I haven't needed laser upgrades, suit protection upgrades, etc. etc. so I was kinda wondering why. That's where I came across the "Stellar class" information and that a "1 jump" hyperdrive only ever takes you to what we will call "standard" systems.

It isn't until you upgrade *and* make a choice to go off path and specifically to other stellar class that (apparently) the planets get more rare and varied

I've found the environmental modifiers to your suit shield very useful. I switch it out each planet - decline Aug 17, 12:11 3
- The one I have might be the wrong kind. I had one you had to recharge - oblique Aug 17, 12:12 2
  - Oh, they are rechargeable but the higher level ones almost double your shield time. - decline Aug 17, 12:24 1
    - my planets so far have been pretty tame. I do have two water breathing upgrades which I plan to install now that I found a water planet -- nm - oblique Aug 17, 12:25
