Modular Rotunda - Build Guide - Ark Survival Ascended ASA PvE

- This large base is of a modular design, allowing choice in design and layout, and can be built all at once or over time as your tribe grows. Based on linked circles, the internal layout is zoned based on requirements. Small and medium tames can fit inside, large ones outside in walled gardens.
Zones in this example are breeding and rearing, tame storage, workshop, kitchen with integrated smokehouse, and food court.
Disable Structure Placement Collision is ON - NOT suitable for official
No point in a structure list because it will be different every time it’s built. Just get started with a few stack of each and build on!
Mods: Optional, but I used Greenhouse Glass Fix by InquisitorB (this can be installed/uninstalled without destroying stuff).

I wish I had a sliver of that creativity whenever I build something
You've just gotta throw bits together till something works, then expand it out into a build. Single player / creative mode is great for that
I try to be creative like this. And in the end, i have the most beautiful, gray box on the whole server.
Most people who claim to not be "this creative" just give up sooner
The way to be more creative is to ply about with the parts for a lot longer
Ive sometimes played around for a whole week without really any build to show for it, dozens of hours just putting things together then taking them apart
Download one of the mod maps, and use that as an always Creative Mode save
OR do what i do, use the Island as your CM and play/build properly only on Svartalfheim or another mod map
Pro tips right here ⬆
Omg I feel yeah I get soo distracted with other shit having fun or taming and spend hrs or days and end up with a box with 30 storages a bed and a bunch of metal cooking 🤣🤣😅 for what idk 🤷♂️
Damn bro the videos are really coming along. I like how you highlighted what needs to be placed.
Thanks! Yea I thought the build section needed some tweaks
Dude, this looks so epic! the feature I enjoyed the most, by far, was the tree on the inside, I always try and keep some in my bases and the placement of the base just fit's so perfect with it
trully amazing
Thanks! Ya can't always use mods on all servers so I try and use whats already there. There'll be more of this soon...
Working on this layout now. Unforgiving terrain but figured out how to work around it. The beach base with water pen will be added after. Keep up with the builds. I've enjoyed seeing each one.
I love the idea of the integrated tree. Looks magnificent!
Thankyou! I think it adds something a bit different
I added a integrated green ear a fire and a table… then brought the beaver near to drop some wood off at the fire and the fucker bit my tree down
Just found a workaround if you're unable to find a tree to build around. You can use the pots that come with Bob's tall tales to transplant bushes or trees and then just remove the inner foundations, place the pots, and fence around.
Great build BA. Wow, your subscription numbers are exploding. Well done you
Thanks @annieaussie9161 it's like that Field of Dreams quote "if you build it, they will come"
the amazing thing about this build is that the floor design is different for every location! you get to let the natural ground design the floor of your base!
Oh my i must have this!!!
This was awesome, more build videos plssss
@DalisYn What do you fancy?
@@BuildersAscended flyer base / pen with some cool concept or design. Crafting station / area , etc
@DalisYn Something futuristic perhaps? I have a few ideas… watch this space
@@BuildersAscended i will tune in !
Nice 😮
Dude! 💜 combine forces! lol 😂
Great idea! It's a shame they didn't show more of the interior construction. I would have liked to recreate it too.
Did you watch between 2 and 5 mins in the intro? If you pause it you can see pretty much all the interior, its simply placed, no tricks or anything complex
rly nice vid, i build my base like this and im so happy. Just alittle hint dont build much more structure limit is not far away ;-)
very true
hey how did u buld your roof glass dt get it i m trying but cant snap those square roof glass looks messie can u show how did u snapped all of them seems tricky on official
Great video do you have any tips on scaling each of the pods for if i want different sizes to join together or even just making the pods bigger to accomodate a behemoth gate?
@DeSeriousSquid Yes, when you start each circle, start from the middle, and keep making rings outward as big as you like. make sure that you place squares outside triangles, and triangles outside squares, for each ring (if that makes sense), then just adapt the walls to a different width by either adding a full wall instead of a quarter wall, or add an extra tall doorway. BUT, make sure the circles, however big, are connected by tringles to each other, and snapped together, so the roof works. Hope this helps
The problem with behemoths is they are ugly and hard to mask without looking like an eyesore, hence I tend to leave big stuff outside, and walled in. If you watch the first half of the intro you might catch the wall design I used, it has kept everything out so far and no tames have been harmed in the making of this video so far lol
Building the glass roofing rn. Does the weird clipping at 23:21 still work? I'd like to work around it to keep the design as clean as possible.
How did you get the glass on the roof to go into each other
so after trying this build, its apparent that you cant replicate the exact design on official. for a couple reasons.
1: you hit structure cap
2: the greenhouse ceilings cant be placed the way they need to be placed.
