It'd be cool to see these periodically dock and undock before jumping through witchspace on their way to their missions.
Know what would be cool? Capital Ship shipyard dock/undock

Yup, I was hoping for the same thing with all those bulk cargo ships and tankers, thought we would be seeing them jumping in and out of station instances, also being able to see them unloading cargo. The capital ship jump animations are a work of art, bit of shame we don't get to see it much.

I agree, be nice to see shuttles zooming around them and them docking / undocking. At the moment they sit there like a pretty ornament but feel pretty lifeless.
Yep, it would g a long way to making the galaxy seem alive if we actually saw NPCs going about their business being more than just mission targets.
In general the human side of the galaxy needs more, and more varied, activity going on in the background to bring it to life.
I understand why it's not been there from the beginning - we have a game where Star Citizen enthusiasts still only have a promise because FDev focused ruthlessly on getting out the minimum features necessary to make our working game.
But this isn't a Kickstarter project now - it's a successful, well-established game. And at this point a bit more chrome wouldn't go amiss.
Additions like megaships are a start, but they're kind of static. More activity would be welcome.
