thats funny... I'm actually working on something like that... I am in the works of a "gatekeeper" mod. This mod uses the pink heavenly unknown nomad world as a source system for a multitude of jump gates leading to different bases and planets around the univers. The gates also include a gate to the Unknown system with Planet Gammu and Planet Primus as well as another gate to Omicron Major (the outside of the dyson's sphere). I also modified the "unknown planet" in omicron major to be dockable. Each planet (gammu, primus and the "Unknown Planet" which I called Oxyllic Terra Minor) has commodities that you cannot buy or loot anywhere in the entire universe. Also, since these are essentially alien planets, nomad equipment is also for sale... this includes the weapons and nomad fighter ship. You can purchase the Nomad power cells, alien artifacts and alien organisms at any of the three. Yet the special commodities are sold uniquely at a specific base. There is about a dozen special commodities available at each planet.
As far as the storyline characters go? Well, after I made the planet dockable and all the alterations listed above, I still had no life on the planet other than my own. With soundspawns help I was able to find the file and add characters. I figured I'd try to make them nomad's, but after that didn't work I decided it'd be cool to have ozu, juni, jacobi, orillion, king etc... all hanging out in the same base. After I got that set up, I got bored of not having anything for them to say... almost no purpose. Therefore I kept going and made some new info points that they sell you. You can buy info on Planet's Gammu, Primus and Toledo. I'm going to add the secret unknown jump hole locations here as well. The other info they sell you has a high price tag, but will give you the coordinates of nearly EVERYTHING in the New York System. My next mission is to get them to assign the random freelancer missions.
