+  - there are N (~15-20) elements that can be found in space
+    - different groupings: metals, gases, probably not going into the physics of how this shit actually works
+  - different planets may spawn with varying proportions of elements
+  - different combinations of elements may contribute to the same "purpose" but have incompatible tech trees (ex. GasA-extraction may allow for the discovery of A-related techs, but can't be used for GasB-related techs)

+
+- pop traits:
+  - 
+
+- prologue:
+  - mostly same as stellaris, u are a ruler of some kind of empire that has unified control over ur planet and just discovered FTL travel
