For starters this is where my storage base is located. It turns out that L360's base is only just a stones throw away from my build location lol what are the chances ;)
Here is us mucking around with the shelving. Which evolved rather quickly. His thoughts were to trim it with a pillar which turned out to be a bit of a hassle with snaps and such. Even with the pillar breaching the ground it kept disconnecting when we dropped out the supporting ceiling lol. In the end we managed a work around which lead onto a far more annoying to snap idea of adding doors to the shelves and turning it into a cabinet!
It turned out amazing!!! We had to leave some invisible glass railings on the underside of the catwalk so that the double doorframes would stay attached. There was so many overlaid snaps in the area that getting them to snap into where we wanted was a challenge to say the least. Thankfully between the two of us we managed to sort through them and end up with this :)
He decided to get into the mood of the location (in one of the bedrooms behind G,G,G). He picked the one with the chains hanging from the roof lol. This is the only room I can see that has the new cabinet shelves penetrating it so a few bottles made it a thing :)
Cya L360 thanks for stopping by :)
With renewed enthusiasm I went through some of my existing vanity projects and tweaked things. The cryo facility has had an upgrade that gives a much better vibe! Can you guess the parts used to make the contraption in the middle?
I've moved the hives out (they are now in the seapen (yes really the seapen)). Sorry I forgot to screencap that bit but to be honest its nothing special. Just a few underwater cubes with hives in them. I must get round to seeing if the bee's can sting you underwater lol. So in the hives place I kept the airlock and made the area into a medlab. I was going to try use the multi lamps to make a mic and do a recording studio but I couldn't get any to cover the extra 2 lights for the look I needed. I'm happy with how this turned out. There is enough going on to give the right atmosphere. On the outside of the airlock another airlock facility was added.
Instead of blending it into existing structures I went with a look that suggests that it was added as an after thought (which is true). There are a couple of angles at the back which are awkward and I like it for this. If you can't tell this is my quarantine room. All this is across the hallway from my hospital wing so it all ties in rather nicely.
The hospital wing got a tweak as well. It now has visitor seating in the middle and I used some crop plots from Adv Rafts to add some life to the place. I embedded the piping in the wall which incidentally means you can access the tap from either side of the wall lol.
One of the comments L360 had was that the middle of my underbase needed something in the middle. I had always planned to do something but couldn't think of anything. He thought some kind of pillar would be good but in the end I created what I had orig hoped would be the major light source for my underworld. It has a few internal lights and 3 searchlights pointed at it. The beam is the transmitter in my crafting room which took a few goes to center it. I've used a standard transmitter in this case so I can turn it off when I don't need it to look so good :)
I added some tri roofs to the existing structures and came up with this which works for me :)
I also got round to adding a platform down here to place and indust forge. It may need some tweaking but its workable. And I've added a hatchframe above so it can be accessed from the top level (only using the res transfer gun).
So this new base only has a room or two to complete now :) There is a room I keep meaning to revisit at the storage base but once that is done I'm prob gonna leave the rest as is for now. There are a few empty rooms in the storage base but I want some space for expansion rather than filling it all from the start. I may have already mentioned this in one of the prior posts. I just remembered another room 2 rooms that actually do need to be done but they shouldn't take too long. I've already got some ideas for projects to do after these few things are completed! I can't wait to start some new bits!
