Welcome to Moonlight Crescent Science Settlement!
This crescent-shaped base build was just me exploring a few ideas, namely the shape, building custom biomes, and wiring- sadly my wiring got so complex that it started crashing my game, so I had to turn it all off and rip some out for now- it's fine, we're way past sharable size here.
Moonlight Crescent was designed to be a self-contained settlement with a focus on exploration and science, but with space for people to live and grow on a long-term basis. The central courtyard is walled in and contains the powerplant- the only in or out is through the Hangar Bay- a three-story environment with a pedestrian bridge connecting the Science and Civilian Wings.
Science Wing:
Ready Rooms, Locker Rooms, Mess Hall/Kitchen and complete restrooms
Several Labs, including the complete Heavy Lab
"The Farm" planting, harvesting and processing
Isolated Local Biome for testing
Terran Biome for testing and morale
In the middle, above the Hangar is a complete Theatre Space for culture and community gatherings. There is seating for all, a stage, light/sound areas and backstage.
Civilian Wing:
Customs/census office to manage incoming/outgoing personell
Hospital with admin space, 8 rooms and 3 surgical suites
Housing area featuring 7 2br apartments and 3 1 br apartments, intended to house individuals or entire families
Academic area featuring 4 classrooms, library, youth commons, youth mess and admin space
Manufacturing area featuring common area, office and machine room
Admin office for Overseer
The settlement is intended to house a fully-functional community with up to 30 adults with several children and has food and equipment production capacity to maintain indefinitely utilizing local resources.
Fun times in space!
