Hay, the scrap planet is my idea!
_________________ I have suggested 7 Races, 5 Organizations, 3 locations, 3 materials, and 20 planets. View my profile interests for a full list.

Limit: Terraformers and Expanders are not able to increase the size or production of this planet, hence its name "Endless." Unique Ability: In order to make solid ground to construct buildings, you will need to use an artifact (Gas Solidifier) to do so. (You can have as many used on this planet but the artifact has to be found by disabling Uncommon-Rare NPCs or Missions) ------------ What do you think? These are the best ideas I've ever come up with!  I like the idea of chrome planet. That would be an awesome planet.

Phased World - Random stats, nothing special, but naturally cloaked as its matter is slightly out of phase with the rest of the universe. Bonus passive cloak.
Phantom World - Made with a mix of exotic matter - exotic matter requirement for structures is halved. Or, can be mined?
Cryo planetoid - small to tiny worlds with mineral wealth.
Sterile World - Extreme changes of hot and cold due to tight elliptical orbit of parent star, natural life of any known kind is impossible here without the aid of advanced technology. (Bonus defensive - such planets are overlooked as unlikely places to inhabit).
Heavy metal world - Abundance of natural heavy elements, more dense than metallic worlds, richer in mining resources, but minus population growth/limit.
Neutron world - Orbits a neutron star. Research abundance.
Dynamo World - Powerful natural magnetic fields whip and fluctuate resulting in abundant natural energy. Has high resource stats and bonus invasion defence. The field acts like a natural shield.
Molten world - virtually liquid rock and metal due to either radioactive decay or tidal friction forces. Highly unstable but rich in mineral wealth. Low population limit.
Ember World - The cooled core of a dead star, rich in metals, radioactive and thermally active.
Drifting/rogue world - Ejected from it's parent solar system/galaxy - received no light, ultra cold, artifact bonus. Potentially some passive cloak too?
Bio world - formed from vast clouds of naturally created organic matter. Population bonus, research and artifact bonuses.
Hollow planet - a once hot, swollen world, now cold, its core collapsed, the planet essentially is dead. Abundant artifact resources.
Just a few that crossed my mind.

What about possible modifiers to planets, as opposed to new types entirely? These would just add passive effects to the existing types of planets.
For example:
Mineral-Rich Moon: +2 base mineral production (NOT Availability bonus %, just production)
Ancient Ruins: +2 base artifact production
Research Outpost: +2 base research production
Hostile Fauna: Double costs to colonize or invade
Tidally Locked: -30% population, +50% mineral availability bonus
Bright Sun: +25% to planetary cloak, -25% population

Chrome planets? Laser planets?
Come on, serious suggestions, not flights of fancy.
How would new players respect a game that is absent of the laws of physics?!

The modifiers to planets sounds cool, they'd just need to figure out how to make that work with the system already in place. Some people might not like having random modifiers added to planets they have, especially if those modifiers have downsides.

Here are some serious suggestions: (Prepare for Mining Rush!)
White Dwarf
Rare
Size: Very Small - Small
About the size of Earth, but MUCH heavier, these stars are remains of a star that has just collapsed.
Mining: Very Rich-3x Mega Rich
Very dense, lots and lots of mining to do!
Artifact/Research: None
Nothing to find here.
Chances of Research to be Abundant.
----------
Brown Dwarf
Uncommon
Size: Small - Average
Too little mass to create nuclear fusion. Still dense but not as much as other dwarf stars.
Mining: Extremely Abundant - Very Rich
Dense enough for minerals to be created.
Artifact: Very Sparse - Sparse
There may have been artifacts after this "star" became a dwarf star...
Research: Average
There may be some research outbreaks leading to the discovery of the "star" before this dwarf star.
----------
Neutron Star
Very Rare
Size: Very Tiny - Tiny
Very dense but smaller. One teaspoon of the surface could be millions of tons!
Mining: Extremely Rich - 7x Mega Rich
More dense, more power, more minerals!
Artifact/Research: None
Nothing to find on a dead star.
Chances of Research to be Sparse.
----------
Yellow Dwarf
Common
Size: Average - Very Large
Our sun is a yellow dwarf. Let's go colonize it when we have the technology to sustain life on a star!
Mining: Average - Very Abundant
Our Sun, our minerals!
Artifact/Research: Sparse
Nothing to find here but scraps and data.
----------
Red Dwarf
Common
Size: Small
Small compared to our Sun but very common along Galaxies.
Mining/Artifact/Research: Average
...
Chances for mining to be Very Abundant.
Chances for artifact to be Abundant.
----------
Red Giant
Rare
Size: Very Large - Very Massive
Rare along galaxies, these stars are very huge compared to our sun, better yet, the Earth!
Mining: Rich - Ultra Rich
Artifact/Research: None
Chances of Research to be Sparse.
----------
Blue Giant
Rare
Size: Very Large - Very Massive
Sisters to the red giants, these have much more heat and energy, producing massive amounts of heat energy than the red giants.
Mining: Very Abundant - Extremely Rich
Artifact/Research: None
Chances of Research to be Average.
----------
Red SUPERGIANT
Extremely Rare
Size: Colossal - Mega Colossal
Massive compared to the giants, these are the largest type stars in the Universe.
Mining: Extremely Rich - 6x Mega Rich
Artifact/Research: None
Chances of Research to be Average.
Ability:
Supernova > Black Hole OR White Dwarf
Black Hole:
No production on all three.
1 week > Singularity Explosion > 5 Planets added to database > Random from Uncommon - Very Rare
----------
Double Star
Rare
Size of Star: Average | Size of double: Small
Two stars, one larger than the other. These are not binaries!
Mining/Artifact/Research: Rich
Two stars, more production.
----------
Binary Star
Extremely Rare
Size of both stars: Large
Two stars exactly in size, orbiting around each other...You might find Polaris!
Mining/Artifact/Research: Extremely Rich
Two stars, exactly alike, what else is new?
----------
Eclipse Binary
Mythical
Size for both: Large
Two stars, orbiting around each other so fast, it looks like it is one bright star.
Mining/Artifact/Research: Mega Rich
More rare, more of everything!
----------
Variable Stars
Very Rare
Size: Large
Stars that vary between Small and Massive.
Mining/Artifact/Research: Depends on the size of the star.
Star size will always change in size. Lasts 5 days before changing again.
---------
How are these ideas?

Stars have been stated before, by me.
I don't like your current idea because it isn't to scale.

how about a phasing planet of any type. would be rich or better in production, but randomly phases out, removing this production from players output. maybe would have higher chance to produce higher level artifacts?
