It would not be difficult at this point to enable the solo client to host logins by other clients. That feature is not essential to releasing the game on Steam so it is not a top priority at the moment.
However, if I decide to take the servers off line, and if Hazeron Starship appears to have some hope of making it on Steam, I will add hosting capability to Hazeron Starship. Then your friends could login to your Hazeron universe and you could play multiplayer with them.
There is also the distant possibility that a miracle will occur and Hazeron Starship will make a lot of money on Steam. If that were to happen, I might just upgrade the servers and keep them running for the fun of it.
There are many possibilities. Months of time will pass before the servers risk shutting down.
Oh yes, please add multiplayer to Hazeron Starship. I firmly believe that with the correct features implemented, including the ability to host, people will buy it and love it.
Small community servers would take the burden from you Haxus. All you would need to do is make it easy to upload log files and universe data via an SFTP (so you can investigate major game-breaking bugs)((only give access after a support ticket has been opened, something like that)). From there you can fix bugs and add features to your heart's content.
I would also recommend implementing whatever admin tools you have currently into Hazeron Starship so the owners of the hosted game can administrate their environment or appoint others to do so within their community.
EDIT: I was also thinking, to make the official servers a bit more enticing, you could roll new features to that environment first? Just thinking out loud.
