So, inspired by @Blisterexe@lemmy.zip with https://lemm.ee/post/44886389, I figured it's time to try building a skyscraper. I've actually never built one before.
This'll be replacing my starter copper sheet here, as well as a separate factory for Wire and Cable. I'm going to be using this Copper node, though, so this has to come down first.
Since I'm just gonna be repeating the same floor 8 times, it's definitely beneficial to blueprint the whole thing. Plan is, with this, each floor will actually be composed of two blueprints, since I'm prototyping for a 32m x 40m footprint.
I laid out the footprint for the main walkway/tubeway to figure out the position of the building, but when plopping down the door, I realized it looks really bad with the door off-center. So, I'll need to redo the walkway layout later, to shift it over.
Figured I'd just fully enclose the miner in a basement, and build the whole tower on top of it. I'll put in some lighting and more detailing later.
Looks pretty great so far, yeah?
Actually, no. I hate it. Utterly.
Looking back at the inspiration, I realize there's only ONE fully-glass wall, so you don't get the whole "see through the entire building thing" up close. Next time, I'll see if putting in walls on the sides and rear solves this issue. Also, you might be able to slightly notice, I forgot a piece of glass on the side walls, anyway.
Fingers crossed.
