Sunshine Co-op build

This is my first SS town build. I'm gonna post up pics as it progresses along. I don't have Scrap Everything running, for some reason it really messes up my game. So all the original stuff that can't be scrapped is still there. FYI, I play in 1080p, and all my screenshots are up on Flickr in full size. Browsing + comments are welcome.

These are the very first buildings I made. I took the pic after I put up a wind generator. Out in back of the log A frame is one of the original shacks.

A couple farm buildings...

Overhead view from a guard tower. The jumble of foundations is deliberate.

The next couple days were kinda busy in Sunshine. I figured out how to use the Architct's square, and probably the biggest pain now is getting settlers. Mac got dressed up and made a speech in front of an herb house. She said she was planning on building a house of her own to stay in, so as not to inconvenience the locals.

After her chat, the light was fading fast. A couple new residences got built, plus a new Brahmin farm. Another wind generator went up along with a guard shack.

Things are slowly coming along at Sunshine. SS is now up to v 2.x, and some of the mods are updated as well. Here's a pic of Mac's new house. The brahmin pen has already upgraded since I took this shot.

It's upwind of the brahmin pens next door. The house is a prefab from the Snappy HouseKit by robboten. Kinda small on the inside, but the foundation is included and the porch extends all the way around. I'm thinking of adding a stairway to get up there, then installing a turret or two . I'll add another couple pics soon, I've gotten notices that stuff has been upgraded there.
 
I am running out of space! This view shows that off fairly well. That treeline, guardpost and bare parts are all pretty much just inside the build area. Having those old camp buildings present is becoming a pain.

I added a few creature comforts to Mac's house. These two shots are up on the second floor. A simple place to sleep, and store some clothes on one side of the room....

This is opposite of the bed. One of the chairs is surgery, and the other is for hair. These are add on chairs from a mod. Going to Fenway every time every time a girl needs fresh hair and makeup isn't a realistic option. The lighting is essential to see exactly what you are doing in the makeup chair.

Here's the downstairs. There's not much room down here. Fits 2 people...comfy. 4 people starts to feel cramped, and 5 or 6 is almost unplayable.

Sunshine in the AM... most of these structures are lvl 2 or 3 already.

That first flat roofed building is the barracks.... lets see what's on the post.

Inside.... must be.... empty? Hell no. The guards are all in here instead of being on post! A swift application of a jump boot or office hours will fix that shit.

This is a peek inside the front door of the milking shed. The smell is there.... and the yummy fresh milk is in the workshop. I put in a fridge near the workshop bench. Someone made a post about attacks/ defense and what's available in the workshop to grab if you lose the battle. Solution? I think taking the produced food, milk and water out of the workshop will help. Don't know if it's gonna work, but we shall see.
