'Trading Hub' -Flintlock's Exploration Sharegame

Recommended Posts

Hi guys!

We have been a little busy over on our little Exploration sharegame. As a by-product of my Royal Conservatory Project, I have created a number of designs that I've turned into modular templates. I tested them out on our Sharegame to fantastic effect!

-Coastal View. Ships and traders can dock with my port via the covered entrance as shown above.

I'm excited for the 1.5 release. As such my focus has been distracted somewhat toward building my ideal 'Home Port'. This is what I have come up with. I've gone for a small, compact base where everything is functional as well as pleasant in appearance. Everything has been built from modular segments of my own design with a little bit of editor manipulation to make certain things unpickable. On the whole, it can all be legitimately built.

-Main entrance, Charming yet easily defendable.

I've based the architecture on early victorian/steampunk genres like -You guessed it- Dishonored and The Order 1886. Due to it's complex construction, I have had to Weld a lot of it to save my computer from exploding however!

-I've based my harbor designs on London Underground stations.

The Main ships entrance features a port authority office for planning voyages, as well as a little area for trading an refueling/recharging visiting ships. Because it's mostly underground the light level really offers some great atmosphere!

Because the port is embedded into the cliff face, it can also be well defended against unwelcome guests. The Front balcony -Painted Black- is perfect for conducting ranged attacks upon approaching ships, I intend to mount heavy cannons on the front waterbreaks either side of the port entrance too

Much later down the line, I want to build a Tesla-defended grid controlled from the lighthouse.

-My office

I have decorated the interior with some furniture pieces and experimental assets I have designed with inspiration from Dishonored. I love the light fittings implemented in the franchise and I have done my best to implement them into Ylands.

 

Thats all for now guys! When 1.5 drops, Expect to see the Flintlock Trading Outpost on your maps sometime in the future! Cheers!

the way you built the dock under the building is impressive.?

The dock itself is an old warehouse design I made years ago. I’ve finessed it in the last few months to make it easier to build in exploration and to give it a use as a covered dock. It used to be a clay brick construction. It’s now made from stone.
