Add some warning sign

pastel tapir

#

Catwalks around the tanks

crisp trellis
pastel tapir
#

since i have these

fiery pivot
#

Because it will look cool

#

Since i do love catwalks

pastel tapir
#

you can help me πŸ˜‰ jk

#

but

#

why

#

thats waste of my facility budget πŸ’€

fiery pivot
#

Okay for realistic reason (i know it stupid)

#

We prevent people touching it without permission

pastel tapir
#

OH

#

you mean fences

#

i can do that

fiery pivot
#

Yeah im stupid

#

Since it night

pastel tapir
#

Ah

#

for me its 5pm

#

btw

#

nice 737 you have there

#

did you build it?

fiery pivot
#

Nope

pastel tapir
#

Alright

fiery pivot
#

It a game where people rp about plane, ship, and other, wars, fighting ect

pastel tapir
#

you mean project flight?

fiery pivot
#

Neo warfare x

pastel tapir
#

ah

#

cool

#

737 is nice

#

which airline tho

fiery pivot
#

It a AWACS

pastel tapir
#

this very safe

#

damn

#

progress going to fuckin slow guys πŸ’€

fiery pivot
#

Pipes leak

pastel tapir
#

I really gotta start searching for ppl that can help me with that

pastel tapir
pastel tapir
still bough
#

i suggest making the tanks a little bit taller, unless lore wise they go really deep down. But if it's just that small little tank, i doubt there's that much there, so by making them taller it would be a little more realistic

pastel tapir
#

So guys

#

quick update

#

@inland plover has begun scripting the game

#

you can watch gim on his channel

inland plover
#

wrong one πŸ’€

#

ill just post them here ig

pastel tapir
#

right one

inland plover
#

if yall would want to watch lol

pastel tapir
#

idk if its even allowed to share a yt link like this. (if it isnt, mods just delete it then)

inland plover
pastel tapir
#

cool

pastel tapir
#

So guys what do yall think of tje stuff

#

gotta bring back the the activity

opaque lava
#

It nice

pastel tapir
#

good decision.

#

very good

#

you have won a private office in the facility

surreal wasp
#

yes

pastel tapir
#

So guys

#

quick poll again

hard topaz
#

Im gonna uhh tell you a real quick fact, unless you want to shift things to make this a actual thing, plutonium is not common enough to be its own mining system

if anything plutonium is ridiciously rare that we typically make them in the labs than finding them naturally (so its more of a synthetic element)

However you can make the mine to be a uranium or thorium extraction sites like LC and those element can be processed later to be plutoniums

pastel tapir
#

that's a "quick" factπŸ’€

hard topaz
#

i have to say that real quick because im unsure if you want your game to follow realisitc aspect n such

#

if not, then it shouldnt be much of a problem

pastel tapir
#

Yeah I wanna follow a realistic aspect

pastel tapir
# pastel tapir

alr so with the answer yes ill just think i will add a mining cave that will have a reason to exist later on, also a processing plant will be added but i think it wont really have a function we will see tho

pastel tapir

Man this looks good

#

You got locations and stuff for the facility?

pastel tapir
#

You mean where the facility is located?

#

Well

fathom vine
#

It’s fine if ya don’t

pastel tapir
#

It's in the USA and it's a german corporation so it's just a company location in the state of Wisconsin

#

Near the city of st Paul if I remember correctly

#

In America there are about 5 locations

#

and in germany 4

fathom vine
#

You got a lot of lore?

pastel tapir
#

Yes

#

But currently working on it

#

But yes

fathom vine
pastel tapir
#

yes

fathom vine
#

You got names for all that?

#

Sorry I’m just

#

A big lore buff

#

For

#

All games honestly

#

I even write fan made lore sometimes

#

Mine in Solaris got rekt

#

I used anti matter in the lore

#

But supposedly it’s a fusion reactor

pastel tapir
pastel tapir
#

I will tell yall the lore when it's completed and polished

#

So just wait a lil

pastel tapir
fathom vine
#

So

#

An example of polished lore is simple, but not too simple

#

For example

pastel tapir
#

I mean with polished only working out minor details

#

The biggest part should be done

fathom vine
#

β€˜The company was founded by German scientist Adolf Bergunsonn and American triple PhD Robert Winters.’

