I spotted a red water world that turned out to be pitch black: https://forums.frontier.co.uk/showth...ht=dark+waters
And then it can happen something like it happened to you yesterday: a Blue planet that didn't sound like water, you went there and was a brownish high metal coloured blue by a type A.
Also definitly gas giants sounds different from class, and even their ring composition gives a different tone.
I would like to keep the guide easy and neat, so i doubt i'll insert information about gas giants, the interesting ones for this guide is if it bears life or not.
Regarding star colouring i would wait to have more data before changing the guide, but i'm definitly thinking to add a bunch of pictures. So everyone that spots a strange coloured planet FROM SYSTEM MAP that ends up not beeing what expected could please take a system map picture and post here.
