Need opinions on changing said lumber base.

I think that spot is taking up too much space when it's only practical use is escaping from the titan.


For the lumber base change I would rather see that go into a poll for how big of a change it could possibly be.

imo post screenshot of inquestion area.

If its that tri-entrance one (dual-entrance for 2x2) I think its no worse than the one directly under mound (100% nukable) or the one south east of mound.

That entire area is just asking for trouble. It must be eliminated.

I'd honestly have to see ideas to vote on a complete re-design, but I do agree an entrance should be removed. It could be interesting to make the new closed entrance relatively jumpable.

Yes, that screenshot would be nice, Carn.

But, unfortunately imbalanced. Probably need to make that a double walling base, since it is too close to mound with an OP exit.

I think that mass walling there would be a real bitch against titans since it is so close to mound, so might need more balancing later.

Here is what I came up with.

The red box is the seed from the other side.

Well, if you're doing that - you might as well just leave it as it is now, but remove the seed exit.

Still seems like a huge waste of space with that large chunk of trees at the bottom. Maybe split it in half into 2 lumbers?

Maybe something like this:

All entrances are 3x3 and can be blocked with 1 wall.

Do you guys want me to make a data less 3.1.0 so you guys have a method to demonstrate terrain changes?

Also boom!

Do you have a problem with my magnificent paint skill, is that what you are insinuating?

Hurt feeling aside, I think this looks great.

Lore: There was once a very fat builder named Timmy, he sat upon a group of trees and formed a lumber base.
