Request for layout names

Post by GRAWRG. » Thu Apr 29, 2010 2:13 am

ive looked around for them, and cant find them. people are starting to get annoyed and confused when i say " its that layout with one direction.. up, like a rainbow, and it opens into this big chamber."

if there are names for some/all layouts, could someone post them (w/pics, of course)?

thanks.

id like the news ones too, but tbh i couldnt find the old ones. i looked at that topic, and logically the names would be on the first page(s) where the first screenies are posted. they werent there. i jumped around a bit looking for them, but i cba reading through 7 pages of BBQ when what i was looking for should have been on the front page(s), and there are people on forums so eager to help <3

thanks for reposting the stuff too, btw. cause i wouldnt have gone looking through there again o.o

Edit: wait, i just looked.. i found the names, but its no use if all the pics have been removed!!

Feel free to name them. There aren't any "official" names. Just like there aren't any "official" pics.
I just put them together in my spare time, and duece did the same for the new ones.
The numbers of them are the order in which we found and compiled them.

im not asking for " offical " names, im asking for names that i can use to communicate with people o.o

ken, that links works for me.. but its not specific? like, it drops me at the index page or something.. and idk where planet layout names would be under titles like " building your colony " " invading a colony " " maintaining a colony " etc. i looked under invade and build, didnt see anything o.o

I've found that even if you have a set of names you call certain layouts, the chances that someone will call it the same is very slim.

When trying to communicate particular layouts to other players, the best way is to send them a link to the planet pictures page and tell them which # it is on the list. Not awfully efficient, but it's effective.

I've invaded that layout domed at warp, and it required a lot of energy (3 scs and several energy mods) to even get off a nuke. Beastly.

That's a link to the einz layout names that dogzilla uses. I tend to refer to that if the community doesn't have a standard or I haven't' named the layout myself.

Yeah, dome placements from '06 are going to be really outdated. I try to keep this list of dome placements current (middle of 7th page):
