About

Just a note that I haven't worked on this mod in over a year and am no longer sure of if or how well it works with recent updates. If I get free time I'll see if I can check in with and see what's up

Edit to the above: wow its been a long time, so much has happened in such a short time, now that a new Ark game is out it seems that this mod is sadly indefinitely delayed it was really great seeing everyone giving it a go and I learned a lot of lessons in project scooping. I've since moved on to starting my own studio and am working on my first game, Thank you to everyone that downloaded and gave it a go without out the Community jumping in on this and the support from Wild Card studios I wouldn't have the opportunity I have now, So again Thank you

Ark Settlements brings in a new level of gameplay to Ark by giving you the ability to build entire villages, manage and keep expanding them to grow them in to towering tech cities. Insure there are enough workers to work the industries including Food, Forestry and mining, whilst keeping the city hydrated with pumping stations and water wells. In time the mod will also have its own economy complete with shops and a global economy affecting the supply and demand factors of the city.

In short Ark, Settlements is a city building and management mod. It adds another level of game play on top of the Ark whilst not breaking the immersion or lore of the base game. Inspired by SimCity and City skylines this mod adds Plots to the game the three main types are Residential, Industrial and Supply buildings. Future updates will feature Commercial plots with a full supply and demand chain along with NPC civilians. If played on a server than the ability to sends trade caravans will be made possible along with one of the final features being City raiding.

I would not get your hopes up. ARK: Survival Ascended has already been released. I suspect many players and modders have moved on. And it's only a matter of months until Ark 2 gets released.

It's clear this ArkSettlements mod was ambitious, a huge undertaking and the author bit off more than could be chewed. Getting a mod like this to work alongside an NPC mod would be even more ambitious.

Would love to see a project like this, revitalized, it seems promising, pair it with a mod that adds random human AI to the mix and you got something interesting.

The only fun thing about having this mod at the moment is having a city exclusively, that is, the author's initial proposal. The upgrade stages only got to the first one. The npcs don't do anything at the moment, they just walk around. The shop is not active yet. It's fun to have a city, in addition to being beautiful despite having only managed to get a thatched house. However, there is no benefit so far or I haven't learned how to obtain it yet. It's a great mod, a very cool proposal, but as it says in the description, the author didn't have time to continue and the mod is stopped. I didn't see incompatibility, including, I'm using Humans NPCs together.

A única graça de ter esse mod no momento é de ter uma cidade exclusivamente, ou seja, a proposta inicial do autor. Os estágios de upgrade só consegui até o primeiro. Os npcs não fazem nada de momento, apenas ficam andando. O shop não está ativo ainda. É divertido pra se ter cidade, além de ser bonito apesar de só ter conseguido casa de palha. No entanto, não se tem benefício nenhum até o momento ou ainda não aprendi como se obter. É um grande mod, uma proposta muito legal, mas como diz na descrição, o autor não teve tempo de dar continuidade e o mod está parado. Não vi incompatibilidade, inclusive, estou usando Humans NPCs junto.
