is there plans for a "sandbox" mode? please? :)

I wold call that a creative mode.
I was looking at the sandbox option in the custom settings, hoping it would make the game feel a bit less rail-roady and more open, but I hope it is not some kind of god-mode.

What does that option do?

BTW - I love this game after 50 hours - feels like the situations are genuinely emergent from the sim universe rather then just contrived to produce grind (like so many other games) That is important and a great achievement.

*edit* I just found this post

Which explains that it adds a sandbox category to the build menu.
I am a kind of rogue-like type player so not my thing, definitely handy to prototype ships and get used to creating though.
