    I am 30 hours in and can’t begin to imagine what I would ever want an outpost for. It isn’t like resources are expensive.

      I’ve been searching for a nice planet with titanium deposits and adhesive dropping plants to farm - by the time I find it I probably won’t need it, and I definitely could’ve grinded out the mats waiting for merchants to restock. I do have two outposts that are just resource mines (I think its tantulum for one and titanium or something for the other). The idea is very intriguing as it seems like I could make an actual factory - but then there’s really no point other than to do it just because.

      I would suggest building an outpost just to have a ship builder with all the merchants (it doesn’t have the special upgrades, though.)

        Yea this is another aspect of the game I’m not really interested in but I recognize that’s just me. I just buy frames I like and then upgrade components.
