One system ||(only one, no more)|| in your galaxy should have a Hyper jump relay that goes to Sol

A abondoned system with asteroids, planets but no star, only a iron core
Maybe there could a place in the asteroid belt where there are some heavily damaged hyper drives from monolith Monolith
Possibly several broken stations around Terra ||(aka earth (if it even exists anymore))||
And obviously no ships would be travelling but there could be some cabal Cabal stuff

Would be pretty cool

Edit: The sol system should not show on the galaxy map

I think many of the inner planets would have been consumed by the sun when it exploded

#

Cool idea

daring basin
#

Having one entirely desolate system would be super cool. Just nothing there, no asteroids, stations, beacons. Only jump relays

mortal hull
#

I think the gas giants at least would survive

#

Not an astronomer though

#

can it have a few damaged cabal defense platforms

daring basin
#

I think an FTL-induced supernova would not leave much of anything left

#

Sol could make a cool endgame destination.

round shore
#

the damage would be from a lack of maintenance

daring basin
#

I think it'd be really suspicious to deploy a station after the event but whatever

ok ok

#

if this does become thing, a special ambient track for this system would be awesome

#

Sol would definitely be cool, maybe have it controlled by no favtions and have it as a dedicated place for no conflict, though only places that would be left really are the outer planets, maybe could have Jupiter become a red/brown dwarf and have one of its moons (Europa I think) as a ocean world for some flavor

The monolith structure in which FTL technology was discovered probably would have survived...

unreal tundra
#

a star blowing up?

#

Sol, that would have expanded past earth

willow vale
#

Yeah, but if you have FTL technology, you probably have decent security

#

Also it's got plot armor.

lore that i dont know

ooo

ikr

#

and this is why we dont like the Cabal

I think this is a fantastic opportunity. You get used to see all these systems inhabited and blooming with life and technology and then you enter a space with only emptyness and destruction only to sudden realize it's ours system, with our very own home planet which is not even there anymore. Could be a minor detail that can cause you to feel some emotions, I certainly would feel distressed.

Think Sol could go one of two ways, a Sanctuary protected by all faction in a mutual understanding to preserve the system
Or a battleground where maybe mainly Cabal and Imperium fight over it, would make most sense to me for those two as Cabal literally warship Sol, and thus see it as a holy sight, and the Imperium being the successors of the Terran Union

#

dont really see the Monolith having a reason to fight over it as id imagine any old stations of theirs would be mostly ruined, say except for any in the outer system

#

This could make for a hidden codex entry as well , and increase the lore

#

Sol Aftermath , or life in sol before the cabal accidentally made the sun go boom

finite pawn
#

Cabal-made space "Gravestones" or some sort of thing to "mourn" the sun is gon?

#

When, the Sol system has been destroyed.

#

Cabal blew it up

#

Read the cabal lore

This would be some cool environmental story telling. I like it

Secrets and Easter eggs? I think yes

Nice to see how this is finally getting the attention it deserves!

99% of the time they not only 100% vaporize their solar system, they destroy entire stellar neighborhoods as well.

#

Supernovas are nothing to mess with.

tall token
#

I know i just talked about the system which the star decided to go boom

unreal tundra
#

The sun would only explode Into a planetary nova and become a white dwarf

dusk flicker
#

Oh! I thought you guys were talking about actual supernovas that blue and white giants do when their lifespan comes to an end.

#

Yeah. Yellow dwarfs just expand and turn into red giants when they are at the brink of death, engulfing the inner planets in the process. Then they just decay and turn into nebulae, leaving a white dwarf behind, which is an almost immortal glowing sphere size of a regular planet.

#

yes

#

true science

dusk flicker
#

But Cabal's lore says that they accidentally quote Blew their planet up. Not killed it, but blew it up.

#

Maybe they caused a supernova to occur on a yellow dwarf by some mysterious experiments?

#

Who knows thonkers.

still forum
#

and, a red giant is a "explosion" i guess

unreal tundra
#

I feel like "blew up the planet" is more flavor text as its really hard to do that

mortal hull
#

Well they did it somehow

tall token
#

But. What if the sun didn't explode but rather a red dwarf came thrown earth out of orbit and earth just went near another star system that exploded that would be cool

dusk flicker
#

How judgmental.

#

A bit late to this discussion but a desolate system like this would be fantastic

#

it would definitely add to the exploration aspect of the game

i think music shouldn't play there, just a deafening silence

mhm

#

Especially it being the sol system is a nice touch

We dont want it to be too friendly.
Add a relentless swarm of drones all around the system

lol

#

yeah

unreal tundra
#

Honestly I think having music or a simple one that doesn't over power the normal sound effects of your ship would be best, make the system feel more dead

hidden plinth
#

easy

#

ambience instead of music

unreal tundra
#

Or yea ambience

#

That's the word

The reason : sol system

#

Isn't the sun going to be a nebulae though

#

The whole system would be enveloped in it

unreal tundra
#

Depends what path Walt takes it but most likely yea

But I guess you have a point.

not only is it nice eerie ambience but i think it would also just be a nice throwback for us OG's
