What I did today...? Well, started my Base (Basic) on the Temperate Swamp Planet. Found a suitable Valley, surrounded by several Villages and about 20 Ore Nodes. The Swamp Bioms are quite strange, besides of Sathium and Cobalt Rocks you'll find Fiber, tons of corn, Varon Roots which are 10m beneath the surface(used GM) but still plugable. I used my I.R.D.S- Base (Imperial Rapid Deploy Station) which I actually built for the Arid Planet, only re-painted it from a Sandy Yellow to a dark green to blend into the area. You will notice that even with overcast Weather the Solar-Panels provide enough Power to actual Charge the Capacitor Base blended in
I love the turrets guarding the entrance to the valley. Makes me think of some RTS games I have played in the past. Is that the direction the drone attacks come from?
Yes, Drone base is 8km straight north of me. I intend to fortify the valley in case the Patrol Vessel "stops by" too Several Industrial Buildings are planned so would like to have it secure there. Some inspirational pictures for the buildings
I am terrible sorry to hear that. Did your GF uninstall the game because you shared more time with EGS and BPs than with her?
Oh gee.. I've misread.. you're not coming back @The Tactician[ Λ ] .. i'm sorry to hear. Loosing blueprints is annoying, specialy of unfinished Projects! Thats why I usualy do a backup once a month… which i've missed the last 2 months.
Finished up the Bullfrog Cargo ship today. It's only looks somewhat ridiculous. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1539912866
Been busy at the spawndock, currently Building - as announced - a City within the Hangar Spoiler: spawndock pics Then, at night, I could not Sleep, so I drew a new Sv, which i've just finished Building: Spoiler: Viper pics Nice view from Cockpit Most important stuff near Cockpit Acceptable stats for a fighter:
I finally got some motivation to work on my WIP light carrier the T4-Carapace some more. The shape is pretty simple actually, a decently big hangar with big engine arrays on both sides, armor plates on the top and bottom and a small bridge above. It's rocking a fly through hangar, which is real convenient for quick deployment of ships. Here's the rear, I feel like I need something behind the bridge. Here's the top view. There are a lot of retractable turrets on this ship, with a total of 10 missile and 12 cannon turrets, and 8 sentries sprinkled around for clearing out critters at landing zones.
**** happens. I've spent the last month or more restoring my favorite BPs from old screenshots after losing them all when A8.5 (or was it 8.6?) happened. I'm saddened at losing the bases as most were too complex to recreate exactly. Even my ships are just close approximations hopefully somewhat enhanced with newr developments. I feel for ya, Bud, I really do. But like I said, **** happens. Good luck going forward.
