    Yeah mines more focused on the design and execution. Take a walk around and discover things. That being said I think I am going to cut down the video length after seeing how short Sabers was.

    I wanted to make sure I could do anything I needed; not accidentally get locked out of something or quickly move to a ship and whatnot. Its not big deal really unless I run into problems downloading them.
    Good idea, I got stuck in the ambassador station on the dev server. There's something to be said for the builders who thought to include faction permission blocks.[DOUBLEPOST=1412755897,1412755718][/DOUBLEPOST]Videos will definitely help. I really think some of the best trade station entries were overlooked in favor of the most famous one. You really need to see the interior of those stations to get a good idea of what they're about. Some have cool looking silhouettes, but are extremely bare or poorly designed inside.

    Out of curiosity, what happened to the external turrets on my submission?
    They fell off on import, or werent present at all.
    I assume they were built in 'ignore docking area' active?

    I had many stations that had some issues on importing,
    but didn't note anything on your station,
    so maybe they just weren't in the blueprint.


    Half the bases don't even have pictures available. This is making it awfully hard to be able to decide which ones I want to vote for.
    The locations beside the picture represent the location on the testserver, feel free to connect and fly around to examine them.

    I'm also currently preparing a Bulk-Import set, but as some too similar names got to be synced with the polls first, I need to wait for the poll to be finished first.

    That's odd. They stayed attached on the copy that I spawned to test the [redacted] mechanism.
    Which reminds me. Did you enjoy the 'hidden surprises'?

    You shouldn't make decisions based off pictures anyway. Builders will obviously only use pictures that present their creations in the best way possible, therefore skewing the impression of how it might actually look in a "real-world" scenario.
    You'll be seeing those stations more ingame than on screenshots in the future, don't base your decisions on pictures.

    I sometimes had trouble finding the hidden stuff on some stations.
    It took a few days to import them and examine them, (partly because of the different formats supplied,)
    so I cant really remember every detail, made some notes and a rough 'numeric' voting to classify them for later final voting.

    Will look into this when going over them again =)

    Looks like pirate stations get picked quite near Halloween, perfect time for those pirates to build new stations while we hand out candy! :P

    so many good stations, but looks like the pirates where given small stations, maybe they didn't stole enough or don't have military power for capture bigger stations. kkk

    I'm curious as to how many neutral stations there are going to be to vote for.

    HeadvsBrick's entry is rather big

    I'm curious as to how many neutral stations there are going to be to vote for.

    Probably upwards of 1000

    Also my first use of multi quote :p

    By 'hidden suprises' I mean booby traps, by the way.
    The whole point of my station is that it's virtually impossible to loot unless you're really lucky or know it's weaknesses, but it has enough plex storages to keep a large faction sated for a long time.

    Sphere-201 has only 1 of it's 16 turrets (guess the others 'fell off'). The latest version in the downloads has more interior finishing etc. If a fully functional version is used I'd be really careful getting into it's range.

    there is only two logic things in my station.
    *
    "Epsilon Pirate Base" by - starhaiden.
    what do you think of it? it has a defence system, when you press a button it activates heat seeking missile that are fired up from the station.

    ...Very little is as soul crushing as discovering that the station you put hours into was ranked 4th last out of 15...
