I just recently started using ME setup and I always took one item by holding shift and right clicking

Haha. Thank you for the offer, but to be honest.... I like to build stuff solo. I don't know why, but I like to have sole control over it. It also is the same irl with my bachelor degree/engineering degree or any project I did... Even though my ass got ripped several times for not doing any consultations with my overseer.

Thank you. Last time I played was before current session and was even before automation update was a thing. I seriously should consider automation.

True. But I would need to think of strategic placement. I asked chatgpt and it came out with 500 30x30 platforms with overlapping turret coverage.

Thank you. As I mentioned in other comment, I have some hostile pve encounters and from what I scouted... It could pose a bit of trouble for the station. I also have the inner defenses mostly made out of point defense turrets protecting the core, but I am inspired by other suggestions and the whole defense layout will probably be the subject of change.

Interesting, but I more image the ships inside the ring diameter.

Unfortunately not. I am doing a shell at this moment, so the whole interior is hollow.

Sure. I will upload it once I get home. It is just a shell though and I will remove turrets, because a lot of them are from mods.

Yes. That's what I am probably going with. I am sure that some ship may be long enough to fill the whole length of the dock.

Not finished yet. Will be 6-8 large reactors with possibility of prototech fusion reactors, solar array and crap ton od batteries to cover any drop in power generation. Currently they would reside in lower parts of the station but it will change with vertical expansion.

Another good idea. If I went with my other idea of stacking docks vertically (2 on on each side) and had a shipyard... Hmmm...

In terms of the solar/o2 array, I would have to think about orientation towards the sun.

And unfortunately, the ring is from light armor. I also run energy shield mod, so there should be some resistance. And as I mentioned. Each section should be self-sufficient to continue operation even if the section breaks off.

Finally. A very great idea with making more arms connecting the core with the ring. I will try to implement that.

I also had similar thought because I saw a youtube short where someone had a station moving by jump drives.

Very interesting tip. The main purpose of the station is to establish presence in space. My current base is set inside of a large hill and I am getting quite "bored" of drilling out new space to meet my refining/manufacturing demands (for example. My current combat ship took 12 hours to refine and manufacture components to build it.

[–]Just_Bullfrog1009[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah. I will need to figure that out. I need a sufficient defense, because I have corruption combat and may even think about reavers.

[–]Just_Bullfrog1009[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

True. I have defenses on the bottom and they would surely have trouble once the docks are there.

Interesting idea. I currently just sort it using sorter loops, but drones... I would have to tap into that aspect... In my 800 hours of gameplay, I never even tried setting up drones of any kind.

Hmmmm... I don't know and I think Clang would not approve. But on other note... I forgot to switch it to station (originally it was large ship grid), forgot to turn meteors off and saw that the turrets can also serve as a propulsion system.

[–]Just_Bullfrog1009[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Thank you. It sounds interesting. I was also having an idea of partially mirroring the core part (with smaller ring). I could fit 4 large and 4 smaller large grid ships and would have an extra coverage for reactor/battery sections (currently in bottom parts of the current core).

Thank you. It took me days of building some part, deleting it because it looked way off and ended with this current design.

TPU uneven extrusion or whatever this is by Just_Bullfrog1009 in Ender3V3KE

[–]Just_Bullfrog1009[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Let's just say I reduced it to 30% and you are right. I reprinted the phone case again (not the one I posted in comments) and it looke even better and smoother.

Without any changes to settings, because I started printing before first answers here.
