Question of the Week: What do you add to liven up your base?

Just look at Emberlight. LOTS of craftable trees. Ivies of various sizes and colors. Tiny Friends wandering around my base. Yes sir, even CATS! I’ve got a black one, Bombay I think.

You have three models of alive cats in your Devkit! Why can’t we have those decorative pets in the vanilla game? Emotions for placeable Thralls (StraysThralls from Stray Genius) and different clothes for crafter Thralls (Emberlight) not to look like a bunch of ragtag.

Well i am a simple guy too. I will agree with my friend crom faithful that armor stands are really necessary in the game. Imagine that in several private servers there are museums. It would be so fantastic and complete to have armor stands. Plus internal buiding pieces (walls, fences, hand rails, doors, etc …). Some of us do not like bases but homes. So everything would be so perfect if we had this buiding pieces.

Oh and we need toilets and bathtubs. Their absence is TOTALLY breaking my immersion… my thralls have had WAY too much gruel to be healthy.

Atmosphere.

Give us a couple of place-able “sound” items.

Allow us to toggle through a set of “noises” that will play in a loop when players are near.

Perhaps allow us to set a “value”, such as intensity, range, volume.

Examples…

Tavern Mug - Plays audible laughter, jibber jabber, drunken shenanigans. Suits a pub/kitchen/eatery.

Saddle - Plays horse related sounds, neighing, braying, trotting, snorts. Suits a stable.

Torture Tools - Plays sounds of suffering, weariness, broken spirited moans, metal clangs and shackles. Compliments the wheel of pain. (Or gives similar sound effect without the Wheel of Pain.)

Musical Notes - Plays songs from various instruments, or a combination of them. Suitable for taverns, or a lounge of sorts.

Stone/Branch/Water Bowl - Ambiance. Plays selected natural ambiance. Howling Wind, Flowing Water, Thunder Storms, Creaking Forests.

Witches Spice Rack - Plays the sounds of a bubbling cauldron (much like a fire-bowl cauldron) but can be placed in more restricted areas, on walls, or on a stove.

Bait Post - A post to hang a small basket of fishing bait on. Provides flopping fish sounds, a splish, a splash.

Dancer’s Rug - (Female-Male version) Provides playful taunts, manly grunts, inviting giggles.

Scarf ‘n’ Barf Bowl - Bowl for the hogs of the house. Where men eat, belch then gasp for air just to do it again and again.

Bugs - Bugs!

Birds - Birds!

You get the idea, the concept is pretty wide ranging, and could re-use a lot of existing sound effects in new objects to create immersive (player created) environments.

This could be a single item, with access to a multitude of skins (and sound effects). Or it could be multiple items, with individual skins and specific sound effects.

Additionally, a few customization options after placing it could really make these compliment a base nicely.

Creativity is king!

I agree to all especially to the library think. You know i collect the little statues that you take from the warmakers dungeon. Always the one with the book is over my fireplace decorating it beautifully. If i had library inside my bedroom, OMG i would be so happy :heart_eyes::heart_eyes::heart_eyes::heart_eyes:

Really nice suggestions.

Naked thralls who coincidentally look a lot like Valentina Shevchenko.

Please don’t judge me.

So in retrospect:

Floor decorations. I’m thinking like mosaics, an impluvium to go with my compluvium (pool for collecting water under a hole in a greek/roman house roof), sunken fish pond and on that note, a raised fish pond.

I would love all that. My home is also pretty much a horror movie setting. I could go for hanging chains, furniture made of bones and I really wish that the Darfari skull on pike that lights up actually would light up. They do, a bit, but not like a light source does.