3: even if you just try to make it a normal roof by just continuing the roofs upward, they dont snap righ.
its best if you just use the foundation and make it a flat top or something around those lines.
this is an amazing build tho and i was 100% stoked to build it. just kinda wish i didnt waste 3 days building it just to find out that you hit structure cap xD.
This is why I put "Disable Structure Placement Collision is ON" in the description, on official its turned off meaning objects can't snap into each other. However, structure limit seems odd.... I built a more complex structure on official a few weeks back and didn't hit limit. Are you near another base enough to effect it? Or perhaps with Jeremy Stieglitzs comments about official server latency recently they've changed something to reduce server load?
@@BuildersAscended hmmm well yeah it is a possibility that I could be closer to someone else’s structure. I didn’t think that mattered tho.
I don’t know fully about the server load stuff I heard it was changed to 5750
Hello
Im trying to building the same base but only 3 circles
Amazing form
Thk
I built this on Scorched Earth, took me 4 days!
Well done! Which server?
While playing on Scorched I’ve just wild wandered into the Conservatory building on [EU] ARK Bliss ASA SE -built by Tribe of Goliath
とても素敵だ！！
❤️
How did you make the wood lay over the fire pit in the ground? Ive tried pillars, fence foundations, plz help!!
Ceiling down, railing snapped to ceiling
What are all the required items
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
How do you build the Fence?
How did you build this clear glass Walls
Mine are super dark and not good for seeing stuff outside
I used Greenhouse Glass Fix Mod by InquisitorB. It's in the description
how did you build the greenhouse roof on the corner? it seems you bugged it.
If you mean the bit I think you mean, Disable structure placement collision is on, I put it in the description.
I'd love to see something built on herb island.
What do you think would suit it? @esjdog
@@BuildersAscended I genuinely have no idea, ive been looking for inspo online and no one seems to build mega bases that look good on herb island.
I would imagine the whole island would look good covered with small & medium houses, like a fishing town. That bay would look good built up
Are one of the modules big enough to comfortably fit a tech replicator? I’m just getting to tech and am gonna do a base rebuild :)
@benhindbo5207 Gimme 5 and I'll check...
@benhindbo5207 Each module is 3 tek reps across. If your walls are 5 1/2 tall (like the breeding area in the vid) you can even fit a cloner in there with some space around it
Thanks man! Appreciate it
Hey build is going sick - stuck on the roof tho… did you have to allow collision to get the window ceiling to place clipping into the other ones?
Oh I see in the description… thanks
how did you get the fences to snap to the stairs?
Edit, you have to have the stairs directly over a normal foundation with two triangle foundations on either side, pick up the square and triangle foundations on either side of the stairs then place the railings and place the triangle foundations, then pick up the stairs and place the foundation, then replace the stairs.
Do you have a material/building count? I looked everywhere I can't find anything to help me prep for this build
That’s because it’s modular and can be built to any size. Best bet is calculate a single circle, then multiply by how many circles. That should give you a rough idea
Great build bit bad on cutting parts out on the roof. U showed like 1 section then just cut to it being finished.
Yea its just the same repeated round the whole roof. If I'd have showed the whole thing it'd have been over an hour
Showing how u do the interior would be amazing
I did consider it but when I first edited I wasn't happy with the result so I started again. After the 2nd edit I'd put too many hours in, and figured between where I showed levelling the floor, and pausing the intro, it/d show easy enough what I did
Also, ppl like different interiors. My preference is big tall open spaces, but many would put a mezzanine floor in. So I leave it open to interpretation
am i crazy or does this builder seem like the kinda guy to not eat sprouts?
Haha yeh nar...@@yokefish852
Thank you for the reply man love all the builds been building all of them on my server lol
Inside only has a few spots that actually consider you in a home, any ideas as to what it could be cause that? Im on scorched earth and cant get out of the storms unless im in very specific spots lol.
Possibly the roof, although I’ve built quite a large base on scorched which I know is 100% sealed, and I have that same problem.
@@BuildersAscended I'm gonna go back thru and add the pillars to see if that changes as I didn't add those. The build is so awesome tho Great work.
@@Leo82289 Thanks matey! Good luck!
Réf gg
En oficial se puede poner ropa en los maniquíes?? Saludos
Can this fit the bronto that is outside?
It will fit inside, but getting it inside will be a problem without cryos. Brontos are bigs!
But tbf they’d take up too much space, so why not leave em outside in a protected paddock?
