Regarding schematics, I feel they should be something you find and can sell on the market. Maybe with the asteroids, there could be a crashed ship with a schematic or two on them? Players can then sell these schematics on the market.
^^ Just a quick suggestion.
Edit: PVE content could tie into it in the future as well as an alternative method of finding schematics.
Yeah, PvE would help with finding them if starting players are able to do so. Shouldn't be asteroids, at least for everything that's needed to construct a spaceship and get to said asteroids to mine / discover. I'm just learning the manufacturing process, and with current prices it takes a few days of the login 150k bonus to get enough money for a medium assembly line blueprint, and then more for the small container inventory to start storing my materials. The current prices for what I'm able to do refining the basic T1 ores doesn't make it too worth selling them.

I think the holes in the ground should deteriorate over time via earthquake activity or weight - this would allow for healing the ground. Also new ore deposits can form as they are shaken from the previously compacted 'undisturbed' soil. Personal tiles can be set so they do not renew any soil. Or like landmark did set it so you can create a zones on your own tiles where the terrain doesn't regenerate.
All the holes in my personal tile and ore has respawned. Not sure if that's normal so far, or if it was because of the patch and server reboot.
