Star colours.

Does the star colour give an indication on what type of planets are in that system?

I don't think so. I have been visiting several different ones back to back to see if any differences there are.

The only thing I think I have noticed is that the colored stars have more hostile or special items on their planets. That is a theory not a conclusion though. For now, it just 'seems' that way, but the planet types themselves don't seem to be any more one thing or another, just the hostility or special resources on them appearing more as far as I can tell. I could be wrong though.

The Blue stars you have a higher chance of finding Rare materials and worlds that was shown in the E3 video(not like excatly but towards that)

The Red stars i believe are little less chance of the above than the blue, and green is lesser than red.

The Stars follow in this order;

Yellow (Class G/F) = Tier 1
Red (Class K/M) = Tier 2
Green (Class E) = Tier 3
Blue (Class B/O) = Tier 4

As others have stated the higher the star the higher chances you are to obtain rare materials.

I keep seeing people put them in this order but in game the Tau which is needed for green systems lets you go to blue systems but a Theta which is needed for blue systems won't let you go to a green system. So logically a green system is the highest tier.

Though your logic seems valid it becomes invalid if you take into consideration that theta is a higher level upgrade compared to tau. I conclude this as the needed resources for Theta seem more valuable. With that in mind, it could be that there is (again) a programming issue at hand obscuring the in game logic leading to an unintentional upgrade error allowing you to gain access to blue stars with merely tau upgrades.

This becomes more likely as you still need the Atlas Pass V.1 for canisters although you may only possess the Atlas Pass V.3. That seems to be an example of the case I just described above.

Does that sound logical?

But Nickel and Aluminum are needed for the tau and they are rarer than Gold and Emeril. You also need 500 Nickel and 800 Aluminum compared to only 500 of each for the Theta.

I'll tell you from experience, all the planets no matter the color seemed to supply me with the same stuff- creatures, materials and even the weather. It was all the same in all the dimensions, galaxies, systems.so I wouldn't worry too much about the planet colors.

[TBdog]

What are classes number? I heard lower means colder and higher means hotter. Is that true?

What do you mean with ''rare materials''?

When I had the tau upgrade, but not the theta upgrade it would not let me go to blue planets. It said I needed the theta upgrade to do so.

[kmtburton]

Did the opposite for me. Tau was the first I got. Maybe it is a bug then in the PS4 version.

generally no, though there may be slight differences. the numerical rating for the star indicates the stars temperature. 1 being cool, 9 being hottest. I should point out however that all the factors, including star type, color, temperature and affix (af, m, etc) have shown to be only extremely minor in terms of the content of planets and moons in the system.

It may have been prior to the cut content of planets orbiting stars and planets not being static bodies that just float near a skybox of star that it had more of an effect. You could infer that planets closer to stars would generally be hotter. This however is not the case with the release of the game. I have found the composition of planets to be so subtle as to be virtually indistinguishable with others.

The only tips I can give you are thus:

green colored planets tend to be toxic.

brown and dark red tend to be hotter.

blue tend to be oceanic.

purple tend to be barren.

even with this list, YMMV. The system we were shown pre-release is absolutely nothing like what we actually got. It's all just random.

Those numerical values are incorrect for temperature.
I have soley traveled to 'O' class systems and found that the numbers starting at 1 and ending at 0 ie 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 0 is just a colour hue tint for planet atmospheres and the colour of decals.
1 = blue, 6 = green, 0 = red, and the numbers in between are a mix ie 3 = yellow.
So if you're looking for a planet with nice green grass head for an O6 class system for a good chance to get one.
The planets atmospheres seem to be a mix between the planets generated atmosphere and the tint colour ie red atmosphere and a blue tint (1) will give a purple atmosphere.
For those planet withous clouds/atmospheres its a mix of the system nebula colour and the tint.
