Planets

Although Planets do technically exist, there's nothing on the surface - or for that matter, any surface at all.

In the future, the Surface will be similar to many other "higher-level" sandbox games in that it will be smooth.

There will be different types of fairly realistic planet environments.


 * Mars-like planets with global, uniform biomes
 * Earth-like planets with multiple biomes and vegetation

On the Surface, civilization will vary.


 * Many planets will be uninhabited (like SE)
 * Some will have small colony bases and industrial buildings (like NMS)
 * A few will have large cities and a significant economic presence (like Star Wars)
