Hey there,
Just a few ideas for greater variability of stations
Perhaps you could have some stations that have power failures, so you have no lights inside the bay and they're very dark, except for the lines around the landing pads with the numbers, would mean pilots have to use lights.
Perhaps also you could have stations with gas leaks or something like that inside the bay so it's hard to see where you're going, and both of these could be relayed via the comms on approach, informing pilots of power failures or gas leaks etc.
It would also be cool to have some variability in the types of stations offered. Instead of having one slot for all stations, perhaps like in one of the concept art pictures, have lots of docking bays set into the outside of a station, a bit like holes in pineapple, that are the same size as a slot, to get away from the large internal docking bay idea. Just a thought.
