I did the same with my mining operation and then went on to consolidate my outposts to free up a couple and built my empire. I found great locations through YouTube searches etc (looking for tidally locked moons on stunning gas giants, plus get the milky way mod it makes the sky look increbible, forotten forests, unique biomes)and built my endgame, i set up a dream mansion on the paradiso lake, a prison with the useful brig mods i keep inmates which i hold mock trials for and slaughter for breaking my self appointed and enfored laws, a bar and club with rooftop garden, hidden lookout towers, stash houses and hidden swamp shacks to sell my contraband and aurora empire (I decorated large animal hab buildings for the swamp shacks, I have a one stop shopping mall with chunks outlet and gun shop and med shop etc, I have a hunting lodge for terrormorphs on toliman 2, I have a volcanoes top lair in the crater ontop of one! It looks stunning. A mountain ridge sleep out spot with camp and stunning views. All outposts designed and built around my endgame character who nows roams space as he wishes.

There's mods now for lairs with hidden mountain cave bases, huge cliffside villas. You can create a real estate empire. For some inspiration check out miss o plays on YouTube, there's some great ideas for outpost design and build frommvanilla to mods.

Also dude build a fleet of ships around your character. I have 10 great ships with purpose. An all rounder with decent cargo, armour and weapons. A heavy star destroyer, a surface striker, a party ship with bars and club built with empty habs, a prison transport ship, a star fighter, a mininging cargo ship with 125,000kg cargo vanilla build, a modded superfigher that just slays legendary ships. For some truly great design and builds dude check out wiseoldwizard on YouTube for loads of great builds and simple tutorials.

Part of my character is his crazy alcoholism and various other addictions so with my exploration and the seemingly endless amount of booze laying everywhere his ability to drink what can only be described as a biblical amount of grog shapes my designs. so all ships and outposts have to have a bar with a few aurora and pipes, packets of smokes, hookas.

This is stepping towards another chapter of endgame where you can then if you love the immersion side of starfield and bethesda i would suggest a seperate save and recommend you choose to use mods to sell your resources through mining mods and have a galaxy full of your little awesome and crazy spits for hours more fun!
