I hope you keep us updated if you add some more to your base.. : ) I have pigs and bunnymen but my computer is so old that I have to keep them a couple of screens away or the lag around base becomes unbearable. Until I upgrade, I'll probably never be able to make it any more elaborate than this, sadly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love the small amount of light from the balls and placing carpeted flooring every second tile makes it look really organized. I mean it is any way but yeah, it adds up. Thanks again for showing.

Mencken Posted May 5, 2017 Share Posted May 5, 2017 Nothing compared to the amazing bases on here but this is my solo base. My favorite spot is in the back of the base where I can see two different biomes, sometimes I just stand there for a minute contemplating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which spot do you mean? The second or the third shot? I like your third shot. Nice view. It is completely different from what I would do. Like it. I like this topic a little more when someone is posting something that I would not do or consider. Thanks for that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pofil Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 This is still WIP but here are some screens I took last night (mostly) from a world I play with a friend of mine. First three screens are a capture of the map while the rest are screens of our latest base/zoo which now resides in what used to be a huge spider infested rocky biome. It's still a bit barren and it lacks some decoration, but we are getting there. I also took a pic of the spoils left from Bearger performing population control on the Beefalo. RIP P.S. If anyone is gonna ask how we got so many houndious shootious so quickly, we re-spawned the guardian with the console in our world, as we started it long before ruins regen was ever a thing. If you look closely at the map, you'll see that the oasis is actually Dfly's middle magma pond, where she re-spawns. You'll also see two critter dens and bee queen hives, as these things didn't spawn naturally in our world at first. Spoiler Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
disies Posted May 8, 2017 Author Share Posted May 8, 2017 Hi @pofil. Nice work! Considering that your world is at 2000+ I don't think having so many houndius was "quickly". But anyway, I'm curious what you guys gonna add to your world. Please keep showing. I like the stone wall markers at your roads. I also wanted to build a chessboard but the checkered flooring overlapped the forest turf and that is bothering me, so now it is unfinished. Placing cobblestone inbetween makes it look so stretched. *sigh* But I like the carpeted flooring around your chessboard. What does the "4:20" mean?

(Although your examples are still too big/spread-out IMHO ) I prototyped a design for the "central area" with 2 flingos I would leave running continuously during summer. Took a while (and a lot of wood) to (somewhat) implement it on the server proper. Prototype: Spoiler Playing with it on my proper server, 2 things are missing in the prototype: It's better to have the shroom + gekko farms close by, and the gekko farm must be covered by a flingo, otherwise gekkos die to fire. I generally don't bother putting non-stackables in chests (and indeed, the chests in the prototype are barely enough to hold stackable resources), so I thought dropping tools, wearables, packages and whatnot in the middle would be enough... But it's not, as trying to catch spores from a funcap is real nightmare will all that mess lying about. So I prototyped the farm area with drop-off space at least for food packages. The prototype map had no space in the area where I'd put it in the proper server, but it would be right next to central area: Spoiler I'll have to dedicate some extra space for tools/weapons outside the flingo range - it's not they burn, anyway...

We played with turf quite a bit and to be honest, if you don't have tamed beefalo to move the pieces around, our chess is practically unplayable. But I think it looks awesome at least and I'm glad we found a place in the world where it fits and doesn't get in the way of anything. 3 hours ago, myxal said: 6 hours ago, disies said: What does the "4:20" mean?

(Not that I mind - I can always use an extra berry bush to replace a diseased one.) Top left where the zoo pens are used to be all rocky turf, which is now paved across the overworld and caves in the form of cobblestone roads (recently counted 600 tiles of cobble just in the caves). After we dug it all up and started building a base there, we filled the blanks with turf dug up from our other bases, places on the map we didn't care about, etc. So any turf you see there was put there by us. We do get occasional twiggy trees and juicy berry bushes re-appear along the lumpy evergreens near our main road. They don't get in the way that much though, and if anything the juicy berries are welcome. We do have problems with lureplants however, and we are debating just switching them off from world options... Having man made turf in the zoo pens just does not work aesthetically but the lureplants keep eating our no eyed deer and koalas and it's getting really annoying.

There's (AFAIK) 1 natural turf that blocks eyeplants - sandy. Though granted, other than voltgoats, the animals would look out of their habitat if they all had sandy turf in their pens. And respect for all that turf-moving. o_0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
