Open World AI groups

In Open World there should be small groups of Prospectors that have been there before us and refused to return to Orbit. They should have small bases set up and have it so you can attack them and steal their resources and they can attack you in retaliation. You only need three or four groups of them on a map, but it would make for some more interesting encounters. Maybe even make their capabilities different, like there is one hard group with a large base, one easy group with a small base and one medium group with a medium sized base. I have seen this work really well in other games such as Subsistence.
