So, I didn't do the math. I stand corrected. I still say the conversion rate is highway robbery.

It's nice to know the actual number. That's still quite a lot to someone only holding about 300 million after playing for 39 months... I could start farming or marketing instead of playing the game, I guess. But that seems like work. I'd much rather spend $10 or $20 and press a few buttons. Nice to know we might have that option soon(tm).

Nope! Can't do it. Not only does that mismatch the "warehouse" concept, but I've decided to make 2 warehouses, the one shown having 12 racks for uncommon salvage and 6 for rare, and the new base having all 18 for common salvage.

So I already moved all my "padding" toons to the new spot, so this one has a prestige balance of -280K. I can't even add a $0 doorway.

Looks like you've been ignored for about a month. My SG is on Justice, but I'd be more than willing to spin up a toon on Freedom and help get you started.

Send me an in-game tell @Granny some evening or weekend. I've just re-started designing my base, and would be willing to give you a brief tour if you have any toons on Justice. I have not much decorative yet... but I'm working on it bit by bit whenever I get tired of actually playing . The next phase will be a decorative conference room.

Hopefully you are willing to do some of the work, or most of it... and I can just get you started, or get you over a few of the rough spots.

Yep! Just did that LM.

I decided to start by nuking all decorative crap. I had the 5x5 teleporter room with a monstrosity I created right after i13 stacking came out.

First, I went for functionality, which means:
- 11 teleporters
- med bay with auto-doc and 2 robo-surgeries
- maximized storage (which is still inadequate)
- supercollider buff-machine
- all 3 crafting tables (why not)

Luckily I had 4 mil in PRESTIGE sitting there when I got back. I was seriously expecting to start from scratch, so this was a NICE surprise.

Re/ teleporters, you can max these using the 5x5 room for 8 of them and a 3x3 room for the last 3. I bricked off part of each of these in effect giving me a 3x5 with 8 and another 2x3 with 3 (which doubles as a hallway to the Ouro Crystal into one square of the 1x4 control room, bricked off to make the crystal look like it's in its own room, and the remainder of the control room and attached energy room not accessible without base editing--who needs to see those anyway)

I arranged things around having the doors in a tight central loop through the portal room and infirmary, with all teleporters (and Ouro Crystal) south of there, and the two workshops north of there).

Bah... takes too long to describe. I'll post pix when I get away from my hell hole (a.k.a. "work")

For stacking, stick with the "floor safe" under "room details" and one of the featureless "cabinets" for decoration. And for horizontals from walls (like teleporter beacons), try shoji lamps. There are some brief pics on the paragon wiki "base editing" that I contributed recently: http://wiki.cohtitan.com/wiki/Base_Editing

Some of the notes there might be helpful, especially buying a larger plot to remodel, then selling it back when done...

Also, most base designs I've seen posted here do not take enough advantasge of the "lighting" options--they seem so dark! I didn't even know invisible ambient lighting could be adjusted until I read the above article. Silly me! And a very useful feature that seems to be under-used.
