Amphion - Reef - Modular Station

Description
Before Using
-Refresh your blueprints
-Make sure projectors are turned on correctly

Amphion's engineers have worked tirelessly to design a new means of starting a colony, both in space, and on land.

Each module comes pre-loaded with blueprints that allow you to expand your operations, improve your defensive capabilities, and house more crew.

Planetary construction involves building a starting stilt upon which you begin building the central platform. From there, you can either choose to build the Data center, which houses all of the core blueprints, or the basic tower, containing all the minimal things you need from a station. Comfort, air pressure, and such.

Numerous modules are not pressurized, but several provide access to places to restock your hydrogen and oxygen supplies. Each module is designed to fit onto the platform. The modules are called towers in the blueprint system.

Each platform comes with an oxygen tank, hydrogen tank, oxygen generator, vent, and gravity generator (though on planets, you can, and probably should ignore the gravity generator's construction in favor of saving for other materials.)

This branching kind of construction system allows for a single blueprint to be downloaded, and a base built from that single blueprint.

The Platforms
-Central: A cross-connecting platform
-T-Platform
-Bridge
-Corner
-End

The Towers
-Basic: A self-explanatory tower that provides all of your fundamental needs. Except toiletries. Toothbrush comes separately.

-Central Data: Your communications hub as well as your construction planning device. Comes pre-loaded with several blueprints to get you started on expansion to your very first Reef base. Don't worry, sea monkeys not included. (I really hate those sea monkeys, always throwing stuff at me and poking me)

-Processing: A tower dedicated to refining and assembling materials. Comes with 4 solar panels and a bunch of fully-upgraded machines to motor through that ornery ore, making you rich in the process.

-Docking: Self-explanatory. A landing pad with numerous connectors for smaller ships of various orientations, shapes and sizes, big, small, ugly, gorgeous, whatever. If it's small enough, it'll fit right where it belongs, on top of the landing pad.

-Storage: 5 large cargo containers in addition to numerous smaller cargo containers, for when you really, really, really, really really don't have enough space to store everything

-Hydrogen: 5 hydrogen tanks provide all the hydrogen storage you could ever want for your smaller craft to siphon that good ol' H gas.

-Power: Numerous solar panels, batteries, and large reactors can provide power to your wayward vessels quickly and without too much fuss.

-Habitation: Provides a safe shelter from the cold harsh problems present in space, as well as shield you from the mysterious and horrifying alien nights, does not come with a snack bar.

-Defense: The defense tower is a top-heavy tower bristling with weapons and furnished with assemblers to keep the ammo flowing (while supplies last).

-Repairs: For those times when you ding up your craft and you need it fixed, the auto-repair deck will provide a quick fix to what ails your ship.

-Salvage: Want to get rid of that old junker you found? Found some flotsam and jetsam floating around? Use your little tug to bring it back to the salvage yard. In space, simply attach a mass block to your ship of choice and watch the open maw do its work on your dejected little hunk of junk.

-Engine: Stabilizer, rotation, and control, all in one handy-dandy package. Uses hydrogen thrusters because we assume you're going to build BIG, and moving a mobile home is a lot easier than moving a mountain of metal. Only meant for space-borne use.

A Reef station is home to many kinds of fish... er, ships. Build yours today!

We believe in you! :D

This is gonna be a pain in the ass to update.

I'm able to paste it in a completly empty world but anything else like the server I play on it won't paste at all =/ oh well. i still use it for my solo play so thanks still lol

So, when you get the original blueprint in, you paste it in, and refresh blueprints afterward. It takes a substantial amount of time to load since it's self-referencing several different blueprints at a time, and the branching blueprint config means load times are long for it to be pasted in, or welded in.

It is a big resource hog when it's first loading.

I can't seem to get it to load into my worlds. I refreshed the blueprint lists etc, it just acts like it's loading and then doesn't show up. I also can't get it to project from a projector even in creative. I really wanna use this any help?

It's nice to see more projector-expanded constructions, instead of the usual "here's a world of parts, have fun".
