Yes that's a mine. It's from the "Mines" mod.

@@KSleuth24 thanks man, sorry if its a bit of a silly question.

Thanks! Yes the road markings are from a mod. It's from "[sd] floorpaint (Continued)". It gives a decent selection of shapes that act as floor markers so you can play around with different ideas to get something like I did.

@KSleuth24 oh, thanks for replying! I will definitely be checking this mod out.

Wow! 450 pawns is insane. Not sure how the game would run with that many pawns. If you're trying to replicate that, you probably want a mod where you can clone pawns so you can reach such a high number easily. Thats my only suggestion, I usually keep my colonies around 30-40 pawns so anything higher than that is beyond me.

Haha! Don't expose me like that. Sometimes accidents happen on an ice sheet base & you need a quick solution.

Glad you like it! Happy new year, wishing you all the best for this year :)

Thanks for the nice comment, & yes, I do love stone chunks, not sure where I'd be without them.

Thanks! Dealing with raids was challenging to start with but eventually I got enough good gear that it wasn't an issue.

What difficult do u play and how many colonists do you have? Do people die?

I play on Strive to Survive, it's a nice balance when doing cool builds with plenty of action to keep it engaging. I ended the colony with around 20 colonists & of course people die, I lose colonists all the time, even more specifically in this playthrough being on an ice sheet.

Haha! I kind of didn't know what to do with it so I just left it all alone :(

I usually play on "Strive to Survive". It has a nice balance that allows me to build cool bases & stay engaged with raids & disasters. Thanks for your nice comment, much appreciated. :)

@@KSleuth24 Cheers ^^ Left a suggestion on one of the comments on your celtic vid. Would like to have your thoughts. In the meantime, "Bien Joué !" from France :D

Try starting off with very simple designs & something you can defend easily. I usually start with something simple & it'll naturally flow into something more complex. Take your time learning the game & you'll learn what works for you. You can only get better from mistakes so keep on trying different ideas. :)

@ Thanks for the good ideas

@ also what mods did u use on that run

There's too many for me to list but to keep it short & simple. I used the "Outer Rim" mods (They're Star Wars mods). "Vanilla Expanded" mods & lots of quality of life mods such as "Rimfridge" & "OgreStack". If you've seen something of interesting in the timelapse that you can't identify, just ask & I'll let you know which mod it's from.

@@KSleuth24 thank you I’ll check those mods out

I use Vanometric Generators from the "Vanometric Generators" mod.

Thank you! 🙏

Yeah you're right, it was complete hell. But it was worth it.

That's a great idea. I'll definitely incorporate that with future timelapses. Thank for your suggestion.

@@KSleuth24 cant wait to see your colony up close.

I used the "Mines" mod to dig up chunks then cut them into bricks. I started by using the slate chunks on the map then changed to granite when I was able to allocate the time to dig up enough chunks. You can also use deep drilling for to gather chunks which is a vanilla feature. At the end of the timelapse, all my walls are granite walls that are painted.

Not particularly. It's pretty standard in terms of gameplay except it looks really nice.

Maybe it's good to preserve a nice temperature for the inner cells

Challenge accepted. It wont be my next video as I'm nearly finished with my current playthrough. However my next playthrough will be a city. Is there anything in particular you'd like to see in the city?

@@KSleuth24 a Park, would be amezing WITH Gauranlen trees here a there, Greatings from LA VICTORIA, LIMA, PERÚ 🗿

That's a great idea. I'll definitely build an amazing park. Thanks for your suggestions.

@@KSleuth24 Looking forward to that B)

@@KSleuth24 Add a vehicle mod as well so the roads will be useful

Sounds like a great idea, definitely give it a go. It'll look really cool built into a cave system. Best of luck with the colony.

I use the mod "Utility Columns" & built columns that also act as a light source so the roof doesn't collapse & the room is well lit.

You're correct with that observation. Slight flaw in my design which impacts the travel distance significantly. In the end I went for what looks good instead of what works the best 🤣

​@@KSleuth24я вас понимаю, почти всегда красота и эстетическое удовольствие от базы является важнее, чем функционал 😂

Absolutely will be able to run it. Your specs are only slightly less than mine & I have no issues at all. Just note that the game runs off the CPU & during the late game if there's too many colonists & animals you may experience significant frame drops. There's also plenty of mods on the Steam Workshop that aid the games performance. However if you use way too many mods, you might also run into performance issues.

@KSleuth24 thank you for the information, im already play the game for 2 days now, really fun game , but my colony is on disaster now because im low on medic after a freaking 2 raid at the same time Lmao

@@Arkkukie Good to hear you're enjoying the game. Keep trying & you'll have a great colony one day. Remember that the game isn't always fair & that's the best part.

Great questions. I do both. It really depends on the map I get. Sometimes I go in with an idea & other times I just freestyle it. Whenever I plan ahead I usually end up changing ideas as my playthrough develops.

why the "~"?

It's done using the "Progress Renderer" mod. Look for it on the Steam Workshop & read the description for everything you need to know.

It's the mod "[Ling]Move Steam Geyser". It allows you to move the position of steam geysers.

@@KSleuth24 Thank You!!!!

Sure! To make the hexagon shape, for the straight lines it's 11 tiles horizontal. Then to do the diagonal parts, you go one tile outward diagonally of the horizontal walls & place 2 walls vertically & repeat that until you've done it 4 times. After the 4th time, place 1 wall instead of 2. Then repeat the same pattern going towards the other horizontal walls. I recommend trying out different dimensions to create exactly what you're looking for.

Ty!!!, i really love the bedrooms you did there i always wanted to make a really big room for each of my pawns keep the good work and ty again.😁

I've used way to many mods to list them all. If you've seen something modded in the timelapse that you're interested in, feel free to ask & I'll let you know the mod it's from :)

@@KSleuth24 The crater youre in, is that a map form mod? Never saw such a thing spawn in vanilla

It's from the "Geological Landforms" mod. It gives you a wide variety of different map generations.

Thanks! You definitely should give it a go.

No gameplay unfortunately :( Just a timelapse of my colony.

@@KSleuth24 Here's a idea (if you can invest the time) : "narrative making-of" your builds ;)

I'll look into that. Do you have any suggestions for what could be a good way to do it?

@@KSleuth24 To be honnest, it realy depends on how comfortable you are with storytelling, camera work and editing. It's a huge time investment but well worth it imho. And I don't beleive there's a "good way" to do it. Creativity all depends on your inspirations, style and sensabilities... I guess what i'm trying to say is : give it a whirl, see if you like it, whatever "it" may be ;)

@@philipharris4230 storytelling?

Crater map from the Geological Landforms mod

How's the new colony doing ?

@X3N3O thxs for asking my guy. Made my day

@@joemono4727 no problem

@@X3N3O not sure if my other comment was erased by the KZbin, (don't see it anymore) Long story short, trying to get a paraplegic raid to happen. So pretty good

@@joemono4727 yeah it was erased, but great for you man
