Thank you Kieve.

Alright, base is finally updated, and screenshots to match. Had to give it a final pass to make sure I didn't miss anything. Enjoy!

Its a great fob. We love using it i think we have two of your towers downloaded as well. Very inspiring :)

I've had an update for 9.X ready to go for a while, and just forgetting to upload it. But hearing storage is now borked, well... can't have that now can we?
Tragic Teo 14 Mar, 2019 @ 1:50pm 
Requires update. Cargo box's for storage that are currently in place are now the HV/SV cargo boxes which only hold 125 Volume vs BA/CV Cargo boxes which hold up to 16000 Volume. Otherwise great little FoB! Personally I took out the farm plots, changed cannon turrets to Flak Turrets and used the farm space for Cargo Containers. Works great! Hope to see more from you :)

I cannot stress enough how much I love this base design.

Nice little base, space tiger! :)

For the grow plots: You can do the same as I did with my starter bunker, just remove the plots and replace them with the steel grates/walkway blocks. They are super cheap, you don't end up with a hole in the base and they can be easily removed and replaced with grow plots should the need arise. You can even leave the grow light in since it has low requirements.

Ah, I see. That is helpful!
-I'll try to give more consideration for HV/SV "container" units in the future. Should improve ease-of-use pathing in my BPs as well. I typically don't use them myself, but I understand why some people would, very handy!
-I probably should've relocated the medical stuff to begin with. Plenty of space upstairs, if you discard the living space deco / RP elements (not that I would, I like my bases to feel like a place you could actually live in comfortably, but priority should be on useful devices first at least).
-Pinnacle is intended as a mid-game "foothold" outpost, not a starter, but I do take the grow-plot thing into consideration with my starter BAs. :) Still a good tip.

Thank you very much for the input. Always happy to hear how I can improve my work.

Kieve, I removed the two containers upstairs to make room for a Cargo-12 instead, removed lab table downstairs and moved around the devices to make room for all 4 medical devices. Also, added lever to force the elevator doors to stay open.

And what I typically do with starter bases, I removed the grow plots from the bp, so I was able to manufacture it as fast as possible ingame, since I otherwise would need a food processer to make them, which means having to make another base, before manufacturing a base that comes with grow plots.

Rekalty, if I may ask, what were the changes? I enjoy constructive feedback!
Rekalty 14 Nov, 2018 @ 2:46pm 
Lovely little base, only had to make minor changes to make it fit my needs, thanks!
Kieve  [author] 28 Oct, 2018 @ 9:37pm 
Thank you folks :) Appreciate the kind words!

Beautiful base and great design. Love it. Nice job!
DanaWild 28 Oct, 2018 @ 1:50am 
Really like youre design :):steamhappy:

Grow Downward - I love it! I had to move a wall and make the door bigger for my SV, but other than that itis a good starting point for a base.
Kieve  [author] 25 Oct, 2018 @ 3:24pm 
Lee Andrew - Very pleased to hear it! As it happens, Pinnacle's original use was just that - a small self-contained moon base. Hopefully it serves you well!
Alastria 25 Oct, 2018 @ 3:14pm 
Superb design, specially at early stages of the game this will be nice for the next server wipe. That said, I made this my "moon base" for now for a safe logout area. Really love this in terms of funactionality, yet such small space used. Thanks for sharing!
Kieve  [author] 25 Oct, 2018 @ 2:25pm 
Haro - Thanks :) Didn't realize my style was that distinctive, but looking like a mini-Argentspire probably helps I guess?

Z - Wouldn't call it luxury but I'm glad it meets your approval!
Haro 25 Oct, 2018 @ 7:13am 
You look at it and you know it is a Kieve :)
CrazyZ 24 Oct, 2018 @ 11:38pm 
A small luxurious early game base - that´s something I´ve always wanted to build, but failed. I usually end up building things bigger than planned. I´m amazed on how detailled you built with minimum block count. Well done, Sir!
Kieve  [author] 24 Oct, 2018 @ 10:11pm 
Re: 'Classified' project - Postponed for re-evaluation. Lots of pieces, not certain how to assemble them into something cohesive. That one's still under construction. ;)
OneEco 24 Oct, 2018 @ 9:34pm 
@Kieve - Well done.

I need to start making inexpensive stuff eventually, I'm so caught up on the super build sector.

About the creations gathering on the shelf, how's the progress on the classified one we spoke about? The one I went bonkers about.
Kieve  [author] 24 Oct, 2018 @ 7:52pm 
XCaliber - thanks for the encouragement. :) Maybe I should post more often... still too many creations gathering dust on my shelf.

scroogestime - I wouldn't call this one 'hidden' exactly, but I'm sure no one would expect an extensive underground lair from such a relatively small BA ;)
scroogestime 24 Oct, 2018 @ 7:35pm 
Nice Idea! I like lower, below ground bases, and how they are hidden so neatly. Great Work!
XCaliber 24 Oct, 2018 @ 2:07pm 
Yes! Good to see a Kieve build hittin the Workshop! Great functional Art as always
Kieve  [author] 24 Oct, 2018 @ 1:09pm 
Thanks guys :) I still feel like there's ways I can improve this one though, so suggestions & critique are always welcome.
jrandall 24 Oct, 2018 @ 11:47am 
Lovely base with good function. Also great idea to extend the elevator down to expand the base. As always excellent work!
Kakarotto 24 Oct, 2018 @ 8:32am 
Looks so simple and yet so beautifully detailed. Thanks for sharing. Regards.
Kieve  [author] 23 Oct, 2018 @ 11:14pm 
Hah, landing pads... Myrmidon, you could construct an entire underground hangar and industrial complex if you were so inclined ;) Thanks though.

Seph - you can salvage that much just from one of the Titan wrecks, or a 'docile' POI like an Unknown structure. I realize that's not necessarily a guarantee in MP, but hopefully shouldn't present too much of an obstacle.

"It laid dust' he said...
"Not cozy" he said….

It's sure cozy enough it if's cold outside!


Btw, where do you get those 115 sathium at level 10?
Vendor or POI?
Just asking / food for thought

Either way, added to my Vertigo Cluster - Habitats Collection. :)
Myrmidon 23 Oct, 2018 @ 10:48pm 
Looks like it needs a landing pad.....(j/k). Excellent minimal building once agai. Thumbs up and thank you for sharing.
