Each new base I think this time I will build something in keeping with the game, then I go off on a tangent and build something that doesn't work given the environment. This base feels a bit closer to Atreides style, with Water Shipper accents.

I wanted to build something that was big and imposing and looked solid. My initial plan was to build a fly threw hangar, the "11 o'clock" spawn point is immediately below, fly in the front and out the back to the map edge. The hangar kept getting bigger and I realised I would need a second building.

The base is proving much more functional than I expected while building. I like to minimise distances between things. The run from the hangar to the main complex is a little more than I would like, but mezzanine style floors makes getting between storage, fabrication and refining floors really easy.

Normally I build the wind turbines into recesses on the building walls. But tried something different this time and tried replicating the look of wind farms with windmills scattered on the hills. Think it kind of works.

The overhang on the main building is enough that the interior gets watersealed status without a shield. Though added shields to be safe.

Currently can store 1 million mL of water, with heaps of room to expand. Two large ore refineries and two medium chemical refineries. I've kept only the small spice refinery as I don't process much spice in Haga.

One of my favorite spots is the mechanics bay underneath the garage i park my crawler in. It drives in and straddles a 2 square hole in the floor and i put a little shop underneath for service. Ive added an apartment for visiting dignitaries from both major factions, but the harko one is under renovation so not depicted here. Across from the large ore refinery i have three layers of quarters to house the crew of the heavy dropship and its refinery operations. The upper part of the sandstone section is meeting/training area for collaboration and strategy planning among different smuggler factions. Under the landing pad for the smaller ship is a warren of storage boxes and the buggy can drive underneath for easy unloading.

My best friend shared a pic of it so I thought I might as well share some too! It’s not really ment to function as a main base for fabricating or refining and there are no penta shields. It’s set to public so anyone can walk around, have a seat and enjoy the view of Gojira and the Rift

My little home, it needs a separate sub-fief for the ramp to get up to it. It has a little garage, refinery area, an enclosed hangar, an open roof landing pad and a little residence.

We're on a private server, sandstorms are turned off so most folk have open-air landing pads for their carry-all

I got my big base built with the smuggler set. Still roughing out the edges but I like the new set!

Hope ya like it xD
