MOONBASE Requirements
« on: 8 March 2015, 07:41:42 PM »
Like a village on the Overworld, the Moon has moonbases.

These requirements might change a bit after beta, based on what our testers think, but here they are:

----------------------
Moonbase Requirements:
----------------------

1. Airlock (2 Piston-sealed doors)
   Airtight (at least 1 section/structure with airtight materials)

2. Communications Station

3. Power Generation: Reactor, Solarpanels, Generator, etc (at least 1)
   + Fuel/Coolant Storage

4. Oxygen Recycler
   + Storage

5. Nitrogen Oxidizer
   + Storage

6. Water Purifier
   + Storage

7. $5,000

-------

Get creative! It's largely up to you on how you make these requirements look and work :)

Post feedback as you see fit.

-----------------------------------

Later on we'll also allow private starships, though the details aren't finalized, this is our preliminary outline:
-----------------------
Starship Requirements:
-----------------------

1. Reasonable/believable design
2. Cockpit
3. Engine(s)
4. Power source of mineral/expensive blocks
5. $15,000 copy+paste and warp setup fee (requires a moonbase to land at, or somewhere at Imbrium)

Oh and, once a moonbase is confirmed and protected, we can infuse the ground below it to be mineral-rich. More on that tomorrow.

Water Purifier

A Cauldron Full of Water, with a fire underneath, connected to a hopper which is connected to a chest full of empty water bottles. Also every 5 or so minutes the chest gains a bottle of exp named 'Nitrogen Gas'.

An Idea of what this would look like. Obviously the fire would be where the flooring is and the nether rack 1 below the flooring.



Oxygen Recycler

A  3x3 room, surrounded by some sort of air tight block with ONE hole in it, in this room 78 flowers should be placed around a water hole in the center of the room, (any flowers) this room should be 2 blocks high, in the ceiling above the water hole there should be a hopper. (This links in with the Nitrogen Oxidizer)

Like this (Im showing you using glass to show whats inside.



Nitrogen Oxidizer

Using the Oxygen Recycler, every 2 or so minutes the hopper will gain 1 ghast tear (named Solid or Liquid Oxygen), this is to be put in a dropper that drops items ABOVE a hopper that is next to a block that is considered powered by redstone (e.g by a lever) and when Both Nitrogen Gas, and Liquid Oxygen is above the hopper flick the lever, and they should go down into a hopper connected to another hopper connected to a chest, forming Nitrous Oxide.

An Example. (The Lever is on so the items dont fall down)



I will be thinking of more ideas in the future.

Mostly, I'm tired of people being ugly to each other. I'm tired of all the pain I feel and hear in the world every day. There's too much of it. It's like pieces of glass in my head, all the time...

Also could we have a list of Air Tight blocks?

Pretty much anything that doesn't have holes in it. Gravel, dirt, planks, things like that are all non-airtight. Use solid blocks and all is well.


Your ideas for the recycler etc are all exactly the kind of stuff we're looking for. Stuff with some imagination to get to a solution is perfect.

The FitnessGram™ Pacer Test is a multistage aerobic capacity test that progressively gets more difficult as it continues. The 20 meter pacer test will begin in 30 seconds. Line up at the start. The running speed starts slowly, but gets faster each minute after you hear this signal. [beep] A single lap should be completed each time you hear this sound. [ding] Remember to run in a straight line, and run as long as possible. The second time you fail to complete a lap before the sound, your test is over. The test will begin on the word start. On your mark, get ready, start.
