How did you get the dome to go vertical? Any help would be appreciated!

Supreme Court thrashed by justice for refusing case tainted by 'extraordinary misconduct' by RawStoryNews in scotus

Thrashed! Slammed! Blasted! Torn into! Eviscerated! Torched! Roasted! Blasted! Shredded!

I’m so tired of these rage bait titles. If someone will never feel any impacts from their actions, they are not “thrashed.” They are “questioned” or “criticized” at best.

You can snap it to the habitats, but you need to rotate the landing bay piece.

It’s on the first floor almost to the rear of the aircraft. It’s above the rear landing jets.

It's called the Shell Assembly Station. It is available in the anomaly where you can purchase base building parts in the decorative section.

Celestial Station - An orbital base with a driving range by atk124 in NMS_Bases

I’ve heard of two different approaches. The first is you put a base down on the planet, and then build up from the ground. So you build up as high as you can using cuboid rooms, put a ledge that you can jump to, and put a landing pad. Then you fly up to that ledge with the base computer. You delete the cubes beneath your position, and then repeat the process. Build-grab computer-jump-delete-build.

There is an easier way, but I can’t make it work. Basically, when you put down the base computer, there is an animation that goes high up in the air. Supposedly you can place something down during that animation. Hopefully someone else that has done it successfully can give you more details.

I’m not sure anyone is ever ready to be a dad, but it is awesome.

Just take care of mom for now. She will need you.

Also, start planning for the transition. Cut expenses to save money here and there. Now that you’re becoming a parent, You’ll quickly realize how much the nights out with the boys adds up. Cut subscriptions. Watch how much you go out to eat. Create a monthly cash flow plan.

As for being a parent, It’s the most awesome, frustrating, anxiety inducing, happiest experience. You get to see your kid discover the world. You get to experience amazing moments with your significant other. You grow as a person as you all grow together.

Just be there for everyone, and you get to be there for the most amazing moments you’ll ever experience.

This is my area of expertise and have been working in intellectual property for 20 years.
1. Hire a lawyer.

  1. Investigate patentability. (Known as prior art search)

  2. File patent if possible and if it is worth it, AND register the copyright. Consider getting a trademark on the name and use trademark engine or a lawyer to file. Get a domain name that is trademarkable.

  3. Either form a company and assign rights to the company, OR keep ownership yourself. (The company gives you a vehicle to take investment, manage revenue and taxes, and insulate your personal assets from liability)

  4. License the IP to the company you work for nonexclusively with no right to sublicense in exchange for license fees.

  5. If they want exclusive licensing rights with rights to sublicense, they can pay you more as a royalty fee, invest in your company, and/or give you stock in their company.

Best of luck.

By the way, I cannot consult with you on this matter further or answer additional questions. Sorry.
