What are your base floor plans?

    What are your plans for bases/facilities on your newly discovered worlds?

    For example, here's how I plan to build my standard mining facilities on planets I deem "drilling planets" that will have no purpose but to mine resources.

    Feel free to draw up some plans or just describe them! You've got a new universe at your fingertips so be creative!

    My plans are very similar to yours, with one crucial difference. Penguins. Penguins everywhere.

    Mine would be a spire. One that would scrap space itself!
    Spire di wer Darastrixi Reach, Draconic for "Spire of the Dragon's Reach" (not Skyrim related)

    Penguins are quite necessary for any interplanetary operation.

    Very cool! would you have the stairs cut through the rooms? or a separate section for the stairs/lift

    Sounds like my first Terraria run X3 Simple and efficient!

    My first abode will more than likely be a very fancy hole in the ground. I might repurpose all of that later on, incorporate it into a larger, above-ground structure or just abandon it. I was, in Terraria, very fond of my floating island castles... but that was more of a necessity in my mind. I'm not sure yet what sort of great, amazing structures I'll build yet. I'm not sure what variables in-game will affect my build decisions, but assuming nothing the goal will probably be some kind of structure that has both intricate underground sections leading to mines and aboveground sections probably including a tower or two. Seems to be a pretty common base structure. :p

    I'll probably build it without a plan, but one thing I'm definitely building is a big museum with all the armor sets, weapons, items, treasure and creature (Alive or stuffed) that I find.

    That could be the base for clan Darastrix.
    But for my personal base: first off, it's name is "wer darastrix frun'na", it's a series of caves and tunnels with the entrances being hidden aside from the the cliff side bolt hole, for jumping out of when there is trouble.
    It will be a secondary base for the dragons. More of a place to work in secrecy.

    Elevator tower leading to an oval-shaped space station, at the moment. An orbital "tree" as it were, other parts of the station "branching" off.

    Sounds cool! certainly keeps mobs at bay.

    Very nice, futuristic rustic?

    That's always fun, start off without an idea and see where everything takes you!

    I think I'm going to have a residential planet with a massive "zoo" of all the alien creatures I've found.

    I like that arboretum! gotta have a steady source of food on an alien planet.

    awesome! well with starbound, you'll have as many fresh planets as you like to experiment with building structures!

    Currently just waiting for it to be released before I make any definite plans. But if there's going to be pumps I plan to make myself an underwater base with an airlock and everything. =P I may draw out what I mean later but right now I'm just throwing ideas around.

    Whatever is most efficient for what I deem necessary. Basically, there will be nothing aesthetic at the cost of space or functionality.

    postscriptum: Or in one word, "minimalist".

    A confusing labyrinth and if possible it will hold a Minotaur in it.
    Then I can have some fun RP where I go in the labyrinth with a clue to kill the Minotaur then clame the place as my base :DD

    Dwagon Hard-To-Destroy Reptile

    Only accessible, by those who can brave the elements: Deep water, or savage sky.
    ...Which admittedly means little to those possessing space-travel tech, but some traditions should be upheld.

    My personal base depends on its purpose:
    -A temporary shelter that affords protection from a harsh environment for exploration...
    -An open fort that invites company, trade, and industry, closing up to offer security...
    -A bunker to act as a staging area for short-range operations...
    -A castle in the sky, as an observation post, or sanctuary against an extremely hostile surface...
    -A great hoard nestled deep within the earth, defended against all but the most dedicated intrusions...
