It's so beautiful! I actually need to design some "crystal caves" for a moon in my scenario and this was the perfect inspiration. Thank you for sharing these beautiful caverns.
My little decoy critter cavern(core only) next to Zirax territory filled it with a few surprises , There's always one.
I've managed to create a stable floating base/platform, because of size, i've had to join 8 base blocks(up to yet ). Now I can start to create my floating city. CV ON PLATFORM, I downloaded MrIceCat's, Hakon CV, FROM WORKSHOP.
Alright, you have me wondering.... I assume you are in creative mode but I didn't see any support structure. Where did you place the base blocks? How is it that the structural integrity allows this? Its a cool idea and is giving me some thoughts as I like the idea of a city, much like in Star Wars, where it is in the clouds. I suppose not much different that the alien structures that hover in this game I suppose. Just never known how they could be built.
Hi Drifter, I am in survival mode, but use item menu & godmode for building, I have no idea, how the "alien structures" float/hover in game. I have made a little video, of how I build my floating bases/platforms, The 1st 6mins, show how I join a new base block to existing structures, the next 3mins is me being dumb, I forgot that I had a underground base, where I was showing how I start a floating structure( could not place base block). The rest of video, shows placing initial block for start of a floating structure, you can take it as high as you want, I just kept it low for this video. I like to use 3 block depth, so I can add fuel tanks & generators inside platform, but could use solar panels for energy. I also, like the idea, of a building, a floating battle arena, with floating stepping stones, but I suppose it would only be any use in multiplayer, which I have yet to try . I hope this video, helps you to create your Star Wars themed city.
I tried to understand how you are doing this but even after the video, I still end up with weak structural integrity or a fail. I can get the build into the air alright but it goes down hill from there. No idea what I am missing.

From what I can see, you need to add more "filler", my platforms, are 3 blocks in depth, 2 layers of blocks, sandwiching, a web of filler, I have just added "Arabian Palace" from workshop, to my platforms, you can see the web of filler, sandwiched between blocks, I spawned the palace, straight onto web of filler, then added the platform around palace, Just made a little video, at 1.30min you can see "structural integrity is RED, then when I add FILLER & ANOTHER ROW OF BLOCKS, INTEGRITY IS BACK GREEN & STABLE, you can remove filler as I show, & still retain structural integrity. From your pics, if you add a spiderweb of filler over your platform, then add another layer of blocks, you should regain, structural integrity. or try the technique @Germanius as provided.
I spawned one of my old cavern bases from alpha8, into alpha10.., a memento old times sake. it is mainly only the lights & some flooring, just doing a quick exploratory dig,
Digging a section of tunnel, to connect a old rainbow cavern system to a new one. Only a basic tunnel/cavern, they don't take long to do, but fun digging them, waiting to see what emerges. I find it best to do in "godmode", working backwards. Loving the drills. I recon caverns would be good, to battle in, in multiplayer, a bit of close close quarters combat. section of caverns/base
This week I started my first game at multiplayer(loving it),on eleon official server, spent 4 days on starter planet Alton, then flew to Bondoin, been here for 3 days, of course made a little cavern base, met some good people, joined clan APH, so now I am moving to Kantir, so made a little video of my PINK cavern base, b4 I leave, on new adventures . PS my base was whites & golds, but when I came back from raiding someone had painted part of my base pink!, but went with flow now its my pink outpost, not the colour I would of choose to be honest, but its growing on me:_)
hardly play sp anymore, enjoy playing on the eu server, even though the bases get wiped, every now & then, & with caverns you cannot blueprint, but i enjoy starting over fresh, after christmas wipe, i now have a few bases on different planets, & space station, but i always start with a base on bondoin, here is a walk around part of my colourful bondoin base, not every 1's cup of tea, but i like my daily colour fix
