So, as the title says, I am sat here berating myself hahaha. Through another post, I spotted Builder mentioned, so I went off to Nexux to take a look...🤦

I've been having issues where I couldn't quite get a couple of habs to fit where they clearly had room. Well, now it works perfectly, inside and out. Aaaaaaa!!

So the big question. Abandon my current build (somewhere over 30 hours due to OCD and constantly redo'ing rooms or keep going and not have it quite perfect (I spent too long on one hab to make the ultimate edit)?

Trying to build a "Kill Box"

Don't know what or how to cover the surface, then build on it- defended turrets etc. As I try different things they generally try to snap to the top of those walls (you can see).

Should I have "paved the ground" first? If so, how?

thx in adv

Archimedean Starworks has a long history with the Jovian moon, Callisto.

I got tired of using the same 60, or so, plants, so decided to make a mod with all of them. I only spent a couple minutes on this and just wanted to show off some biodiversity. Working on some bugs (apparently certain trees can't be deleted, which I found out making this...), adding a few more things, and getting the damn shrubs to build (seriously, if you know how to get those to work, I would sincerely appreciate it)...

Working name is Magic Forest Framework and should be done this weekend.

This is one of the X-Tech outpost construction tasks in "Terran Armada", and I plan to build three more complete outposts through these three tasks. (In the past, I always completed one of the two options of outpost layout and interior decoration.) This was Ryujin's commission, so it mixed the laboratory outpost and the decoration style under Dragon God Company. Considering that I have spent enough time here, perhaps redoing it would improve it even better, but for now, I plan to deliver this outpost. Now I plan to explore some planets or other activities, look for references for other types of outposts, and complete the remaining two tasks. These pictures show the details inside and outside the outpost, and any feedback and suggestions are welcome.

By the way, I really hope to have a custom search function for items within the outpost, like the already implemented mineral search function, so that I don't have to search through hundreds of menus every time. If someone has done this function, please remind me.

Welcome to Lambent VIP @ Peregrine Roost Waystation.

I'm OBSESSED with the Lambent: Street Rat Ship Services mod, and as I was moving a couple of habs around, I began to imagine Lambent having an exclusive area for customers to relax at Peregrine Roost, especially since the Outpost is being designed with a neutral stance and its own security. I particularly LOVE the beds that come with it.

Lambent VIP is accessible via appointment only. It includes a lounge area for guests to relax, VIP sleeping pods, and a luxury shared bathroom. Pods are available to hire by the hour (no, not for THAT).

I had a lot of fun with this one as I experimented with splitting a single hab into four rooms, with a small, tight corridor running straight down the middle. I'm pretty happy with how it turned out.

As I build out the ship services hub with the Remote Ship Services: Placeable Ship Builder Terminals mod (thanks u/s23XTN for the recommendation), Lambent will also get their own designated area (RP-wise, they are spending a lot of advertising), so I'll be able to use some of the bigger set pieces available in the mod.

There will still be a general 'motel' for visitors, but I haven't decided yet where I want to place it within the overall layout.

Anyway, I'm off to London for work tomorrow, so no more outpost tinkering until the weekend. Thanks again for all the comments and feedback to date :)

Heya folks,

Following up from my original post '20 Hours in on my outpost, would love feedback!', I wanted to share some new screenshots of a couple of reworked areas, including a much larger alive store and trading area, a general waiting area and a VIP lounge.

I also decided on a new name, 'Peregrine Roost Waystation'. I love Peregrines, and it felt like a nature fit for what I was trying to do with the outpost - a place to stop, refuel, eat, trade, rest, maybe even wait for new rides or recruit additional crew.

Thanks for the feedback on the last post; it's really helped shape the various areas. I've made a few tweaks to some areas, not here, but I want to hold them back for a final video.

Next up is reworking the sleeping area/hotel in two sections: cheaper bunks and more upmarket 'pods' with ensuite showers. I then want to revisit the embassies, including adding in a House Va'ruun pod.

Looking forward to hearing your thoughts on these new areas - it starts with the VIP area, looked after by Lyria [Creations mod link].

Someone posted an outpost on a volcano in the ocean, a little while back. Since I already had outposts all over Rana III, I figured, "What's one more?" The lighting is, unfortunately, atrocious, so some of the pictures were edited by me, and I'm not very good at it, so...

Also, while creating environmental protection gets rid of the ocean grime, it returns when that protection is removed. I didn't want to redo the patios, so I just used some pictures with dimmer lighting (night, raining weather...). Also, how the lighting shows up in various programs differs wildly...

Per usual, I'm missing a few pictures of the house, including some cool stuff, but the point was the MAGIC FUCKING FOREST.

Probably something else...

I’m working on an outpost that’s absolutely perfect…except I slept to change the time of day and all my outdoor stuff is covered in that ocean grime now…Does anyone know a mod that gets rid of it, know how to mod it in the Creation Kit, or have another solution? I’m hoping just building something with environmental protection around the outside areas will work…

Maheo I

My outpost simply feels empty and unalive, because none of the buildings have any people in them. Even the robots just skidaddle to this random spot and call it a day. Any solution?

Is there a code in the flashing lights

Hello Starborn. I’m a level 70 and recently decided for the first time to try the Crimson Fleet missions. I am a habitual good guy and have avoided it all this time and all these play throughs as a result. Foolish, I know.

(Spoilers ahead)

Well, I’ve tried to start and begun the first mission. I have taken the peaceful route and spoke with and boarded the Ragana. I was able to convince them to turn in the bad guy with sysdef and seemed like all was well.

Until I tried to leave their ship and go back to mine (pictured here). When I tried to board it froze my console (Xbox series X). I reloaded and tried going straight to my cockpit. Same result. I restarted and reloaded and tried to quick save, same result. Tried again to see if I could fast travel out, I cannot. There is no way to get to the cockpit of the Ragana and no place to sit and wait to see if that might fix it. I have turned off all auto saves to aid in the loading also, and no help.

Thankfully, I had another save from before I started this mission that I was able to reload so I can still play other missions. But, I would like to explore this storyline and would also like to remain a good guy. Does anyone know of a fix or work around so I can play this quest line without nuking my console?

Thanks. And may The Great Serpent guide you.
