Yep. You generally want a decent level of certainty that your base won’t be overrun by whatever threats the planet will throw at you before heading to the next planet. And a level of certainty that you can get supplies to and fro.
I only left Nauvis when I had my entire base walled off and most enemies a fair distance out. I’m also trying for the Rush To Space achievement, so I’m a little limited in damage upgrades, so my first planet is Fulgora, where the entire hazard is environmental and easily managed, even if moving scrap between islands will be a hassle. I’m hoping that I’ll make it to enough EM science to research one thing, after which the floodgates are open.
