Superbase Tour

[zoura3025 0]

I... love the update... a little too much.

 

This is my main little hideout. It connects to the mine (not shown in this tour), the Intercommunal Railroad, and the Wind Farm. I'm in the process of building extractors for every resource I deem useful (in other words, screw ammonium, coal, and organic).

 

I didn't get many details of the wind farm, since it's mostly still "indev", but I wanted to show it to prefice just how much of a building nerd I am.

 

I spent way more time than I'd like to admit on my connector between the main base and the Quarry. Thankfully, I had the Quarry up and running, so grinding all the materials wasn't... as bad as one would think. At least I got some pretty mountain views out of it. Also: SYSTEM ERA, PLEASE, FOR SOL'S SAKE, GIVE US LONG-RANGE CONNECTORS.

And lastly, we have my humble little Quarry base. Fun Fact, I actually ended up stranding myself here because I took a large platform with me and forgot about tethers. Je ne suis pas tres intelligent.

Bonus Picture: To aid in construction time, I built a station near the road. I can confirm that you can actually fabricate items on a ceiling.

ok so there are these little things called extenders which you can use for running power long distances instead of your platform chain system

Ya, I was just about to say that. You can make them in the small fabricator with one copper after unlocking them.

If you are using the mineral extractor, small platforms will actually cover more distance per tankful. They are less convenient to place though, as you have to move the platform and then test the cable distance.