#

Random names I thought of in my head

#

But the point is

pastel tapir
#

Interesting

fathom vine
#

See how a noob can understand that writing

#

Pretend your writing this lore for fifth graders

#

They need to understand it

pastel tapir
#

true

fathom vine
#

Writing is something that everyone thinks is so complex

#

But it isn’t

#

this would be the coolant pump room

#

but i think i will remake it

#

as it kinda looks ass

wind valve
pastel tapir
#

i am planning to remake the entire roomk

#

as i kinda dislike it

wind valve
#

hello =)

pastel tapir
#

im honored you joined here

wind valve
#

i have been lurking this channel for a long time

pastel tapir
#

Damn

#

Kinda creepy πŸ’€

#

how you like it so far?

wind valve
#

it's looking pretty sweet so far

#

pretty big step-up from the old vanguard days

pastel tapir
#

i agree

#

i think i got kinda better in building

wind valve
#

You definitely did

fiery pivot
#

Turbine

pastel tapir
#

so

#

idk

#

I got inspired by the style

#

definetly not that good as yours

#

but its a good start id say

wind valve
#

it is a good start, yeah

pastel tapir
#

thanks

pastel tapir
#

heres a turret i made for a friend

low grove
#

millenium gun

pastel tapir
#

its actually inspired of our german mantis

#

this guy

low grove
#

mantis looks

#

exactly like millenium gun wtf

pastel tapir
#

alr

low grove
#

i assume millenium is naval then

pastel tapir
#

i guess so

fathom vine
pastel tapir
#

no

#

i wanna keep a bit of realism

pastel tapir
#

Okay guys

#

Do you want the left or the right as the coolant pump

wind valve
#

the left one honestly looks more like a pump, the right's more like a turbogenerator

pastel tapir
#

alright

#

ill will wait until like 10 votes or smt

fiery pivot
#

more than a pumps

pastel tapir
fiery pivot
#

Paper please

pastel tapir

Hm?

fiery pivot
#

My favorite game

pastel tapir
#

huh πŸ’€

fiery pivot
#

Abit familiar

pastel tapir
#

okay

fiery pivot
#

Im sure it would be better

pastel tapir
#

yeah this is the reactor control room area tho

#

so you cant get tickets here

#

but in the lobby

fiery pivot
#

Oh

pastel tapir
#

YEAH

#

lobby will be cool tho

fiery pivot
pastel tapir
#

Ofc

fiery pivot
#

Meanwhile the other area

pastel tapir
#

i think thats a clear answer

#

then ill be the left one

#

So i assume yall would want that ill use the right on as the turbine?

fathom vine
#

much more piping is needed, a rotary generator, and make the covers bigger

pastel tapir
#

alright then

reef narwhal
# pastel tapir Security Lockdown

i dont think a heavy door like that would jump up and down. also the door just takes up a lot of space on that wall it looks a little odd

pastel tapir
#

and i think it just looks better than just a door closing fast

reef narwhal
pastel tapir
#

The shear force of the door just quickly falling to the ground makes it bounce

reef narwhal
#

I don't think a 60 ton metal door would bounce like that...

pastel tapir
#

its not 60 tons tho

reef narwhal
#

So what? It's a rough estimate. The door is thick, wide, and tall.

#

A door like that is too heavy to have a bounce to it

#

It would just close all the way down

pastel tapir
#

round about 30 tons

pastel tapir
reef narwhal
#

Looks like a Papers Please door

pastel tapir
#

whats that?

still bough
pastel tapir
#

the power outage doesnt really happen i just randomly activate it

#

i thought it would be funny

pastel tapir
#

So guys

#

I gotta come up with some concepts

#

Yall can do too

#

I firstly gotta think of the facility layout and also some hallway and room concepts etc

surreal wasp
# fathom vine Sector A: Corporate Area Sector B: Research Laboratory Sector C: Maintenance Zon...

meh sectors cause

  1. security gets a whole ass sector/????//
  2. coolant zone the fauck is that supossed to be, it would fall under maintenance n stuff
  3. it still is kind of wrong cause you wont get whol ass sectors for stuff listed here
    for example
    any research projects (like a reactor) would fall under a research wing/group/you know what im talking about
    and i doubt that a researc wing would get a whol sector (unless THAT big)

remember this is constructive criticism good

# pastel tapir Security Lockdown

not safe!!11

  1. no marking that the blast door will just fall like that
  2. no marking on the floor wher the blast door will land
  3. a blast door shouldnt juyst fall like that cause danger111!!

