Obviously, the grind is meant to give the player a sense of pride, and accomplishment.
Is there nothing stopping me from littering the galaxy with t1 Outposts and trash installations to farm that 10k/week each?

But what happens if i don't have a mobile phone?
What do you mean, you don’t have a phone? (I’m about 99% sure you’re referencing that infamous line dropped at a certain mobile game reveal…)
Oblivion remaster just dropped, may be a bit on that one.
Peace and quiet...
So it turns out there is something stopping you. Time and boredom are a factor after all!
I dont think a system should pay out at all unless there is a major station in space or on a planet.
Also, I think the payouts should increase at an increasing rate the more assets you add to a system;
such that the same number of assets in two systems pays out much less than the same number
of assets in a single system.
The devs seem intent on creating a garbage future for this game and
pass experience with developers leads me to believe they will not change the system, now that
it has been implemented.
I'd also like a rule that says you must build systems with a ratio of 5:1 (teir 3 to teir 1). This would help with the space garbage also.
The proliferation of space garbage was a very foreseeable outcome of the rules and it is inexcusable that this game design was implemented.

That’s not exactly correct. I haven’t yet built a primary Coriolis (will soon-ish above a 6 slot planet which is the only landable in system with a single orbital build slot - the primary) but my systems with just a lone outpost have a score of 3 and another where I only have an Orbis (other things waiting to be built once I can) has a score of 15.
Not really, More just something slowing me down a bit while I wait for this beta to be actually finished. Somehow an unmodded bethesda title from 2006 feels more finished than this.
My first system built pays 400k credits/week (specifically, 410,042 Cr with a Score of 41.00), and I spent a lot less time hauling building materials than I would for 40 different outposts that each give 10k credits/week.
40 outposts is roughly 800k tons of materials needed for construction. A single Coriolis, an additional outpost, and the various buildings needed to build a profitable system is roughly 150k tons, maybe 200k if you really build things out. The real money comes from setting up an efficient system with a decent population and high stats (especially Wealth).

Payouts are specifically per structure. Not per any outcome of said structures. It's literally in the information frontier have provided us.
No, everyone keeps telling you credits are not the limiting factor. And that the game is not 100% about earning credits. And that the credit economy is full of holes and nonsense anyway.
Which I think you know anyway so I'm unsure why you suggested this line of argument in the first place.
Single system (Synuefe FT-W B48-2): 600K per week with a few Outposts, one Asteroid, one Coriolis and s few surface settlements. Dumping Outposts all over the place is not a winning strategy. That's just a waste of valuable real estate that someone else might want to build out fully/properly...
No one is doing this for the credits anyway. Its all about building out a system to call home and being able to name the stuff in your neighborhood. Vanity more than anything I guess...

If you want the credits, you'll get a lot more credits per ton if you build up one system.
