Will we be able to influence and shape the galaxy ?

In the main game , not the fleet battles

here is my question / Suggestion

In the original Star Control / Star Control 2

Fighting Enemy fleets had very little affect on alien territory and the map

I was wondering if you are going to make it so destroying / clearing enemy fleets from systems will remove enemy presence from them and give friendly forces options to expand into that territory

This will give the user a feeling of progress in the war

Just a suggestion (if this is not already implemented)

and make fighting the enemy worthwhile beyond getting a few credits

The answer is yes.

This is one of the benefits of making a game in a 64-bit, multicore engine.

Everything in the game can change anything else. Now, most things won't have any affect. But let me give you one of the examples:

There's an ambassador you run into as a side-mission that if you help, can change a bunch of other side-quests in the game.

When the quest editor is made available, you will see what we mean in that every quest can actually create new variables that any other quest can do.

This also means that that someone could literally create their own quest, put it up on Steamworks and let others download it that when they go on it, could change something in the existing adventure (which also means, be careful when using third-party mods).
