CLOSED* CONTEST: Default Stations Submission

[Criss]

I've been working on this thing:


Shields and power are in place with expansion plans, administrative area type stuff. The docking areas are next, followed by the middle and lower tiers. You bet there's going to be socioeconomic correlations with the tiers and visual aesthetic patterns. I'm aiming for no larger than 550m^3 with 90% being within 350^3, and calling it a self sustaining city station of sorts. I hope to have it done in the next few days.

Although it looks incredibly awesome with the white and black, the devs might want it switched to blue lights. I can see you are using some of it for measuring of course.

wow, now I get an idea how bit that asteroid will be.

The docking/landing area is about as big as my bridge I am currently polishing.

I love it.
Very unique and nice.
But I worry about it would more get a spawn than something that repeats over and over again due to block counts - nothing that players may take (how many crystals and plex-lights did you use?)

 

[SmilingDemon]

The blue ice crystals should be fine i guess ... the ore and the new crystals for the crafting system should be avoided .. or did i understnad that wrong?
(if i am wrong i have to redo my station!)

Slight update. Was extremely busy today, so didn't really get around to do much.
Added satellite dish, exterior docking area, and two top entrances into the station. Exterior still has plenty of barren space for more additions.

Spoiler: Click for Pictures

comes along nicely i would say. ... if it doesn´t slowes everything down when finished i definitly want to use that!

Started working on my own station yesterday, going to be a pirate station. I might build some more at the bottom so it's more of a spire/tower with a main hub/hangar and a defensive ring.

Planning to make 4 escape pods that work with logic and maybe a lockdown system that closes all doors in the hangar/main hub if the external doors open while the second hangar doors are open too (no one likes vacuum, right?). Adding flashing red lights to that makes it even cooler ^^

I love it! And i definitly would fear pirates that can upkeep something that shiny, elegant and hightechy (and that would be my only complain about if i would complain, which i do not do :P )

 

[YibYag]

Am i going overboard again?

Spoiler

Plan is to either leave it sort of like that or have the guild find it and build a city in it...

It is approximately
460 x 210 x 210

 

[SmilingDemon]

YibYag Overboard ? definitly ... but its a very nice space brick otherwise !

 

[starhaiden]

yibyag how big is that it doesn't look that big from the outside but inside when you look at the thing in the middle it makes it things around it look bigger

If I had to guess, around 125 blocks wide 250 long 180 high?

 

[SmilingDemon]

tenk11kamikaza ... already the pictures look very beautyful ... i am pretty sure i want to see that in game! I will take a closer look later!

 

[YibYag]

If I had to guess, around 125 blocks wide 250 long 180 high?

Its actually 400*300*250 :p

I could furbish it to look like a derelict-but-in-a-pristine-condition station...

tenk11kamikaza holy shit that detail O_O

I see my mistake, thought those were the realistic hardened blocks . My guess would be 500 long, 250 wide and 360 high ^^. It's closer I guess.

 

[Mariux]

That's it. I'm not working on this my station sucks compared to other's... Feels like I'm just wasting time.

dont give up so easily ,my station was a pile of first class dirt,it was absolute mud :p .. before i started adding more random pipes,simple boxes with hazard stripes,lights,windows,some antenas,etc.
problem with your station,and many others,is the main box shape,chamfer those corners,cut off some shapes from that box,and as always,randomness is the beauty of nature ,your station will be as good as all others mate

May I present my second station, the Trade Guild Repair Station

Features a large shipyard with integrated repair beam system, large station complex with hangars, gardens, observatories, control rooms, medical stations and of course: flashing lights!

Download on Starmade Dock

Took me all day to build. I'll explain how it all works:
At the back of the station there is an shipyard with a cool interior:

You hit a switch in the shipyard and repair beams activate, lights come on etc.:

Beams On!

Here's some pics of the station features such as the Hangar Bays, Observatories, Gardens, Medical Stations and all that cool stuff inside:

Built it all myself

....
There are 4 missile launchers on the station. They fire multiple blue tracking missiles in a swarm with each shot,

...did...did you just put heat-seeking missiles(D1000/D1000/whatever) on a trade-guild station? If so, that's a deliciously evil troll. I can just see the red squares with "so-and-so has declared war on the Trading guild!" scrolling across my screen...

This.... is incredible... and this is me surrendering the only way a Canadian knows how to:

[YibYag]

Made up an alien numbering system for the pillars. I wonder what this was, data storage? Control station? A weapon?

Spoiler

The great and benevolent Trading Guild has "obtained" the NAV coordinates and is already sending surveyor teams to this mystery...

Station will feature two gravity directions because why not :D
