Npcs don't just appear out of thin air, they get made. Well they spawn from certain buildings in their bases, which can be destroyed.
Also I am going back to work on the ground for a while... got spacesick :).
That's a pretty interesting way of spawning npcs, quite similar to some rts games.
Yeah, the game has a bit of RTS inspiration. Since I modded rts games for a long time back in the day.
