Decided to experiment with the effects of covering the entire map with concrete then walling it off.
Results were.... interesting.

Here's the save: http://www.mediafire.com/download/qa7x4eocacxc6g2/Peaceful.7z

it reminds me of that episode of Spongebob where everything was chromed

good read

just wait till the next update.. we COULD see some new artwork

Then challenge accepted sir.  En garde!

mine is coming along nicely.. except if you get fire inside your thick walls.. it hurts.. a lot!! lol

By barrack, do you mean that style of living (as in multiple beds in the same big room)?

Also, by waffles do you mean those mazes of sandbags?

yes and yes

i have been reading around on the forums and some people where talking about challenges.. so here is my challenge to you all!!!

Town Challenge:

RULES:

1. you are NOT allowed to build into a mountain

2. you are allowed 1 solar panel per building

3. you are allowed to use as many geysers as you can

6. get  a noble to live in the castle

5. (optional) create a walled in town with a double gate with walls at least 3 deep

HARDCORE MODE

1. create the town where you first land and make at least 1 of your starting people a noble and keep him alive till all goals are met


good luck to anyone wanting to try this out!! please reply with pics of your mighty town!!

this is bringing out everyone's sadistic side lol

i shall have to try this

the game atm is in pre-alpha.. and as such.. has very little/no optimizations in it

Yes, the more turrets you build, the more raiders will spawn.

its more based on your length of play and how many colonists you have. but the number of turrets is accounted aswell

the goal is that in the long run there will be a launcher with an auto updater

i believe that my base is one of the biggest on here lol

NO enemy has been able to get in

I use 2 x 2 rooms with blue carpets, standing lamps, and 1 bed. I find putting carpets and smooth stone works best for my hallways, with green or red carpets in buildings themselves. Oddly enough, my prisoners have larger and nicer rooms than my colonists - they get an extra 2 squares and a flower pot.

EDIT: The gamemode you're talking about is Chill Cassie Classic. She's not that easy though, you should use blasting charges for at least one raid to get good weapons even if you want to play fair.

i go even smaller

1x4 with a bed/lamp/door with metal floors..(carpets once researched) and i have no issues

if you manage to starve them out they will leave the raiders and just wander.. so try to capture them in a trap and wait them out

if you have any ideas on more security buildings please add them to the suggestion forums.

not bad lol
