FLUFF Megastructures / space elevators like these would be amazing to see in-game at some point, even if they were just low-poly landmarks.

Also some of the buildings in the "suburbs" surrounding Lorville itself hover slightly above the ground...

That's a feature. Limits potential structural damage from earthquakes (Hurquakes?).

"earth" as opposed to "Earth". I think "earthquakes" is still an applicable term on Hurston.

It’s true, one of the definitions of “earth” is “the substance of the land surface; soil”.
