Description:

Imagine a pair of spaceships which ran out of fuel and were forced to land. Mostly intact, the crew and passengers were able to turn the shells of their ships into two habitable towers using whatever they could scrap together; their new colony.

The plan for this project was to use as little symmetry as possible, therefore, each side of the towers is unique.


Features:
- 35 Separate Habitat Pods + Governor and 1st Officer Quarters
- 4 Piston Elevators
- 1 Chain Elevator
- 2 "Wooden" Footbridges
- 2 Tower Defense Turrets
- 5 Landing Pads
- A Clangload of Places to Explore


*NOTICE*
The foundation of the towers has been extended down 2-3 blocks so this can be pasted into moderately uneven terrain and still sit flush with the surface. IT SHOULD be pasted so the front doors are just above the ground.


The elevators work by increasing and decreasing piston velocity. So if you press a button and it doesn't move, try again because it might be at 0 now. if it still doesn't move then maybe you are at the limits of its travel. You also have to stop it manually on the desired floor unless it's at the very top or bottom of it's travel.


Comments are welcomed, enjoy!

That was pretty much my vision, or a pvp map with no jetpacks and only handheld weapons

This is outstanding. I can just picture this being a team base in a post-apoc, vehicles-only server.

Do you mind if I use this for a setpiece in a weekly livestream I do on my YT channel? I'll credit it in the description

The two small grid fan/vents on the exterior were removed because they were banging around and I couldn't understand why, the rotor offset was set to max. I also added a ladder in one of the rooms for a bunk bed. A wind turbine was also added to the tall tower.
