Looks really good! I love the lighting and the whole theme of it.
I think my storage area will be somewhat similar to that layout, looks a decent size (if not a little big) for the level I’m at
Oo such a good idea with the furnaces! This is what I was looking for haha little tricks like that that I hadn’t thought of yet!
Well it looks excellent, I thought about having a larger basement storage room for overflow and then a smaller version near my machines that I can keep stocked from downstairs… I really need to get organised and start the serious grind lol
if I had any advice, if planning on staying in same area, is to leave room to expand, because you’ll eventually want to.
I’ve enlarged my storage work shop about 5 times and probably will do so some more (gleambow, darn you!).
Thanks for that. leads me to my next big personal debate… stay where I am (right next to Rivertown where I first warped when I started, not much room for expansion) or pack up and find somewhere new.
I’ve grown quite attached to Arie though and consider it my home planet so I may just have a look around for a deserted area now I have the skills and fuel for a few portals
So i have all my machines set up with storage a bit behind each one with items used in each machine, like monster parts behind extractor and gems behind compactor. Overflow items that would take up a lot of storage space i put in shop stands in the ground and put a high price on them so i can see whats in each shop stand. I also have storage right below each machine for quick access items. Im at work atm so cant take screenshots
depends on your ambition
I took a spot on a small island in a big lake because I knew I wanted to build. and build.
But I’m a solo player and that’s how I play.
Having ability to put up portals opens up your options immeasurably…room to expand but still be connected to communities.
Or can do a build in the wilderness and also in cities.
Really down to your play style.
I’m struggling between my natural solo type play style and wanting to create something others will come and see/use
I think for now I’m going to be a loner and just focus on myself until I can make a decent contribution to a community… I think you just helped me decide that I’m moving house daunting!! Looks like I’m exploring Arie tonight to find somewhere scenic and lonely hahah
The planets are pretty massive and do vary greatly in scenery. Nothing wrong with going it alone and learning as you go; I’ve done the same exact thing. Tho my aspirations may be a bit overwhelming atm, I’d love to create something that will eventually be functional, inviting and contributive in some way. I’ve redone my workshop at least three times to keep expanding and I’m still not satisfied, lol.
You’ll probably always be able to find room for improvement. The further along you get (and the more alts you make) the more plots and materials you’ll have access to. It’s such a fun process! Building underground works wonders for that, too.
Yeah, the sheer volume of stuff to do and level and gather is one of the reasons this game is so magnificent hah. It’s a long project that you can’t just master in a month… I’m very excited to get started properly!!
I had some adventures, and entirely moved my base once. This base won’t be moving, though I will be building some others around the boundlessverse. A single t6 hunt can fuel a personal portal for 80 - 100 days depending on how well you do so really, if you find a wonderful spot, there’ snot reason to worry (too much) about how close it is to others once you level up into your 30 or so and can can hang around freely on level 3.
Ah my building isn’t the greatest perhaps, but that’s what I’ve got going on. I’ve got some stuff on other planets but nothing serious. I’m eyeballing a friend’s settlement on houchus, but I think it’s always wise to have a low level facility that any character can access, and not so dependent on connections through multiple regions.
Good luck finding a spot! Also as hard as it might be to believe, that’s a lot shorter than the post I was going to make. I might actually do a thread/tour about it later now that i ran around and took screen shots.
