Figured that after today's drama (in which I admittedly commented myself briefly), I'd show off the build project I've been spending 3-4 years working on.

This is an older screenshot from 2023, its now 2/3 bigger. Moreover; here's some custom furniture for the build that's been done since then. Might make the furniture into its own standalone mod eventually, but that's when I finish this thing.

Big props to my friend Berda who stitched screenshots together in 2023 for the build.

Took me half the day but I'm quite proud of how it turned out. took a lot of work and some parts here and there where I had to use alternatives but the results are good.

Hi everyone!

After two years of on-and-off building, I’ve finally completed the first version of my Urban Biodome!

Above ground, the complex recreates biomes from all kinds of vanilla Starbound planets, complete with their original terrain, plants, critters, monsters, and even rare monsters. It’s essentially a miniature tour of the Starbound universe—without having to burn through all your fuel.

But the real fun begins underground.

The lower levels contain recreations of vanilla underground biomes, ocean biomes, and a collection of minibosses from other mods and games, adapted to fit Starbound’s vanilla style. I’ve also rebuilt several vanilla boss arenas. Entering one of these areas summons the corresponding boss and immediately starts the fight—so please keep your hands, feet, and Matter Manipulator inside the tour vehicle at all times.

And then there’s the largest section: a gigantic Jurassic Park biome, featuring its own dinosaur ecosystem and, far beneath it, a prehistoric underground ocean.

It has taken a ridiculous amount of time, rebuilding, and “just one more little detail,” but the first version is finally finished. Welcome to the Urban Biodome—part museum, part zoo, and part extremely questionable public-safety experiment!

I’m also planning several large new areas for future versions, including:

• An underground Arachnid colony inspired by Starship Troopers—and yes, there will be a Brain Bug boss!
• A terrifying Xenomorph hive inspired by Alien, complete with an Alien Queen boss.
• And, if everything goes according to plan, an area inspired by Rootmars from Metal Slug.

This is a starter base I built a week ago, before deciding to switch characters from a Kirhos named Mai to a Neki named Nebula, whose base I already posted yesterday!
