Proposed Great Wall base community -Eissentam
I started a series recently called Earth to NMS where I take earthly places and recreate them in the game. I love historical structures and the challenge of recreating them. First was Frank Wright’s Fallingwater on a floating island and now the Great Wall of China.
Some of you may have seen a previous post where I asked if it would be possible to build a continuous wall around a planet. I’ve learned it’s not possible with the various limitations of the game. One issue is bases can’t physically touch. But that doesn’t mean you can’t build an *adjacent* wall or any sort of base nearby. It is a beautiful paradise planet with floating tassel lilies and mountains. Sadly I found out after a while it does have electrical disturbances but they are infrequent.
If you want to build a wall section, I’d recommend placing your base computer a little less than 1000u from my wall since that would allow you to get as close as possible to the wall while still allowing you to go 1000u in the opposite direction. Multiple bases could branch off in various directions. Technically my tallest tower is beyond my base boundary so maybe that will allow another base to get even closer. Not sure if anyone would be interested in this idea but feel free to stop by and build if you like.
PS, don’t think of it as a trump wall or segregation. That makes me sad. Think of this as a highway or trade route or the main habitation for a species that likes to be physically connected to their community. Thanks for stopping by!
