-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I'd prefer a more astronomically-realistic galaxy.

Maybe more stars with no planets,

Size down the solar system view of the planets quite a bit, however, feel free to size them up quite in the actual worldspace of the planet, they're too small as is.

The Spore galaxy has plenty of stars as is, Maxis could easily get away with replacing some of them with more rare star types and such without interfering unduly with game play, it would be cool to look at if all else scientific failed.

Red Giants- Yes. A stellar evolution life cycle would be nice as well.

Brown Dwarves- Yes.

Stars Inside nebulae- Yes, it would look awesome.

Stars without planet- Feel free to do it for show, increasing the density of stars, but putting many of them without planets would be fine, not too hard, and more realistic for sure.

Pulsars- Yes, and even put a few rare pulsars that have asteroid belts or even planets around them.

Binary Black holes- SPORE yes, but really, REALLY rare.

More Binary stars- Yes, one-star systems are in fact less common than Binary stars.

Ternary stars- Yes...Why not?

REALLY FREAKING HUGE stars- Not too many though.

Supernovae- Yes, but not too many. Perhaps make them blow up like once per game and destroy everything within 30 light years of them (adjusting their position to avoid blowing up home planets or important galactic features)

Novae- Yes, but make them reasonably rare.

White Dwarves- Yes please.

If Spore did that then it would at least get an A+ in scientific accuracy of stars I'd say.

(Archereon did that list) And another, much more detailed list:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1.) I want the full Galactic editor that Will Wright talked about should be in the expansion pack, you know, the one that can warp space-time/gravity and possibly create stars, nebulae, and black holes. It should also be able to make collisions between moons, planets, and stars possible. THAT WOULD BE SO FREAKING COOL!!!!!!
2.) Where are the triple star systems? Quadruple star systems?
3.) There should be amazing, rare celestial events and objects, such as a few supernovae, few hypernovae, a few supergiant stars, a few rare hypergiant stars, star births, etc.
4.) Not all stars should have planets. 20% of the stars shouldn't have planets.
5.) There should be more powerful weapons. I want a supernova bomb. It should be named Star Killer. After using your special ability 50 times (or something like that), you shall be able to unlock The Star Killer.
6.) There should be actual stars, such as Alpha Centauri, Sirius, Deneb, Rigel, Bellatrix, Betelgeuse, Canopus, Vega, and others.
7.) I think that there should be stellar evolution, like the yellow main sequence stars go through the red giant phase, or blue giants become blue supergiants.
8.) Another note: Where are those stars 100 times larger than the sun?
9.) We should be able to make our spaceships HUGE, as big as cities, like Star Wars.
10.) I think we should be able to fly to and between the void of stars with the arrow keys with unlimited range until you run out of energy.
11.) I would like the graphics to be like how they are in the 2005 GDCe demo. The planets and stars should look like the demo. (That is a huge thing that I'm wanting.)
12.) Some of the NPC races in tribal or civilization should wipe themselves out.
13.) There should be supernovae, and afterwards, they form neutron stars because there are too many black holes.
14.) One pair of binary neutron stars should collide every million years, creating gamma-ray bursts, wiping a 25- parsecs-radius clean of life. Or a hypernova could do the trick.
15.) The Galaxy should be a bit bigger like real life. Say 120,000 light-years across? (36,810 parsecs)
16.) You should be able to decide what kind of star you want your homestar to be, how many moons your homeworld has (1-3), perhaps how big your moon(s) are, and whether your homestar is a binary or not, and what color your sun(s) are.

I know I'm asking a lot, but I think it is a very cool list of things to improve Spore. What do you think of my ideas?
