I'd like to add the following to my list: Sullust. But first, some background on this world (I've marked initalics SWG features)

Standing 1 to 1.5 meters tall, Sullustans live in vast subterranean caverns beneath the surface of their homeworld. Sullust is a volcanic planet, with a harsh atmosphere. The underground caverns teem with small life-forms that the Sullustans hunt for sources of food and clothing. The few predators that wander the planet's surface rarely venture underground.

Sullustans speak a chattering language and are known throughout the galaxy as capable pilots and navigators. Sullustans have perfect direction sense and memory, allowing them to remember the paths they have traveled, and maps they may have seen. This sense is a necessity in the labyrinthine caves of Sullust. The people of Sullust have achieved a high-level of technology, and their underground cities are popular among traders who visit the cobbled streets and the wide variety of shops.

During the Galactic Civil War, the Sullustans were oppressed by the massive SoroSuub Corporation. The giant pro-Empire conglomerate disbanded the Sullustan Council, and ruled the planet, enforcing curfews and loyalty among the populace, and thrusting the Sullustans into a cheerless existence. At that time, fully 50 percent of the planet's population owed their livelihood to SoroSuub.

And now for our feature presentation...

Sullust.
The many vast cave systems of Sullust would make for some huge pirate & smugglerdungeons and themeparks. The underground cities, too, would be huge and underground. On the surface there'd be a couple of starports beside cave mouths, or tunnels burrowing deep underground into the citiesfor instant access to ships.
In the cities, there'd be a great number of Shipwright trainers, Starfighter Engineer trainers and trainers in a great many other professions. There'd be a SoroSuub themepark too, and some of its rewards would be the schematic & parts to build a SoroSuub V-35 Landspeeder.
If you go to the Hutt Hideout on Tatooine you'll get a feel for what Sullust might be like in SWG.
The lower levels of the caves wouldn't have cities, they'd be populated by large underground creatures. Huge nests of spiders, giant Centipede-like beasts, a giant bats would all live down in the depths below habitable levels, or in long-abandoned tunnels & shafts.
The surface wouldn't be buildable either, or would be limited to 1 metropolis, 2 cities, 3 towns and 3 villages.
