Base Location

[Storm Reaver]

Having hard time finding good base location. Trying to find a large flat location that I can build wall surrounding entire circle. Also a base location without anything cluttering the ground, like resource deposits. It's mostly for maximum size and aesthetics. I've been flying around the map and usually the best large areas are taken by poachers.

I wish they would add a few islands with flat grass areas, instead of just sand areas. I also wish they would create corner and inverted corner roof pieces.

main base should be a big enough "flat" place. But most important for me is that it looked good.. if i be there most of teh time it most look great.
my other bases are only for ressources like ore and coal and are barren

There are many places like that. Also "nothing cluttering the ground" what do you even mean? Ifs its rocks and trees, remove them and place a foundation on top of them, they dont respawn. If you mean grass, raise the foundation higher then the grass and it wont clip through it.

If you just want a big empty field there's one by Zoe's tower, but it's absolutely awful against raids.

I am trying to make sure that my pals in base doesn't get sick now.

The things I would suggest to make sure your pals get sick less:
Block every tree and ore to make sure your pals don't spawn on it and get stuck.
Build non pal related structures outside the circle (or you could build a ramp down from roof)
Make sure that the circle doesn't go below some cliff, on top of some rock that you can't block off, no water inside circle etc.
I think it is less likely pals get stuck on logging site if it is on the outer edge of the circle.
Try to make sure there is enough space for pals to get to their work stations.

Best base is a multi level one.. go to 10, -527 ore and more ore etc

Poacher can de-spawn do you can claim their space, i found north west of map near volcano has some nice flat land big enough for a circle, one having a circle of trees around it, another having only a hill as its pathway up being perfect against raiders (244,8)

build a floor if need be around entire circle and stuff should stop spawning under it (except flowers and bushes but minor thing IMO)

Key is Ore .. even level 1 take your time and locate before just thinking flat space. What i suggested before is good spot check it out. Map cords is in my last post

I just moved my main base to 29, -445 (a bit northwest of the Kingpaca boss).

It's on top of a mostly flat rock feature with grass & trees. Raiders are unable to get to it, & whenever they do, they spawn really far away & turn around before they even reach the foot my base area. Just down below to the north is a mineshaft with a Black Marketeer too.

Only downside is the very northern corner tip sometimes spawn hostile lv9 mobs. I put walls there to block them as all my Pals would stop working to fight them, then most of them get the "no available work" thing & just constantly wander around instead of doing their specific task.

Anywhere on the Marsh Island is a good location for a primary base as it's both huge and flat and most of the monsters that spawn are low-level.

I want to use foundations sparingly, because lining the ground with them looks terrible. It's something I want to avoid, because aesthetics matters to me. I've got bases for resource farming, so I want a main base location to make something nice.

I'll be checking out the locations mentioned.

-190, -700 has a huge flat zone perfect for base building

That was my starting base and I never used the ore nodes. I actually spent hours trying to get the stairs just right to get to the second level. My Pals kept getting stuck on top of ore nodes and that got quite annoying. The Black Market Dealer just off to the side was pretty good though and the guy who got reincarnated from another world, who got a cheat ability to make Pizza was pretty funny.

I eventually made another base at 190 -40 and turned that into my resource farm. Made another base in the winter lands for quartz. I deleted this base and now I'm looking for a good location for a main base and breeding farm.

There is plenty in the game. Just break the stone resource nodes and build over them.

That's beside my resource farm, but poachers have a base there. I never knew they could de-spawn as they just seem to stay constant for me. Is there some trick to remove the base?

I don't want to cover my base in flooring just to compensate for annoying/ugly nodes. I know that wont re-spawn them building over them, but I don;t wan to "HAVE" to build in that specified location and ruin my building plans.
