Eh, in this case I will just try to scrap your OP with some regexes and what not.
Thanks anyway, seems like it might be worth it.

Thanks.
Oh, and about the celestial bodies' texture, I don't really create any textures. If you want, you can go pick gas giant textures and other things from Celestia, and I also use various available textures from Orion's Arm Celestia addons.

Kepler-47 is out! Explore the binary star system with two three neptunian circumbinary planets! Note: While creating the system, I found that the game currently only account for the primary object's mass and not the secondary object's mass to calculate the orbital period.

YZ Ceti is out! A rather normal red dwarf system with 3 planets (b, c and d) and one unconfirmed (e), all orbiting too close to their star for liquid water, the system is special due to its position, being less than 1.6 light years away from Tau Ceti. Note: all four planets can be observed in the image. d is the planet on the foreground, while the other three sit on the ecliptic line as 'dots'. WARNING: DEEP GRAVITY WELL. TORCHSHIP REQUIRED TO TRAVERSE THE PLANETARY SYSTEM.

Originally, the game doesn't support more than one star, but last year, after TRAPPIST-1 modding, they added in the feature. Now you can have as many central star as you wish.

82 G. Eridani is out! Not sure if the four inner planets are in a stable resonance, or are we watching a planetary scattering in process. The two inner most planets (unconfirmed g, b) are almost in 3:2 resonance, while the next (unconfirmed c, d) are in 2:1 resonance.

So it adds the stars in sandbox mod?

So it adds the stars in sandbox mod? These codes add celestial bodies that you can use them in sandbox mode or make campaigns with them. Though, these days you can just make a new planet using in-game maker, it's easier.

Can you make, saying, a hypothetical Milky Way gravity core and let the other stars have it parent body, making interplanetary homecoming mission for fusion drive torch ships?

Kepler-1625b i's possible orbit (2018.10.03)I've updated the Kepler-1625b i. Now its orbit is 45 degrees away from the planet's orbit. Source is the video made by the researchers who found the evidence for the moon here: youtu.be/vlcc2MdYaik?t=799
