Being able to land on the moon and mars with some real mapping would be cool.
Moon landing

Oh wow. I bet FD have never thought of that.
You do realise that Mars is now an Earthlike planet?
How many of those can we land on now?
And the Moon may as well be too, as it's mostly covered in city.

Thanks for the update, it would still be cool.
It would indeed. But I suspect that landing on Earthlikes is at least a couple of years away. Planets such as Earth and Mars are likely to be even further away, as there will be a lot of work to get it right. I wouldn't like to see Earth as just another procedurally generated planet
Notwithstanding the whole "Luna is now covered in cities" thing, I'd love to see this
Maybe there would be the Apollo sites with original artifacts to visit as tourist sites. Or more obscurely, remnants of ancient probes like Lunokhod, Ranger, etc, to find. Not to mention the coolness of settling down into Tsiolkovsky crater on the Far Side just to say you've done it.
Exactley, it would be great
I think that's why the moon is permit based. They are probably building something there.
It's permit locked? Probably because someone dug up some large slab of something in Tycho, and they don't want anyone going near it

Yes it's a permit locked body, it has a red ring around it.
You could always try the game 'Orbiter' for moon landings but it's more of a real space sim.
Orbiter is a monster of a sim... I keep meaning to find time to actually get stuck into it properly!
