Ragnarok - Day 25

Had another day off over the weekend but got a reasonable amount of progress done in a few short hours today.  My center map has no longer got dino's on it.  A whole stack of them I just realized are currently sitting in the transmitter (oops).  I must remember to liberate them before long.  I was sitting looking at my build and I was thinking about all the rooms I have currently set aside for random vanity projects and realized I hadn't really done much vanity building in my playable base.  So today I sat down and did a few.  Only a few because I'm currently drawing a blank as to what to fill some of the spaces with.  If I was to redo previous idea's I could fill the spaces in a few hours without really having to think about it.  I've considered doing a bottle shop, furniture shop (lol this would be super easy just rows of the same furn in a large space) but I don't want to cheap out tooooo much lol.


I had to screen cap this visual glitch lol.  This is my critter room and it looks like they have crapped ALL over the floor.  I did a roll back on my gfx driver to the one I was using prior to the recent update.  Its a MUCH older version but I don't get the regular crashes and with an up coming event I can't afford to have it bail out on me.  The event in question is still up in the air a bit.  I'm pretty sure it should come about but I don't want to announce it properly as real life happens :)  


So in my new base's landing platforms I have a nice big area to work in.  I had thought of leaving them empty but I want to be sure I have plenty of content completed for said event.  So this is the first project and its pretty simple yet I really like how clean cut it came out.  I could do with prob putting some posters on the wall to give it a final classroom kind of look.  


I've even included a small locker area with toilets and down this bottom right some extra books and refreshment area.  I've decided to leave the roof as one way glass so it feels like there is no roof on the room.  It makes the space feel nice and large and seriously who wouldn't want a massive skylight in their classroom?  Well prob the people in this class as its under a landing pad they will be watching the rear ends of the fliers that will eventually be using the pad lol.


Under this landing pad I have made an airlock entrance into my hive room.  These are all S+ hives which I only just remembered will actually water your plants.  I should have incorporated this into my greenhouse but no matter.  I also found out today that my normal method of eating mushrooms as food has been messed up.  I've been running infinitestats and god during the major construction this time round (I have a habit of jumping/falling from heights) so I hadn't been using food until today.  Well my dude is completely tripping balls on mushies right now.  Its a bummer they have been a great source of food till now.  I might have to mess with custom recipe's as meat always spoils too fast.  It was Bull (my old tribemate) that got me into using them as food as at the time they didn't have a spoil timer and gave about as much food as cooked meat.


This is also a rather plain space.  I feel like I need something in the middle of the room just to tie things in a tad better but I made myself a hospital wing.  This is a luxury hospital with nice double beds :)  I considered the standard beds but they look too dirty for this project.  If I can think of any additions I might fill in a little of the space in the middle.  I'm thinking a few couches would be ideal as a waiting area for visitors.


Oh and in the underbase entrance bridge I've allocated the space as more stables.  It seems that the small stable area I made wouldn't house all the horses I already had so I expanded into this space.  I knew it would come in handy :)

So I'm gonna have to spend some time today brainstorming some new idea's for vanity projects.  I'm hoping for about 3 more to fill the spaces I want to complete.  Fingers crossed I have at least one idea while I'm at work that I can build when I'm next on.  If not I will rework one of the rooms in the storage base that I decided I wasn't happy with.  (And deploy the last of the dino's from their digital confinement lol)
