Here is a solo project on pve-c. Ironically enough, I wanted a small hub, not a big base, open to players, kind of like a point of interest. Well, for fear o neighbors and land claim, I had to rapidly expand. Now we have a shanty situation on our hands. Because of alters, map rooms, vaults, animal pens, I had to get environmentally creative to fit stuff around.
I have since abandoned this spot because of size and location to a more recluse spot that I will update later.
Playing out of this base has been fun, full immersion for me, but again, it’s too damn big for being solo. Hope this inspires the free folk out there.

Love it! This is the kinda stuff we build on our private server (Conan & Chill West Coast - PVE-C/PC).
Looks like a fun build.
Most mats came from decay raiding. The vault in the sunken barge was integrated bc I’m overflowing with thralls and mats that I needed 2 vaults and the storage bins that are full.
Most interaction happens in the main base, the surrounding was for show, with the intent to stock accordingly with food and supplies so I could run around to use before heading out.
Always thought Xel-Ha Docks would be a fun place to build, looks like a cool city you built up there.

I loved your project.
I spent a few days thinking about whether I should build on the Xel-Ha docks on a PVE server. I’m afraid of being reported and banned. Finally, after a long conversation here on the forum about a related topic, I decided to take a chance and started building a base on the docks, but taking care to keep the area free so that players can unlock the discovery of these ruins. My base won’t even be that big: I’ll occupy the internal area and a part of the platform that goes to the river to place some fish traps.
Of course, my project doesn’t even compare to that small city you built there.
I really like this place (including strategically, speaking of PVE and single player games): there are many resources there: iron, coal, stone, wood, fiber, some sulfur, gold and silver in the surroundings, as well as thick armor, normal armor, water to fish, spider webs and ichor without having to go very far.
I think that of the most basic resources, only the crystal is not nearby.
This is one of the most strategic and relatively safe places when compared to other locations with abundant resources.
I also particularly like the atmosphere of the docks after nightfall, when it is not raining. However, when it is raining I find the sound of the rain quite calming to listen to while I am organizing the base.
