Base system or Nomadic?

I was wondering if people stick to a given system or are more nomadic.

After starting the game and leaving my 'home' system I did go somewhat nomadic. As a kickstart backer I had access to Sol so went pretty much straight there. After that mostly setup camp at Jameson Memorial. Although that was only really where I stored any ships I wasn't using at the time and would just go where I could get money or help out with community goals.

Not sure what changed but after 'accidentally' boosting my ship into the inside of a station I found which system was my spawning one. I have now pretty much setup there. Aligning myself with a couple of factions in the system (in spirit as I can't actually join them outside of CZ's), even giving my character some back story from the system. I have a reasonable trade route from there, with it also well placed to access Federal and Alliance space sectors. I kinda like that I now have something I can support. Having a system I start to care a bit more about what goes on in there, the Federation keeps going to war with a couple of the minor factions so I help out with them!

I started of in Psi Tauri and stayed there for a while. I've currently got my Vulture stored at Cartu while I'm out exploring. I might move again when I get back. I don't intend to do PP so I can live anywhere, although I do like being near a high tech system for ship upgrades and such.

I stick to Sol as home port but I roam about. I like to change rolls from time to time so I go back to Sol where I keep my ships.

Hip 20277 seems to be my home, but I do venture away for pp merits and missions.

Fusang!

Though... after three civil wars in a row... it might be time for Red and I to think about moving...

Come on over to Dvorsi, Boxcar. You'll love it. Close proximity to good RES, fantastic trade routes, and.... well.... I'm there. 8-)

Sak Manka is where you will find my ships parked. I tend to run around from there, and try to avoid doing anything that would jeopardize my status in that system and its neighbour NLT 8653 as between those 2 systems I can A rate any ship in the game.

Nomad.
the longest i have spent in the same system or trade route is at most 5 days.

I dunno why but I just get antsy staying in one place for too long.
