Architectural ideas that need help [Lighthouse]


Recommended Posts

I want to share a creative idea of mine, but I don't have the ability to realize it. I hope Klei can help me realize it.

 

The lighthouse is a tall tower-shaped building. The lighting equipment should be installed in the tower, and the location should be prominent. It should be noted that it should have a specific architectural shape, easy to distinguish between ships, and become one of the highest points of the port. Since the surface of the earth is curved, the tower body must have sufficient height so that the light can be seen by a long-distance ship. The viewing distance is generally 15-25 nautical miles; however, the light should not be too high to avoid being shielded by clouds and fog from high places. . Depending on the size of the lighthouse and the characteristics of the location, the lighthouse can be guarded or unattended, and important lighthouses should be guarded.
Lighthouse structure:
                                   Tower body
                                    Lamps
the real function:
                           Escort lighting
                           Geographic coordinates
                           Military defense
                           Declare sovereignty

 

I hope to introduce the new building "Lighthouse", which can show a certain range of terrain on the map, similar to "Ocuvigil". At the same time, it can provide a little faint light, and brighter light requires the player to add fuel. Its model should be tall, surpassing all current models, similar to the volcano in SW, which is as high as 4 to 5 Wilson.

The construction method of the lighthouse can be similar to "Hermit Home", which needs to be constructed with various materials multiple times.

The size of the lighthouse is similar to "Oasis Lake"

The lighthouse can be accessed inside and is divided into two levels. Here I have a simple sketch of the lower level, which was drawn by my friend for help. I am very grateful to her.

I don’t have much thoughts on the upper level. I can only find some actual photos of the lighthouse from the Internet. I hope I can help you.

 

I hope to receive a reply from klei
So I can look forward to the update
If this idea is not adopted, I also hope someone can make a mod
Because i don't know programming

So it's a giant expensive building that only serves as Occuvigil? Lighthouses are cool no doubt but you might wanna give it a bit more thought...

①Similar to "Ocuvigil"

②Permanent light, add fuel to make it more range

③Livable house

I hope to increase the interaction between players through the new building, which is more in line with the theme of multiplayer online

 

:-DIf you just want to live alone, you can remove the wick of the lighthouse so that others cannot see you on the map. This is what i just thought of

Though I understand the idea, it seems a bit flawed. 

However, I love the idea of having a house that you can actually live in, like in the Hamlet DLC, and I think in the future you should be able to build a little shack to shelter yourself from the elements.
