Akholestis - a completely colonized system

Description

Welcome to Akholestis System!

A complete solar system with multiple settlements and stations as well as an own back story! Every room is filled, every screen has a meaning, no block-mods, you can play this all vanilla if you want to (Apart from the planets – you need those!)

too dark for your taste? Try out Acolin System, another, fully colonized system:

Thanks to the awesome Ekuah the files should now be properly downloadable! Thanks to everyone who helped in finding the problem!

„Akholestis is a strategically important system at the frontier of the Akhinnae Empire - it's rich in resources as well as at the doorstep of several FTL-jumpnodes. The neighbouring Assu'ne Republic is undertaking aggressive raids against imperial forces in the system and thus there is no normal colonial presence but a series of heavily fortified bases in which civilians and military have to squeeze in alike. The living conditions are lousy, the space is sparse - but the payment for just one complete cycle of work in the Akholestis System will be a small fortune.”

This is Version 1.0 of an explorable world that you can visit in survival or creative.



SURVIVAL START

If you start in survival, you will spawn in the FTL Ring Station and be able to find a civilian FTL ship in the ring. You can use her to get to the main planets.

IMPORTANT: for performance reasons airtightness has been disabled. find oxygen bottles soon, for example in the starter ship, the "Envoy"

Most stations and ships have GPS coordinates in the remotes or in the text screens, so you can discover new locations step by step.

resources should be evenly distributed among the stations and the ships.

The hub of this system is the city of Alen on Akholestis I – from there you can plan your every journey to all the stations, cities and scenes in the system.

Features

- four different major ground settlements

- more than 10 different space stations

- over a dozen individual space craft

- multiple small vehicles, tanks, drop pods and cargo ships

MOST IMPORTANT

Tons of different backstories, crafted into the world via messages, reports, orders, letters and scenes. Visit the capital city, the gas mining settlement or the scrap station, go wherever you like and read private messages, military reports, shifts, schedules and letters from everyone. Find new scenes and places by uncovering all the GPS coordinates in the text panels!

Hey! No, they cannot be added, they are their own save, if you will. You can load it and play it as a different world. (this particular one is over 5 years old, btw, I suggest picking a newer one)

Ok, well, now I have to revisit this. Y'all sold me on it.

ok - went down to the planet, came back up, followed some plot points and here i am, docked at an orbital station pondering my next move....
i have, as usual, explored many awesomely designed ships, stations and buildings, and encountered all kinds of stories, some that made me smile and others that made me feel the gravity of the situation in this system (unintended space related pun there ;-))
So now i have some GPS markers for which i most certainly want to explore, but i feel i need to prepare - i just don't know what i will find when i get there..... (feeling the darker vibes and they are great!)
So yes, absolutely awesome stuff as ever, many thanks! :-)

Well i'm 2 or 3 hours in and i followed a story line to a scene which actually had me feeling both sadness and awe at the spectacle that was before me. Very much like the feeling one would get from a climactic scene in a well produced movie, but it didn't need any epic music to stir the emotions (i always keep music off), or any clever camera work, just some captains' logs and some GPS markers and suddenly i was in the middle of this epic scene.
Stunning! (and that's without even mentioning the fantastic ships i had explored on my way there)
Definitely a little darker than what i have seen of Gautus so far (12 hours in), which again adds that nice movie vibe, like two movies set in the same universe but following different story arcs.
So yes, i am already very impressed, and looking forward to the continued exploring, and i will report back in 6-12 hours or so when i expect i will have seen many more awesome things!
Many thanks again for a world to get immersed in :-)

Nice work but you wont mind if i take in my own ship to explore it.... https://steamuserimages-a.akamaihd.net/ugc/771726276489499248/F9F32CD7E5B4D41254DD4D058ACF5A911699D939/ Gate was just enough to let it in... :steamhappy::steamhappy::steamhappy::steamhappy:

I may count my story in your system if you allow... it was funny to dock at refuelling station I still wonder who is refueling who... https://steamuserimages-a.akamaihd.net/ugc/771726276489564743/EF39546550072C7D82721EA59916B704C26474FD/
