Base Building Help

[xRandyR00x]

The piece thats putting me off this game a bit is the base building and work speed

I dont find the bases as large enough to fit everything in so I tried building a multi story base but Pals dont tend to go up stairs to get to work stations so the only time they are worked is by pals in party.

Semi solution to this would be splitting out the bases but then you get the problem that all the resources are in 1 base and you have to try and get them to the other overencumbered.

Perhaps need to relocate bases and redesign bases but feels a huge task.

Anyone got some useful tips?

i generally have one mining base mining ore because we need thousands of it

one base for farming for advanced food buffs

and one mobile base, which i'll relocate to coal / sulphur etc, as required. because i'm lazy and until digtoise is fixed permanently, i won't be doing any gathering that isn't automatic.

manufacturing is done at each base by building the appropriate structures.

yes, some movement of resources while encumbered is required, gotta just have some big storage sitting near the palbox teleport point. it would be great to teleport resources to other palboxes but i'm sure we'll get there, either through a patch or a mod :^)

are u playing single ?
for now i had build 2 bases
1 for coal + ore
1 for ore + farm + breed

Yeah playing single player, really should be transferable via palboxes, i think we will get there eventually. Getting a layout that allows pals to work on their own is a must though I cant bring myself to play another 5min where I have to hold F or pick up pals repeatedly to try to get them to work on the right stations.

There is some big spaces in the harder areas, but it does seem best for now to split you're bases for different uses for now i'm going to split the dairy and breeding to a separate area from manufacturing side, as for resources at least fast travel lets you transport them easy.

I have no issues with pals working stations at second or even third floor of my tower.
Just build everything twice as high or wide. Even stairs and have at least two ways up to each central area.

Ok think sussed it out when i built this base the construction was a bit glitchy and my solution was double stairs

Pals do not like double stairs. now i have built the base I can delete the stairs and build a spiral staircase and they seem to be ok with that

How about destroying old tech stuffs and replacing them by newer tech stuffs?

For example, you don't need Primitive Workbench anymore after you got Production Assembly Line. And you don't need Production Assembly Line anymore after you got Production Assembly Line II. Same with the others.
