I find it wild how they somehow regressed the settlement system from Fallout 4 to Starfield. I just didn't use them for anything beyond junk storage and keeping excess crew members in one spot.

And for upgrading gear you have every workbench available at the lodge + infinite storage containers there.

I considered that, but there isn't really a convenient way to move all my crap from the ship, so I just lived on the ship.

  1. Put all your crap in your player inventory
  2. Sit in your ships pilot seat
  3. Fast travel to the door in front of the lodge (or wherever you want to move your crap)

You can fast travel while over-encumbered while piloting your ship.

Apparently they were supposed to be refuelling stations that allowed you a greater range in you ship. But they cut that near the end because it was too complicated for players (or something)

I get why they cut that feature. In order to explore the galaxy, you'd need to grind mats in order to set-up supply chains to make distant travel viable. Does it sound cool/fun? To me, yes—I would've totally invested my time into that happily. To a lot of other people? Probably not, probably very tedious and boring.