If you obey your own rule "try to match the ceilings with the floor" then your glass roof will look a lot better
I have made many buildings like this, but none exactly like it, and i especially love how you made the glass roof a sunken thing, i always kept building mine upwards or just flattened, never sunken
BTW, i get you wanted to do this mod-free to make it more easy for people to replicate, but i thoroughly recommend just 1 mod to you, and any builders - ASR - ArkitectStructures Remastered, its pretty much the building parts half of what was S+ in ASE, the other half is QoL+ in ASA (if you want both halves)
But ASR alone, is just parts, no cheaty things, and it will amaze you, as well as all the normal stuff being made more versatile, it includes 2 Glass Tiers, Wood Glass and Stone Glass (the wood and glass being the frames) which are full tiers, everything except the foundations can be made of glass
And if you are one of those purists, "no mdos to keep it people friendly" i will point out just how difficult this build is without GCM activated :p
The Materials needed, the lack of flying, the attacks from random passing dinos etc, will turn this build into something that takes days and days to build, i know ive built many like it without creative mode
All that being said, i really like your design, despite me making a few very similar, certainly i never did things exactly as you have
Great Build! Great Video! Thanks for sharing it 👍
No probs! Yea ASR is amazing, I like that you can easily find their stuff by filtering 'asr' at the top of your inventory.
I do try to keep it mod free for the reason you say, but ASR is so good that I will be using it very soon, and I do have a half built structure coming along as we speak. I mean, whats a building channel without a building mod or two?!?
@@BuildersAscended I can see youre no stranger to ASR, and so i probably dont need to say this, but for eveyone else, and because i forgot to in my original comment
Its fantastic that you cna stack Foundations, one on tp of the other
This has many uses, not least creating a nice level platform on hilly/lumpy ground - with bits that can be hollowed out later for cellars, generators hiders etc
But also it makes what i call Proper walls, that dont look like they would snap if a raptor sneezed on them
Lol yea they're def useful. And the gate additions
Material list?
Did you have a list of materials?
I don't, because its modular and every build will be different. But you can estimate by looking at each section (either floor, wall door etc) and adding it up depending on the design you are doing. Or just start with a simple circle or two, and adding more as you harvest more resources
@@BuildersAscended well I'm playing on unofficial so so far it's going good I just don't like how some of the foundations are above the rest of the foundations but I guess I can work around that. I really was trying to encompass a tree into my area but I couldn't get a tree to work right for me so and getting the foundations and the circles right it was an endeavor to the least, but I got it and so far it looks good and people on my server or inquiring as to what I am doing their I said just wait till the finished product
To level the floor you can always use ceilings above the foundations, this will give you a void under some of the floor, I tend to use this space was a safe room for logging off (don’t want kidnapping or being eaten when offline lol). The tree is hard. It’s all about the choice of tree: finding the right size, AND on a flat-ish bit of ground.
@@BuildersAscended well I'm going to use just a rock outcropping instead of a tree so and I'm going to list it as the tallest point on the island even though it's not LOL. But I finally found a bill that's going to work because I went crazy with my character and made my character gargantuan in height. Unfortunately I've been under the weather the last few days so I haven't really been building on it much but tonight when I get off work try and put more to it
But as you stated I was pondering on using ceilings I didn't know if it would work or not but I guess I'll try that tonight
Don’t know how many things to make😢
Things? You mean walls foundations etc? It all depends on what you build because it's modular and changes with what plan you choose. If you're unsure, build 1 circle and walls roof etc, count the bits, then save up till you can add another circle and so on. That way you have a sealed base early on and can build it as big as you want later
Do you have a material list?
Because it’s modular it will be different for each choice of; how many circles and joints, what the floor is like, what wall and door panels are chosen. You can go to each section and count them out once you’ve chosen your design, that’s what I’d do
Okay I have the land on official and was just wondering if you had one I am going to try and build this I am a sole tribe but I got this and pointer you have pls lmk thank you it is and amazing build
I'm on NA-PVP5046 at hidden lake. I built the Winter Cathedral, had to ceiling the floor a bit bcause its on a steep slope, but the land is claimed ready for potential streams later on. I did it solo, took me about 24 hours solo, so I reckon the Modula Rotunda would be about the same. But... you could just start with 1 circle, build up, then add more later. Thats the benefit of modular design! Best advice I would give for any of my builds (apart from the pineapple pyramid) is - scaffolding!
Choosing to build this on a cliff was a cool idea 😂 (not me rn)
Hey can you please help me build on my server? Willing to pay
I give up….its like learning I can’t draw all over again.
I have days like that, just go have a tea/coffee and come back to it later, always helps
@@BuildersAscended I’m trying to plan out a pirate village on the Skull Island in Center. Gonna try for a Pirates of the Caribbean vibe.
@@jonwalker8945 That’s a cracking idea! You could even build a house on top and have all huts and cranes sticking out the sides clinging on for life! Thin vertical pillars in black would look like ropes. Then you just need to tame some dimorphs as parrots lol
@@BuildersAscended already had the perfect dimorphs. Spent 4 weeks breeding them just for colors and had to wipe all my saved data bc ARK….
RIP Fruity Pebbles and your kin.
@jonwalker8945 Ahhh no! Not good ol’ Pebbs! WILDCARD!!!!