cus

#

yknow its a screen

#

It should be like smoothplastic or neon

pastel tapir
#

Yes but the core part is not scrern

daring ledge
#

And also the 'offline' indicator should have a background color

#

like red or smn

#

It's also too basic with very few details

#

Try looking at nuclear reactor control rooms or RBWR for references

pastel tapir
#

Yeah ill Detail it once im able to

daring ledge
#

Cause like in qserf it's filled with random detailed lights

#

Also it seems to be floating

inland plover
#

well, its not the final product xD.
The two larger screens on the left and right are main screens, not the core diagram. yes i plan to add the lights chernobyl had and the offline screens are supposed to be very basic

upbeat oasis
#

if you didn't know (which nobody knows) having any large form of annunciators is just
perfect in my opinion
the rating by me instantly goes up by 90%

lethal isle
#

Meh it depends

#

I like to either have them on a separate dedicated board or (if it’s absolutely necessary) localize them to certain parts of the diagram

That way it’s easier to see what section of the unit is throwing the warning

its just indicating that shit is runnin

so

those arent error thingys xD

Soooo then if this were real life it would get shut down immediately due to the red and yellow indicators just saying it is online (red and yellow indicators are a universal sign for hazard)

pastel tapir
#

im so bored man

#

its so boring working on that stuff rn

#

idk what to do recently

#

usually working on this project gives me enjoyment

#

but just doing everything alone is not really cool

#

idk what is going on

hard topaz
#

solo development may be fun for a bit but its def really hard to do all the task at once

assuming you do have dev friends working on you with this, how about ask them to join you in studio? more of like just seeing you build if they dont feel like building at the moment
Im often sometimes work alone in LC and when i do feel that way, i do ask my dev friends to join in studio not to just help me work on stuff but honestly just to have some company

#

it really helps for me honestly, but i understand if that doesnt work well with everyone

pastel tapir
#

Well

#

I have Zayy

#

and tools

#

Both of which are busy since a few weeks/months

#

which im okay with

#

and other people wont respond to me or say that they are not feeling like working with me anymore

#

and then seeing them in a other group

#

but thats alright

#

thats how it goes

#

ill try my best with building but it gets lonely pretty quickly indeed

hard topaz
#

ah dang

pastel tapir
#

But idk

#

music helps ig

still bough
#

ik i'm also working on my own game and i sometimes get help from others but not always and it does really just drag down the enjoyment but as you said music does help but in my book i also find just watching like a yt vid in the background also helps it may slow down work slightly but it also helps prevent burn out

#

the industrial light boys

#

So following the solo development thing, I've made the decision to sometime add friends to help for a while and then again solo I think it'll benefit my mood and the development aswell I hope yall alright with that

I most of the time manage everyting by my own. Thats why i also need to learn coding because i even cant rely on anyone to help me with that

#

I have the feeling that the people dont even know that everyting exapt for the code id made by me.

#

For the building of the second reactor chamber niogetrash just give me a design idea thats it

#

I dont rlly get help even if i would rlly ask for it maybe thats why i dont rlly ask anymore for help

#

Well i know for sure that i never get Project DMC finished

#

I mean i could had the Startup done for like over a year now but still didnt finde someone who is good enaugh or was willing to do it

And i can say the moment will come where i completely give up on it

I think it should explode (not like the normal meltdown) running out of fuel is not fun. I think these rare event should be enjoyable and rewarding.

pastel tapir
#

That would be an idea for an other event

#

adding some stuff that happen will (in my opinion) give an enjoyable Experience since it would be that boring, maybe having to repair some reactor components or refuel the core or even try to make safety tests we will see what I can arrange

@pastel tapir Put fuel rods in the middle of this control panel with a lever that can range insertion from 25% - 100%, 0% is an option but is only at that level by default before startup

pastel tapir
#

that core isn't really running with fuel rods

fathom vine
#

considering if im correct

pastel tapir
#

Nope

fathom vine
#

the game says it runs on plutonium

pastel tapir
#

Yes

fathom vine
#

control rods

#

fuel rods

#

neutralizer rods

pastel tapir
#

But it is using a laser combustion cycle

fathom vine
#

Theres

#

neutralizer rods

#

helps balance the reaction

#

?

