was wondering if you could make a battery warehouse with the shape of a half-squeezed cardboard tube and 40% of windows making of the structure, could you also have it just battery's on the inside without power production blocks? not many people make such a build and if they do it doesn't look great, a build with this description from your building skills would look great! (10-15k pcu please or under)

@The Guy Who Asked Thanks for the feedback, sometimes blocks lose their pressurization from weird game bugs, try restarting your world. if that doesnt work there is an air leak mod that can show you were it is losing air, I havent looked at almost any of my builds in like a year. If I get the time I will log in and see if it is holding air.

Hello! I know this is pretty old, but for some reason this stopped pressurizing after a few minutes of being on the moon, i have enough ice, oxygen and all that, but it wont pressurize. Any idea what happened?

Thanks so much!

@alucard That works, thank you and hopefully the server enjoys it.

Hi Divio,

I realized that my request may have been unclear before, so I wanted to circle back to clarify that our intention is to make a few changes to the grid in order to fit with our mod pack, such as adding a beacon or changing the power/weapons loadout, which will require a reupload. We've provided a link to your mod along with your name and full credit for the design on the page: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2439923690 .

I apologize if my original request was unclear; please let us know if you'd like us to stop using it.

@PJ-pete most likely the landing gear is locked to the ground, you will have to set up a button in a panel to unlock them before taking back off.

I like the drop base and the dropship, How do you pick up the base again so it can be moved. Dont know if it just me, but it won't move after being placed on the ground.
alucard 28 Feb, 2023 @ 10:12am 
Yep sounds good. Thanks so much!
Divio  [author] 27 Feb, 2023 @ 10:37pm 
@alucard oh yeah draconis server by chance? Go ahead, if anything throwing some info in the description sending credit for the BP would be great, though I do not know how to set it up as a spawn pod.
alucard 27 Feb, 2023 @ 8:46pm 
This is a really great design. I'm a server administrator and would love to add this as an NPC station for our players (possibly with modifications). Would you be open to us using it for our players?
Trinity 5150 5 Nov, 2022 @ 8:06am 
This one is cool. I just started using it as a ground base. I'm doing a lot of modifications to make it into an even bigger base with a large hanger area. This base is a really cool starter :)

Divio  [author] 13 Aug, 2022 @ 11:12pm 
@nick74racing No it is not a spawn ship/grid
nick74racing 13 Aug, 2022 @ 11:09pm 
like the start of a new world drop pod
Divio  [author] 13 Aug, 2022 @ 11:08pm 
@nick74racing do you mean a spawn ship/grid? or do you mean dropped from high orbit? It is not a spawn ship but it can be dropped from any altitude.
nick74racing 13 Aug, 2022 @ 11:00pm 
Can this be used as a drop pod?

ok posted the respawn version on my google drive. if ya want it send me a steam message or msg me discord (in keens discord under same name), google has virus scanners etc
Divio  [author] 20 Jul, 2022 @ 2:58pm 
@domingo @SultonMRP Appreciate you guys.
SultonMRP 20 Jul, 2022 @ 2:54pm 
basicly what i used, bit outdated, but something good to start on
SultonMRP 20 Jul, 2022 @ 2:10pm 
if ya ever need any help, drop me a line
Divio  [author] 20 Jul, 2022 @ 1:18pm 
@SultonMRP Nice you are around. Oh I see it made the crater because of no canvas haha. Respectfully, I want to know how to make it a respawn ship. Though, I do not feel comfortable having files sent to me. I will look into it.
SultonMRP 20 Jul, 2022 @ 1:12pm 
it was empty, i tossed some in, worked great, tested on all the planets, no issues
Divio  [author] 20 Jul, 2022 @ 12:58pm 
@SultonMRP the parachutes failed? Thats unfortunate I have tested it many times and even with the low opening of the parachute it was great. I will increase the parachute altitude though. I was kind of trying to keep the low altitude half for fun/anxiety of opening and half to avoid unnecessary enemy fire if there was any.

@domingo yep you answered every one of your own questions haha. Thats why there is a lander and hopefully you came prepared with some materials to maybe throw a turbine up quickly. hehe, enjoy!
SultonMRP 20 Jul, 2022 @ 2:58am 
Hello, I was wondering the same as T.W.K. was, for testing I converted it, into a respawnship, tossed some canvases into the parachute module (it was empty, made a nice crater), and it makes a nice lander :D if you want I can send you the respawn variant so you know the diffence in comparing the blueprint sbc and the respawn diffrences
domingo 20 Jul, 2022 @ 12:54am 
@Divio well, again, technicality only ;-)

Because this base does not have thrusters (or at least I don't see them on screenshots), only parachute, it cannot be dropped on non-atmospheric body, only landed by lander :-)

By the way, is the parachute sufficient for drop ?

Let's say that the main reason why not Wind Turbine is that it would stick out and break the shape, limiting it's use with lander - or requiring different one.
And anyway, if needed, engineer can add the turbine after landing.
TrueWhiteKnight 19 Jul, 2022 @ 6:48pm 
thats fair enough. would you mind if i tried my hand at making this a drop pod?
Divio  [author] 19 Jul, 2022 @ 4:50pm 
@TrueWhiteKnight neither, I do not know how to input the blueprint into being a respawn ship. The goal for this design is usually after the player has a strong enough economy to want to expand to a new planet or moon and this would be a starting base in that way.
TrueWhiteKnight 19 Jul, 2022 @ 2:14pm 
is this a respawn ship? or a replacement for the respawn pod?
Divio  [author] 19 Jul, 2022 @ 12:49pm 
@Mark4ik It is the Arlos Dropship and the link to it is near the bottom of the description :steamthumbsup:
Mark4ik 19 Jul, 2022 @ 12:47pm 
what is the ship in the last screenshot?
Divio  [author] 19 Jul, 2022 @ 12:32pm 
@domingo you are right, on an atmospheric planet only. This drop base can land on any gravity so the solar panels work for any planet/moon that does not have atmosphere.
domingo 19 Jul, 2022 @ 2:14am 
Nice.

Though technically, one Wind Turbine would provide more power than two Solar Panels.

Very nice work!
