It has less to do with a lack of bases, it has to do with a lack of decoration. Biomes, if you will. The infocards of the planets and the sun are generic. The asteroid fields are generic. The placement of the jump holes is generic. Hell, I wouldn't mind sending in a less generic and more arcade-ish version of the system if it, for once, would get any feedback other than ignorance (like the Uncharteds I made - after getting asked to do some - or the Thuringia starsphere I sent in). We have loads of solars that can be used creatively. But Laptev has four set rocks in the ice field and a pilgrim liner at the only thing that makes the system unique: the very damn pretty sun.
I should mention that there are plans for an official story event where the blackbox logs of the Dallman can be recovered. It didn't go live with the system because we didn't get all of the juicy background lore written in time.
If you have suggestions for stuff that could be added to the system without a complete redesign, yes, I am open to it.
Your Thuringia starsphere was rejected due to texture stretching, which was deemed less desirable than the current tiling. Re: your uncharteds, those I know less about, and I don't want to comment on stuff I don't know about.