fathom vine
#

they would help 'neutralize' the reaction

#

keeping it under control

#

inserting themselves directly into the power laser combustion chamber

#

to help balance laser input

pastel tapir
#

The core runs with a glass lenses and Panels which regulate the Combustion

fathom vine
#

then neutralizer rods are inserted DIRECTLY into the combustion chamber

#

to help regulate the combustion itself

#

their tips are made of a solidified chemical which can terminate plutonium reactions, helping manage the combustion itself

#

considering the amount of plutonium directly injected into the reactor, it doesnt completely neutralize it but instead just keeps it from overpowering and busting the containment apart

pastel tapir
#

It still doesn't use rods my friend

#

It's a complicated thing which I'll explain some time later

fathom vine
#

anyways

#

i just got timed out for using a header

#

Hm

fathom vine
#

no rods

#

got it

#

hm

#

thinking of concepts that might make sense

#

Neutralization Energy? Basically the concept is

#

A chain reaction caused by uranium 235 being lit by a powderkeg, which slides into a frictionless chemical causing a chain reaction to suppress the plutonium reaction

#

said reaction is controlled via fuel rods, which are inserted at different ratios

#

without the rods though

#

it is possible then that energy outflow could simply be managed via said lever

#

or abandon the concept entirely

#

this feels like i am pitching this to you at a meeting

#

lol

#

Basically:
Concept 1: Neutralizer Rods (abandoned)
Concept 2: Counter-reaction
Concept 3: Abandon said idea alltogether

#

wait is this the old turbine hall?

pastel tapir
#

yes

#

it was

fallow berry
#

Or

#

fathom vine
#

So what you could do is supercapacitors for the reactor, basically storing left-over energy and discharging it into the power lasers, basically big recycling machines lol

#

reference image from poseidon 2006

#

im particularly talking about this bit

#

how meltdown could work:
Phase 1: Ominous music as the reactor begins to blow off steam from the vacuum fan and an announcement states that the reactor is entering a meltdown phase. The reactor slowly creaks as the power lasers become visibly unstable.
Shutdown phase: Players must go to the auxiliary control room behind the reactor chamber and turn on the fuel drain, as the power lasers cut off and fuel begins to pour out from the side of the power lasers. This will result in 2 possible things:
Shutdown success, where the power lasers are drained of fuel and the reactor cools down. The vacuum fan activates and the reactor calms down before the game restarts.
Shutdown failure, where the reactor has gotten too hot and the fuel ignites, setting the reactor chamber on fire and burning anyone in the chamber. (this is not the power lasers exploding, this is the fuel igniting.)
Phase 2: The reactor confinement begins visibly heating up, becoming red hot. CU. 2 explodes and the breaker in the control room breaks as a large electrical spark causes the handle to go flying off. The lights flicker and turn off, before the whole facility is illuminated in red when the emergency lights turn on. Turbines 1 and 2 both explode from steam pressure, and the facility begins falling apart. Eventually the whole reactor confinement bursts apart, destroying the reactor chamber and control room. Eventually the highly reactive plutonium fuel and the ball of energy inside the reactor is exposed to oxygen, causing the fuel to ignite again and flare up, destroying the whole facility in an uncontrollable explosion.

Fuel Cartridge idea:

How fuel could work is Fuel Cartridges. Medium-sized, square cartridges about the size of a router. Inside is a solid brown substance which is the fuel. These cartridges are inserted into slots in the power lasers during refueling which during operation it works like a hot glue gun, pushing the solid material forward and melting it in a heating chamber before it melts into a liquid, then combining with a uranium material to create a massive chain reaction, the energy of which is absorbed and shot out of the power lasers into the reactor. The fuel is highly flammable, hence why it caught on fire during the meltdown during the fuel ejection. 4 cartridges are inserted into 1 power laser. Since theres 2 power lasers, that means 8 cartridges are needed for typical operation. Cartridges are made in a factory in the facility where you can select a fuel potency (which increases the chances of the fuel becoming a lighter brown (reactive) or a dark brown/black color (effective). The process isn't seen, you just hear the machine clunk as it dispenses a cartridge. This factory isn't very far from the airlock to the reactor chamber. It would be a pain having to carry 8 cartridges all the way across the facility.

This substance is made of a redacted material, made of multiple natural elements compressed together and combined with basic car diesel. Yes, the fuel was discovered by combining the basic formula for normal car diesel with multiple natural minerals (including uranium). Then it gets solidified and put into a cartridge which is inserted into the power laser.
