You know... if the other races have broadcast signals we've received and we've broadcast signal they've seen... considering the spiders have both a sense of humor and regenerating limbs... Why do I see one of the cultural reason (instead of just the resource reasons) that Spiders and Terrans get along is because they both enjoy slap stick comedy. In fact Terrans are the first of the races the spiders have run into which made their own slap stick. The other races are all too serious for them to really get along with quite as well. Not that some other races don't think its funny, but laughing at physical comedy doesn't really require understanding the language. So even before they can officially communicate they have something in common.
On the genetics I honestly don't know your resources here. The thing about the most genetically modified race being compatible with humans sits wrong with me. I think its to the point we'll just disagree on it. Not that I'm trying to stop you, its a cause issue for me.
Try adapting the Spiders to a Venus like environment... Chlorine is a noble gas and fails to play well with other elements.
I think you need to sit down and work on the interactions between races now. Start off with how the groups interact. For instance the Felines have trashed their home world and I doubt they got along afterwards. So make a good portion of them somewhat nomadic, yes they have faction home worlds, but some of them are going decide that not being around them is a better idea look what happened last time.
Perhaps a group settle agrees to live under Terran rule and thats why we have crossbreeds I mean they managed to point enough fire power to level their home world 14-18 times over at each other for decades and managed to not obliterate it. The Feline home world obliterated themselves with only enough to do it three times over. The Terrans have great strength, are capable of being as violent or more as they are, and yet proved to have a level of restraint they just didnt. Or maybe its just they decided that the Terrans great strength and comparable physiology makes them hot.
The blobs I have nothing on culturally so cant comment. At least one other group is locked in its own system and considering the only way they could expand is into Sol, they can stay there and like it. Fleshing out the factions of the groups is going to require a base line. Also its easier to flesh out the factions and races if we can play them off each other.
Forgot the blobs entirely as they only came up once I meant 4 main groups. Anyway we can fill in more groups as we find slots for the to fill. So maybe we should take it a race at a time in block posts. That or start brain storming on what the blobs are like I mean they do naturally collect bits of other peoples and species for personal gain after all.
