Station Plans - Various

Post by Sam L.R. Griffiths » Tue, 11. Aug 20, 23:59

Hi everyone,

Please see attached a number of station plans that I particularly liked my designs of.

WARNING: These are large plot designs and the Shipyard may be particularly demanding even on relatively high-end rigs.

NOTE: Some of the exports are too large to attach so have been ZIP Compressed using Windows 10 native Compressed Folder, please comment if you have trouble extracting the plan(s).

NOTE: Unless stated otherwise, these station plans are Argon centric designs with some parts (mainly loadout elements) from other races (Teladi/Argon/Split).

Will attach more as I get them exported.

Enjoy!

They look good. I haven't tried building any of them as of yet though. They should do nicely for Holy Terra.

EDIT: I built a couple of the terram megaplexes and they're fantastic. They build relatively quickly with build time set to 60s per module. Loving the Terran designs in X4. Argon isn't bad at all but for some reason, the XR designs seemed to have more "soul". Teladi are cool as always.

Thanks for the feedback :)

My Terran Shipyards are not quite optimal, should have attached the docking port "arms" to the 1-dock port rather than the storage tower. That way it would have left more comfort room for expanding ship yard material/resource storage.

FTR the default loadouts for the Terran Defence platforms leave them at least half empty thus the initial Terran station designs are not as well defended as I had intended them to be.

WARNING reference Solar Power and Sol:
Spoiler
Show
Pointless building (terran?) solar power plant modules in most places in Sol except possibly Mars or closer - not enough sunlight to cause energy cell generation - especially true of Pluto/Oort Cloud.
Will be uploading a couple of newer designs soon (inc. Screen shots this time): A terran trading station, and a modified ship yard design.

The only edit I did to the megaplex shipyard was to set the presets so all the turrets or shields would get added. It just takes getting used to (for me) how the Terran stations require different and less than the standard shipyards do for the other races. I initially thought diving into this new Xpac that these designs were missing things. I'm looking forward to more designs.
