Sorry mate, but this isn't true. I played the game and visited the retail forums frequently back during the live days and I don't recognize any of those names. Sorry if I don't remember your friends though. Does that mean I'm not part of the community then?

That base is truly amazing @ShardWarrior! I'm honestly blown away by this one. It has to be seen to be believed. I'm really impressed with the level of effort that must have went into building something of this scope. I think the engineering section is my favorite. Reminds me of the engine room from Galaxy Quest! But I love the bridge and command center too. This base really deserves a showcase/walkthrough tour video from @Dacy. I also just love the thought you put into the story behind these bases and the supergroups. Wanted to ask ... What exactly are they looking for?

Just being honest here, there's a real big difference between someone known by a billion people and a small handful of folks known by a small handful of other folks from the forums of a video game. Just so I understand, if we've never heard of any of those people you mentioned, we're not part of the community? I don't think that's what you're saying or what you're intending, but wanted to ask because that's certainly what it sounds like. If it is what you're saying, well then you're just wrong. We're all part of this community whether we've heard of these other players or not. I'm sure there's lots of people that remember those names from back in the day and that they're famous to them. I don't think that automatically means they're considered famous by everyone, nor do I think not knowing who they were/are means you aren't part of the game community.

WOW! I am blown away by this base. These pics definitely don't do it justice. It has to be see to be experienced. Thank you @ShardWarrior! You are most definitely the GOAT! 😁

I didn't assume anything, and I think you know that. You haven't offended me. If you want to keep looking down your nose at others, go right ahead. You keep doing you. I don't need to stroll through your bases at all, nor do I want to. I'm sure they're ok as is and I'm sure there's much, much better ones out there.

Just being honest, but I read that post you quoted differently. And unless that GM spoke in person to the player in question and that player admitted they "stole" names just for the sake of being a prick, you can't say your interpretation is correct. I admit I don't know much about that person in particular either. If they did do this out of spite or malice or just to be a jerk, then yeah, they're a jerk. I don't think they should be forced to give up the names for that though. If they're still active, they can be contacted and negotiated with to release a name.

So long as they made it clear in advance this is what they're doing, I don't see a problem with it. Like you said, no one is holding a gun to your head to join the team.

I can't imagine it's that difficult to copy/paste the item code for a storage rack and have it reference a smaller, already existing item like a crate or pallet or box. I say that without no knowledge of the internal coding of the game, just saying it doesn't seem that impossible to do.

This is very arrogant and just as close minded. You may well be efficient and fast with the editor, that in no way means everyone else will be regardless of how much time they spend editing. Not everyone is at the same skill level. Jordan knew others weren't at the same skill level as him, but he didn't look down his nose at them either. The base editor isn't "easy" or "effortless" or whatever other word you want to use to describe it when it comes to building above the base in rooms with thousands upon thousands of items. As someone said in the base building chat the other night, the editor simply wasn't designed to work in the way it is now, and anyone trying to claim otherwise is trying to sell you something it isn't. The editor works very well and is easier to use if you stick within the confines of the interior base rooms. That's not hard to learn how to do. Fabricating complex structures, items and environments is a whole lot more tedious work than just drag and dropping an existing item into a room.

The Current Room items list very desperately needs to have search functionality added to it. Finding one single item in a list of potentially thousands that can be in a room is an extremely tedious and painful process to the point of it being unusable. Nice to haves would be smaller functional items or single items that can hold the total number of salvage items or teleport points. Cimeroran NPCs and Store/Trainer NPCs for bases would be great too

Very cool!

Yes, I know. I was joking, hence the LOL emoji. 🤣

Just wanted to say, after visiting this base, I've started watching all of the Star Trek series again. 😁

I really, really wish we just had some simple shapes like squares and rectangles of varying size that are specifically intended for walls. Like have small/medium/large sizes with stone, brick, metal, glass etc. textures.

One thing to mention as I made these rookie mistakes myself - 🤣 Make sure you actually have something to power your base Make sure you're not using Tech beacons with an arcane portal 🤣 I thought the editor didn't have bugs? 🤣
