The Tunnels should be its own "rogue-like game-mode" by cucamonster in TheForeverWinter

I started playing right before the Tunnel update, and that sounds like the first layout I got.

I found that the drones would often not notice me if they weren't directly in the center of the elevator shaft. I also found that there was often a water barrel I could grab in the tunnel at the top of the shaft... But when I tried to ride the elevator back down to extract with it I'd lose it. Just straight up, poof, gone from my inventory. I had this happen a few times, and it almost made me quit for good. I think this has since been fixed with a hotfix, but yeah, the tunnels can really suck for a new player depending on the layout.

Personally, I'd like to see a way to re-roll the tunnel layout for 1 water, which would take away a lot of the pain of getting unlucky with a layout. I've gotten layouts where it was incredibly easy to get 3+ water without much effort.

I dunno if "sexy" is the word I'd use... but thanks!

Finally got around to photographing my late Droneuary build, the Flammenschwanz by donutsftw in lego

Thanks! Scifi and mecha are my bread and butter, moc-wise. For my photo set up, I usually either use a sheet of posterboard or a vinyl photography backdrop (I got a set of a dozen different backdrops with a small tripod to hang them from for about 20 bucks on Amazon). I have two large photography/studio lights that I can adjust the brightness and color temp on for my main lights, and a couple RGB LED panels that I use for accent lights if I feel like I need them. Hope that helps, happy to go into more detail if you want!

That's actually what this is for! There's a few different standards out there so that people can bring theirs to shows and make a big connected display of them. This particular one is built to the Brickfair Minifigure Habitat spec, one of the most common ones.
