This build is amazing, all the details i love it.

Hi RandomRohirrimRider, the blueprint starts at the lowest block of the space station, and builds upwards. The structure is 63 blocks tall, so there's room to build it in the sky, which is what I did. Definitely build up a bit and then place the blueprint cornerstone if you want the station to be in the sky. I used a temporary narrow pole of blocks to get to the right height.

If you type // into the chat window, the game will show you your coordinates separated by commas. The middle number is your height. Since the world is 256 blocks high, the highest you could start the blueprint is at 190 blocks. Do not start the blueprint any higher than that or it won't fit in the world! When I was creating the space station, I started the build at 148 blocks in the air. That way I had options to build above it if needed.

Hope this helps! :)

Does this automatically build in the sky? or should i build up and then place cornerstone

this is absolutely mindblowing. my goodness, the details on every deck is just fantastic. keep going, dude

This is just an incredible build. The amount of detail is mind boggling! Love it!

Awesome, Silver! Love all the thought and detail! THIS is what I'm talking about!!

I am not sure how to read the ingame gps but it says (-1073.3, 116.7, -2477.1)
I removed all of the lower ring lava blocks, it is staying an even 70 during the day and goes down to 59 at night. Easy peasy, but the upper ring I haven't touched it's 112 on the floor and 11 at the ceiling by the windows. I live in creator mode, so no biggie - I still absolutely love the design!

Mikhala, You could remove a few hardened lava blocks in key areas. Don't remove too many though or you'll go from too hot to too cold. If you have a stripe or checker board pattern with those blocks that should work.

BTW, test out your altitude using the // command to see how high up you are. The lowest blocks of the space station in my world is 150 blocks high (measured from the bottom of the world). That still leaves a few blocks above the station until it reaches the world's ceiling.

It's strange that you're having issues in the ocean. That's where I'm building a big colony spaceship, and I'm getting no overheating issues. I'm going to test out different heating methods before I publish though.

Silver, thanks for looking into it. I noticed the heat in the controls/command center area in the outer ring. It was 178 degrees. I built my space station out in the deep ocean over open water and about 40 blocks upward. I am wondering if I should remove some of the lava rocks to bring down the temperature.

HI Mikhala, I've had a look into the overheating issue you mentioned and I think I've figured out what's going on...

Each Biome seems to have a default maxiumum cold/hot value (probably a base variable plus/minus a certain amount of temperature). For instance, heated floors in an ocean biome are not quite as hot as those in a Savannah, and have no temperature issues. I would guess the same applies for biomes even colder than ocean as well. But there's no need to build in the arctic.

Plus there seems to be a bug in some of the hotter biomes such as Savannah, where a slightly higher "default" temperature is applied in some (but not all) areas of this biome. In those cases the base temperature can be a bit hotter both at ground level and also up high. Even standing on basic ground blocks in those areas will show a gradual heat increase, This will also affect heated floors built way up in the sky.

This is a great build, I wished I had read the "heated interior" bit, a lot closer though, While I built it as high as I dared [to avoid the ceiling] I should have built in the snowy mountains for the extra cold. I now need to either be in creator mode or have fire resist pots handy. But I still LOVE it!!

Hello Silver!

Also realised my bad spelling haha - I showed it off on this livestream: near to the end if you wanna breeze through it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HuK37QxiSZk

Love the amount of work you did on this build, it is insane!

Thanks everyone, I appreciate the kind words.

I'm now working on a space shuttle, and eventually a larger craft capable of interplanetary travel. There's also a long term Spaceport in the works, although no promises on when all of this gets released. I'm a bit of a slow builder. All of these upcoming builds will be in the USC Universe.

Let me know if you spot the "Easter Egg" hidden in this build. I won't give any clues unless you ask for them. Please, no spoilers for others though.

Fletchersketche, would you be okay sharing a link to your video when it's complete. I'd love to see it...

This is an amazing build, I am going to sue it in a video series I am making with my mate! Cracking work!

Silver! This is simply astonishing! Your a master at spacecraft!!!!...acutally at everything! Well done!
