A star is the term given to an spherical astronomical object. They often consist of plasma held together through a large pocket of gravity, forming the object. Star are often located at the centre of Star Systems, where other astronomical objects such as planets orbit them.

Generation

Main page: Galaxy Generation

Stars populate the Milky Way and outer space within a cubic area of 1 lightyear. Those that populate within 200 LY of the Sol System utilise the ESA's Gaia catalogues, which per Stars within 2000 ly of Earth are generated using the Gia Database. This data is stored and retrieved on a SQL database, which determines the set number of stars that generate within the area of space. However, outside of this, stars generate on a seed system, with different characteristics and locations for each player's game.

In future versions, a star system designer tool is planned to feature, allowing players to create their own star systems.
