thru the solar system.

You go to the Stars tab, and select any star that is whitish colored, and place it past 200AU then make its eccentricity close to 1. (like 0.9 or so)

I have some information on the date, according to this documentary, it will happen in 1994.  Thundarr the Barbarian TV cartoon intro (1980)

Sorry I couldn't resist!  :P
