Title says it all. What does everyone here want to see Static Cities such as Coronet and Theed going? Personally, I would like to see Theme Parks revolving around some of the cities. Post your opinions here!!!

I would like to see different layouts in the buildings. Make the cities a bit more unique.
I'm not talking about placement of buildings, but I'm talking about the actual layouts inside the buildings.
IE: most cantinas are the same (with a few exceptions) same with medcenters and things of the such.

Active imperial/rebel presence in imperial/rebel controlled cities. Kind of like the crack down on steriods. i.e overt rebels in theed should be attacked on site by Imperial forces and system message sent to any overt imperial in the city zone.Same thing for rebel controlled cities Greater interaction between player and cities, i.e nightclubs, apartments, crafter shops, etc.

wonder if there are anyways to have rebels pop out of nowhere and open fire at imperials, rather than walking around openly?

How about a reason to go to them besides travel?
Too many of the cities are complete ghost towns and never have anybody in them. I'd like to at least see bonuses in static cities like those you see in player cities, especially the medical and entertainment ones that nobody seems to use. Bonuses to auctions that would mean something, like the NPC city subsidizing auction activity such that the sellers make more and buyers pay less would make the whole system attractive enough so you could find items outside Theed or Coronet where all the foot traffic is now.

A way to prevent my client from crashing whenever I trravel to one.
But seriously, some kind of random NPC events would be nice. For example, a commoner is walking in Theed. Two stormies walk up to question him. After a few questions, he runs and they blast him. They walk over to him. One stormie searches him and says, "I told you he had spice." They walk off and leave his corpse behind. Random muggings and fights between NPCs on Rim worlds like Tatooine would be nice to.
Of course stuff like this would further encourage my client to crash, but the enterainment now and then would make up for it.

Some kind of (NPC) interaction other than mission terminals and unimaginative "quests" from random NPCs.
In other words, something more like Bestine (not another political situation, but you get what I mean), or even the Village. An ongoing metaplot with in-game consequences to the outcome.

Stories based upon the history and culture of the area. Adventures spent tracking down quests that spawn from those stories.
Also, apartments and mall sales.

The ability to rent houses and/or appartments in the NPC-cities would be an nice little feature. This could be with a horriffic maintenance fee so only rich people and large guilds could move into large cities, but it would give them a more central position in the game and at the same time it would work as a money drain from the games economythat people would be willing to spend.
I would also like to be able to as a politician to run for mayorin NPC cities and affect those cities policies, taxes, eventsand faction dedication.
NPC cities also need more "scripted" NPC events to make them feel more alive, not just the same NPCs satnding around 24/7. Make about half of the usesless NPCs go into houses and disappear at night, make some go to the tavern now and then to eat/drink and then return to their spot. Make the marchats and trainers leave their spot once in a while to go and deposit their cash at the bank. Just make them DO something and not just be zombies.

I would love to see apartment complexes or storage complexes. Rent a 75 spaceroom for 1 lot anda daily maintenance fee. Might get a bit laggy though.
Other than that, spas, saunas etc would be interesting as well.

for PLAYER CITIES
As a politician you are gievn the ability to raise a militia for your town, under the current system you can only make citizens part of that milita, but how about adding:
City Guards
City Guards could easily reflect the faction to which the City stands for.
A Town would get designated a new Guard Post Structure whose sole purpose is to let the system know that it can randomly spawn groups of npcs within the city.
ex: Imperial Town Guard Post would spawn Imperial NPCs that would spawnin the town randomly.
Therefore this Spawn Station would not only convey a sense of feel for the city but provide assistance in event of a city attack on a nearby factional base
For Neutral Cities:
You could option to spawn planet locals in your city
ex: Naboo City could have Gungans, Lok City could have Canyon Corsairs, Dantooine City could have Jantas, etc.

Cities to have more attractions, reasons to visit the city. City specific, so that you have to visit that city and no other has that sepcial thing. IE missions, npc's(more than what is out there). Try to bring back the dead cities.
