Welcome aboard @Azzamann79. 
I would love to live in Yoda’s hut. ‘So rustic and cozy!’

Very rare. I encountered my second one yesterday.

I really miss the days when pirates would randomly swoop in and attack trading posts. It was rare, but spectacular.
No doubt NMS has improved mightily over the years. But some really good stuff has also been lost.

Agreed. Some of those lost features were cool fun.
I still wish they hadn’t removed the getting-shot-down feature from the first days of release.
I got to experience that & it was a serious challenge to get my drowned ship back up & flying again in those days.

I had completely forgot about that!
That was a big selling point to me back then. I though it was cool that you could be shot down and then go on a small adventure to fix your ship and get back up and running again.
Sure, it wasn’t very exciting and was bare-bones, and on top of that it was a rare occasion because its not at all difficult to stay alive, but it did add some immersion for me. That should have been fleshed out, imo. Maybe even add it as part of the main story, where you get shot down by a hoard of sentinel drones(a scripted event) because your getting too close to uncovering the truth and you have to fix your ship to continue.
Yep… now i miss the thing i didn’t even notice had left.

My fledgling little base so far

So, I get sent to the worst planet ever for my daily mission which is to help a stranded pilot. The mission that requires fighting off hordes of corrupted sentinel.
Even on a regular planetary scanning mission, this planet would be a challenge.
First, I have to find the pilot then hope I can find a place to land
Then I have to search for needed parts.
In the dark,
During the day
Slipping and falling among gigantic seaweed on the steepest of slopes, it is easy to lose your bearing.
In storms
And in an aggressive sentinel environment
The whole experience finally caught up with me and over came me. Then I was reminded of this:
“We think everything in this universe has to conform to our paradigm of what makes sense.” - Robert Buettner, Overkill
By the time I found my grave, I was already under attack again.
Mission Abandoned
The End of the World
Even this pirate who wanted to peddle his wares could not find a place to land.

Main base for my Frontiers play through. I call it Stone Pen because I had some weird idea about keeping animals in here:
I dunno why, but I have thought “that would make a neat feature to build a base in” every time I have seen these weird column things. Now I have done it and…yeah, I can say “I did that.” It is cool having the high top to build a solar farm on since it gets full day sun, but otherwise it’s not terribly useful. Obviously can’t put a landing pad in there, and it is freakin’ dark in there all the time so I’m not actually doing anything with the inside. Presented some interesting engineering challenges though so no regrets.

Welcome aboard the hype-train, 
@Timsup2nothin !
Yeah, there’s been a long-running wish for zoos, livestock and fauna kept in pens. After the companions update, it is very possible that HG may someday get around to enabling enclosed fauna habitat. Maybe?
Of course, another use for such a rocky enclosure could be a tournament area of sorts. Or just cap it off with a roof and call it free walls, decorating the interior and boring holes for an entrance and windows.

Welcome to the forum…we all play nice here!
I once built a Pirate Tavern themed base in one of those cylindrical rock formations. It was an extremely dangerous radioactive planet filled with savage beasts.
There was a landing pad suspended as low as possible to enable landing, with a series of narrow stairs leading down to the timber structure. There was even a secret escape tunnel in behind crates in the basement.
Later, I upgraded the dangerous staircases to SR teleporters.
Made a good base for harvesting Storm Crystals but the wildlife was just too annoying & I eventually deleted this base & moved on.
