    Man, I've only been playing for a couple of weeks or so, but my three houses are really just ugly box cabins with big gaps everywhere (and furniture poking through the walls.) Not only are these builds beautiful, but they really make me think I can build something kind of pretty for myself as well.
    You are truly the architect of Ark.

  • @Wing0Alchemist
    @Wing0Alchemist 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Couple questions.
    1. What's the point of triple walls?
    2. I'm running a private server on a VM with some people with lower end machines. I like building things that have a lot of functionality, like a hanger above for a "fleet" of flyers and elevators. How intensive is this stuff on the server? I know the more structures there are the more the server has to load and remember, but what's the ratio? How much should I limit my builds in order to accommodate for them based on the strain they add? I know it's not possible to find specifics without knowing their machines, but is there a general rule of thumb?
    3. Related to the previous, but have you thought about making a series on good looking/practical builds that are structure efficient?

  • @crumpet-kun
    @crumpet-kun 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Can you replace triple walls at a later date with better materials as you get access to them or do you have to set them up again?
    Same question for foundations, if I were to start with a stone foundation and upgrade to metal would it mess up the triple walling?

  • @themurrrr
    @themurrrr 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Ok, for you ARK MOBILE USERS:
    I can confirm the window idea works, also with the triple walls.
    I have basic Ark, no primal pass or anything special, and I play on iPad.
    The windows look real nice. I am building yet another base on my single player game, which I don’t need, but I do enjoy the building aspect of this game.
    Wish I could do the one with the double doors and the stairway, but I only have single door and the damn spiral staircase.

    What settings let you float around and place structures like this? Im New to survival games.

    Fun fact:you can double layer walls of any material by placing a wall and then placing one on the same snap point, but instead flip it. This makes armored/reinforced walls.
