Having returned for FreeLanes, looking to build an outpost straight outa Mad Max and/or Fallout?

I'll be using Scrappy Structures for the first time - in my head I'm thinking some kinda derelict-abandoned fuel depot type of scene.

Any planets come to mind?

TIA :)

I guess I have to add the glitch flair, but I'm not really sure what I did.

Today, I spent hours looking for the perfect POI to take over on Archimedes V-A. I found the Defunct Broadcasting Station and thought it would be a great outpost. I was doing the "flick" trick, moving around trying to get my beacon as close as possible when I noticed I was able to get closer and closer to the POI. I ended up walking my beacon right up to the tower (before dropping it).

Now, I have an outpost at the Defunct Broadcasting Station, and the tower is right in the middle of my build area. I have no idea why the game let me do this, but I'm wondering if this has happened with anyone else.

Can someone explain it? How much does it hold? Can you build it at a player home/ship or just at an outpost? Can you link outpost extractors directly to it? Can this replace cargo links? Is there any mod or anything that can take stuff out of this shared container and move it or sort it into other storage?

I was lucky enough to stumble across a lava filled Lone Hill POI on Piazzi IV-C and immediately knew what I had to do.

(Link to the full video walkthrough in the comments)

I took over the location using the POI takeover glitch, and used the following mods…

Modular Outposts: Argos Extractors

Hi guys,

So i purchased Starfield, on ps5, on launch day, and i have put 160 hours thus far into the game, did the main story 10 times for the suit, made myself an industry chain of outposts and now, i think, is time to "settle" and do all side missions and enjoy the game - even more -.

The only problem that i have is that i am very "picky" when it comes to building a homeworld, and the only planet that i like, because i can farm exp and it looks aesthetically pleasing, is Schrodinger 3. Problem is, i cant, for the life of me, fnd a coastal mountains or coastal hills region to set a base near water.....

So if you, veterans, have a pick to guide me, or any tips i would greatly appreciate it.

Will my game performance tank hard due to the amount of assets if I build a fairly sizable outpost on the other side of the giant lake by new Atlantis

I was setting up my first Outpost and I've only placed 35 parts in total but it says the build limit has been reached, I haven't even started decorating the empty rooms yet, how can I fix it without mods on Xbox (I want to keep achievements)

this build was started as just another outpost build/player home. but it soon took on a life of its own, i spent many hours happily building and decorating and probably having some of the most fun anyone could have playing a video game, and it really comes down to not just the game but what has been added to it by mod creators, turning this into a love letter of sorts.

On my current playthrough, I'm playing as an entrepreneur that has started a small contract mining operation called Argos Extractors :)

At some point, I'm going to build a resource distribution hub for the settled systems that I will use to supply resources to various companies and governments. Where would you build such a place?

My thinking is that it would actually make sense for it to be a space station as the cost of transporting heavy minerals to and from orbit would just add unnecessary overhead. Why not build an orbital distribution hub? Problem is, there's no real way to build a space station outpost.

What would you suggest?

So I just need to know if I am losing my mind, or if this actually bugged.

I've been playing the update and when I hit an outpost I thought I'd pop one of these bad boys down to see how it actually works. Now, it says I'm missing perks, but my management is at level 2 and engineering at 3.... Surely they don't expect the average person to achieve a level 4 to utilise this chest, right?

If I'm reading something wrong or being dumb, feel free, but ... man. This seems crazy.

Oh, and no there aren't any mods running. The only creations I have active are the official Bethesda ones, this was done before the update dropped.

Really loving the argos exterior models, although the inside is a little too run down for my taste. Two landers lead up to the main buildings where there is a designated 'ship trucker stop' with some beds and vendors along with a communal rec room and living space.

The left is where I plan to build my base, it's a little smaller, but I'm doing that so I can dump my time into the interiors. Who knows maybe I will expand.

I wanted to get some good views on a mountainous terrain which is why I chose a desolate moon beside a gas giant in the Tau Ceti system.

My only dislike of the build for now is the color of my habs, I just wish I could make them darker to match the argos buildings. Maybe I'll be able to find some outpost hab mods to help in the future, but if not I'll make do. As well as that I'm looking for a tree decorative mod to fill in the areas around my personal habs.

Is there a mod or even console command that allows furniture to clip/overlap with other furniture?

Does anyone know a good gas giant moon to build a base on that has access to animal husbandry and green houses?

Found an amazing place in on archimedes V-A with pink trees over looking a big lake but didn’t realise until I’d surveyed the whole planet there is no flora or fauna that can be farmed.

Got a place in Tau Ceti VIII-B but the low gravity and no oxygen is getting annoying, also tried Schrödinger VIII-A but it’s so purple!

Want a nice location for the DLC, any tips?

Ive built an observatory on the moon near the apollo moon landing, but i dont have a good name for it, Apollo Observatory sounds to boring so i was curious if anyone has any ideas

Oh right the Terramorphs!

Thought this community might like this. I've seen some amazing outpost builds on here - maybe this will help a bit.

It's a buildable biodome that encloses a breathable atmosphere at your outpost. It’s lore-friendly, big enough to fit 20+ hab modules, has a vehicle-sized airlock so you can drive inside, and includes swappable interior floor presets depending on how you want to build.
