| OK, by this time, I have explored a lot of procedural galaxies. When I start exploring a new galaxy, I go into map mode to see the most luminous stars in the galaxy. After so many of them, I have noticed that some star types appear to not generate at all. What am I talking about? Here is what I am talking about:
1. Wolf-Rayet stars- If these were generated, they would be the brightest things in the galaxy and I would have surely found at least one by now. I haven't been having luck with that. Is there any explicit reason why these aren't generated?
2. Any super/hypergiant other than red- Again, these would be extremely bright and I would have noticed at least one up until now. White, blue and yellow only seem to generate up until 'giant' size, and never over that.
3. Carbon stars and Zirconium stars- Maybe these should be very rare or something? Not sure though.

| These are more exotic star types and to my knowledge they just haven't been implemented yet. They will be eventually.

Here is one for you:
HarbringerDawn- Yes, I know both exist, I am saying that they should also be procedural.
