Thank you! Glad you found us.

Ya. I am a "do the simplest thing first that works, then extend".

Oh, boy...that video was recorded long before the latest version of Space Engineers, and I have been out of the game for a while. I do know a couple folks from our community who may be able to answer that -- lemme see if they will chime in...

We used a number of quality of life mods during this iteration of the server including this one, called Colorful Icons.

Thanks @suckish9237

Ah...once know you, a Jedi will you be

Thank you! Ya, for building the replica of the restaurant, we definitely need the rectangular foundation.

Well, you will love the update deployed yesterday. Those Silver Fir Branches are now GONE!....GONE!...gone.....

Wow! Good to know. A couple days ago the thought popped into my head, "resin may become significant", so I started stocking it away again.

Thanks, @siraulu1 ! Thanks for allowing me to build on your plot. =0) I am enjoying working on your place with you, as payment.

I am, and it does. I am in the Pacific time zone. So far I have not experienced poor performance from any of the regions -- I play on all three.

@twooldguyz oh, neat! I'll keep that in mind for the next wipe. The NA server is very crowded 😅

It it indeed. Our area is a bit less crowded, but quite a bit busier than the Selene was.

Ya, it does help. I know the Pax Dei EA packages from Mainframe are on sale now, if that helps.

@twooldguyz unfortunately it's not in the budget at the moment I will just have to maximize the space of my 1 plot

@@twooldguyz any advice you could give me would be appreciated

Game advice? As you are getting started? There are likely many things we could guide you in. It would be easiest to do that in-game. On which shard are you playing?

@twooldguyz I'm playing on Apollo

I hesitate sharing that knowledge -- you seem a bit old to start the training. It might lead to you going to the dark side. =0)

I often forget to consider that option...that would have made a difference. I usually avoid doing that, but it can help when doing the finish work. In most games like this, shifting off a snap point can later lead to things failing to align properly and maintain stability.

Good insight! I do put in a bit more support in the next video, and now in Proving Grounds I do quite a bit more in adding more of that type of support. Ideally I like to have a little "clutter" like that in the build, but the higher you go, the more of it you need.

Hehe...love it.

If you are referring to the dead spot in the middle of the four plots, rotating blocks into that area will certainly close it up a bit. It isn't as usable as you would like, but that might work.

Certainly! Glad you enjoyed it.

Rofar has told us about you! I do not have you aligned with anyone yet for who to pair with. If you ARE able to join us in the morning, we will get you set up. Looking forward to meeting you!

@@twooldguyz Yes, I am currently nestled next to Rofar until wipe tomorrow. I am currently in Texas (For Times sake) My brief background. I am 60 years old and 100% Disabled Navy Vet, Special Weapons Special Warfare. I am home most days as I cannot work. so basically, I have all time in the world. I could not get on this morning due to doctors appts for my wife. Tomorrow,, I will be able to get on after the wipe. I am looking forward to meeting you guys as well!!

Glad you enjoy our videos! I believe the stone pillar unlocks at level 8 ( paxdei.gaming.tools/recipes/recipe_building_piece_pillar_foundation )

Well...we tried several things like that on our current location, and nothing worked. We have now practiced several times laying down the 'honeycomb' 7-plot sections at scale, resetting the centers, and it has worked very well.

Greetings...and welcome!

Thank you! and glad to hear. We will see how useful it is on November 5, eh?

Thank you. Hope you find it helpful.

Questions concerning plot placement? If so, I would be curious to know if you read or heard anything along those lines...

@@twooldguyz Yeah, we know if you place 4 plots together where they SHOULD meet in a perfect 4 corners. They don't. But form a small, dead space in the middle of all 4 plots. This dead space is unclaimed, meaning you can't build in it. I find this unacceptable and should be fixed.

@@LesterSuggs Ya, it would be nice if they would square up well. I do understand the challenges, though. From the software perspective, I can see the benefits successfully deliver based on how it works, and the challenge of trying to maintain those benefits while addressing the issue. After playing more with the "center plot with six surrounding" approach, I have come to appreciate it more, and am not so concerned with "squaring up" the plots any more. I do have one more video on this topic coming soon, which shows a perfectly round central plot with 6 identical surrounding plots, all with maximum geometric area, and NO GAPS!

@@twooldguyz We found a similar approach when we founded our current village. We used 2 plots in the center and surrounded them with 8.

@@LesterSuggs Ah! Now that is something I did NOT try.

That is GREAT! We are finding an increasing number of "old guys" (and gals) who are full-time gamers. Glad you found us.

Well thank you, @tommybaldwin5645. Glad you are enjoying the content

Thank you for the feedback. I do try to keep the background low, but may have failed in my editing this time. I have the raw files, so will see if I can replace with an improved version.

Well, I was hoping to be able to upload an improved version, but I would have to delete this one (forever) and upload it as a new video. For those having similar experience, I apologize. This shouldn't be an issue going forward.

You are right, and something I noticed as soon as I had access to foundations. I still try to line them up as best I can, to aid in clean conveyors. ;0)

Well thank you! Glad you found us. As much as I enjoy putting them together, it is even better knowing others enjoy viewing them.

Glad you found us! Welcome aboard.

Hey, @justinmay6901!! Good to hear from you!

Whell...technology, you know. ;0) Glad to have you along.

Great to hear from you, my friend! You have been missed. We still have the dedicated server available.

Good point. I do not anticipate needing them long, so I started with just what I needed at the moment. We will see if that turns out a wise choice, or whether I should have put more down.

Well, I am a little disappointed. I was hoping the birds had some significance. As for the "tick", I actually got an achievement from it. =0)

Welcome! Glad to have you along.

Glad you are enjoying them

Well...that's my story, and I'm sticking to it. ;0) I roleplay my series' as if I have a crew in the game worlds recording a reality show. =0)

Glad you enjoyed it! Nice to have you along. Being the inspiration for this build, you can keep my progress "honest". =0)

Ya, I do like that shader source.

I am glad you enjoyed it, but feel I didn't do enough to showcase Lecidr's place. I plan to return some day.

So glad to hear from you, and that you found us!! Lecidr's build (likely the whole clan) was so enjoyable. Having taken the "nickel tour", I may need to plan a trip for the full tour, maybe with audio for real-time commentary.

You're welcome any time !
