Maybe this was mentioned a long time ago somewhere, but it is my only wish. I don't want any of the previous ones I mentioned. If I get this one, I will be the happiest camper in the whole galaxy.

-Take out the requirement that in order to create a constructed planet (i.e a sphereworld) there must be a star present, or at least make it moddable that one needs to be there or not.

Why?

I really don't care about building sphereworlds on anything but a star, but this would allow other designs, smaller designs, to be built as bases anywhere in the system.

Think about it folks. This one small change solves the problem, from a certain point of view, of having facility abilites on vehicles. Not on ships obviously, but on bases, which I think would be the only logical place for say an intel facility.

Yes, this doesn't help the AI, but what mod does really, 'cept the TDM and maybe one or two others.

You'd have to colonize these planet-bases, and their only weapons capabilities would come from WPs, but I sort of like the idea of having to invest population in a base. And the weapons capabilities of such a base could change with the weather, not needing to retrofit.

Dear Santa,
