crafting game with whole or multiple solar systems
I would love to see a game were you have a whole solar system or multiple ones in a crafting exploration game like this. You could start on one planet than craft your way to space and also craft space stations, in and on asteroids and star ships. Yes why not let some planets be terraformable near the end game. dosent have to be too big maybe 3 to 5 systems. would take a lot of work to make. maybe underwater crafting to like subnautica as well

You might like the game Astro Colony. It is exactly what you describe.

The closest thing to this I can think of is Dyson Sphere Program, although that is more of a factory game than a crafting survival game. But it does have interplanetary travel and even space combat, and there is definitely a lot of crafting. WAY MORE than you'll find here, being a factory game.

No man's sky too but there is no terraforming in it. A ton of different crafting on planets, on your ship, portals to connect everythings, etc.

Is this procedurally generated entirely or did they go over it after. I also wonder if it's in one or two systems or like space between the stars

What do you mean by 'this'?

If you are talking about No Man's Sky, its 100% procedural.

If you are talking about Planet Crafter, the planet is hand-crafted, as are the locations where you land after taking portals. The only thing that I believe is truly procedural is the interiors of the wrecks you find within the portal locations.

Sounds to me like you'd enjoy No Man's Sky, or maybe Starbound. Both are procedurally generated, with No Man's Sky being 3D like this, while Starbound is 2D like Terraria. They let you visit hundreds or even thousands of planets.
