Would you buy starcharts from an NPC?

    Here's the idea: a vendor who sells you the location to a world with a specific feature.

    Want a world known for having an Apex colony? Here's the coordinates!
    Want to visit a mushroom garden? Visit this system.
    Need a moon emblem from an Avian tomb? Check out this planet.

    Even if it didn't give you the exact planet, but just a system so you have to visit all the planets, that would be cool.
    It's significantly better than what I had to go through last night.

    I spent over 5 hours doing a systematic search of plants for a fraking Avian Tomb for a Moon Emblem, And I gave up and spawned my own.
    I visited at least 20 different worlds, and didn't encounter a single Avian tomb. What did I encounter?
    The same dungeons over and over: sewer, USCM bunker, Floran Hall, Apex Research Lab, and Apex Test Chamber.
    I also encountered several Floran, Apex, and Avian villages.

    I grew increasingly frustrated, wishing I could just know where to go!
    An NPC vendor who I could purchase the location of what I was looking for would have been amazing.
