Figure I could make a thread out of this to leach ideas from other people and hear what I'm doing is shit.
New Amsterdam

First thing I'm adding, and posting to this thread; a bit of weird interior work for the first plate. It's meant to be a gibberish sign for the edges of the "subway."

If that is a station and those are indeed individual pieces that are rotating around the center, I think it's super cool looking! If I'm wrong it's still cool looking I just don't know what I'm looking at lol

The gibberish sign is indeed written out in perfect gibberish---I can't understand a word! A+ for you!

Yeah, it's a station. I sort of want to put some more stuff on the plates, but I don't just want to detail one side. I'm really kinda annoyed by how a lot of people do stations, where it's really well detailed on top, and has nothing on the bottom.

I'm trying to make a few "taxis" to ferry people between the plates. Just wondering what people think of them.

The slabs give them all a bit of a flat look. I'd think it'd look better with some more angles and stuff, especially towards the front of the two thinner ones. The central sections on the ones with wings (Instead of engine pod-looking things) are two big and bulbous compared to the wings.

Personally I like the boxy looking one the best. They l look nice though. I like builds with Slabs mostly because I'm not so good with them

l look nice though

Your point?

 

[Anubis Evo]

Your point?

I was on my mobile, typos sometimes happen

But it is probably true. I do look pretty nice

Ohhhh rotating outer sections that spin at different speeds.
I neeeeeeeeed this in my life.

Its like having a spinning loading wheel around you at all times!
EXCEPT IN SPACE

(Can I put a landfill on top of the outer ones again? :D:p)

 

[Jaaskinal]

I added some lights in the subway, planning on adding some stuff on top of the plates next.

I like your attitude, but also, I really like the idea here. Game mechanics also require that the mechanics are hidden inside that central dome, and that's an extra cool feature. You could even make it so, that build blocks are kept securely inside the central dome, therefore it's leaning towards a society where the people who have power are only allowed to the central dome. Are the different zones sorted into society classes too? Small middle rotating plates would be for better people and farther out would be suburbs for poor? I don' t know, but inspiring!

It's seeing your shuttles again that reminds me to pester Schine to put 1/4, 1/2 and 3/4 slabs for the other shapes as well. Especially wedges.

That was mostly the plan, but I'm sort of finding that difficult, which is why I'm procrastinating with the subway.

 

[Jaaskinal]

I didn't really like the look of the subway, and I really like beacons. Beacons and logic.

I did like the orangness of the other way though. Need to figure out a way to keep that and the beacons.

 

[Gasboy]

Man, spinning AND flashing lights? I'm getting dizzy just thinking about it. XD

May I make a suggestion? Hook a few of those flashing lights up to one of the randomizers. For a bit of glitchy character.

Too much spinning for me to handle

That brings me way back to 1985.

I need a gif of it spinning to turn it into a quality meme
