Baba Yaga’s house. Modern style
“Hey my wheelchair bound friend wants to visit.” “Um… uh… well… Do you think they will mind sleeping in their car?”
It’s not a war against different enemy types. It’s a war against their pathfinding.
This is the only actual answer.
Just need to replace those four supports with a single pillar made out of soap, cut down all that disgusting greenery, and pump a bit of magma about to brighten the place up, and you’d have the beginnings of a respectable fortress. The obsidian-and-steel scheme is a nice touch.
goddamn quadrupedal chicken leg house
But it looks pretty.
No, it looks too common, for example, I had a labyrinthine house where I miraculously found the right rooms, and it was built in a zigzag.
that platform could just be a huge scissor lift to get things like for large appliances, furniture, and their mom.
Don’t talk about my mom that way! What did she ever do to you?
It would be faster to list the things she hasn’t done to me
Whelp, that’s enough internet for me today.
How does plumbing work for this house?
Hole in the bottom for poop.
This is actually just a really nice out-house.
I’m pretty sure there is a central pipe in between the 4 legs at the center of the house. That must carry the pipes.
And those pipes connect to where? Gopher holes? This doesn’t seem like it’s close to any municipal utilities. I suppose it could go to some kind of septic system? It all seems pretty inconvenient. Looks neat though.
There is plenty of space under and around it to be able to have a old style septic/leach-field setup. We use that style at my house still since theres no public utility. Basically all a septic is is a big tank buried underground (although in some cases as long as you had some form of liner to prevent cave in you could use that) and then a outflow to send the liquids to a leach-field.
In a post apcolyptic scenario I expect that hardest part of that would be actually pumping or removing the solid waste when the tank is full, would likely need to be a manual pump.
getting water that high though is going to need a pump as well.
If you maintain the bacteria and don’t flush heavy paper products (and definitely not wipes!), a properly designed septic can go decades without needed pumping.
ah i think you are right. it’s obscured by the front leg so i didn’t see it.
That’s what the small balcony is for.
It’s called a poop deck
Good question…
Good thinking for the zombie apocalypse. Less optimal for bringing your groceries in each day / week.
As an imediate solution yes, but for long time living in an apocalypse not really. It’s missing a balcony or outdoor place that could be turned into a farm. Otherwise you will keep needing to go.out for groceries in the midle of an apocalypse
I mean it’s the same as living up in any ol’ apartment building without lift
And I don’t think zombies know how to operate elevators.
Idk, zombies would have a lot of space to pile up around the struts, and that structure looks way easier to pull down than a normal foundation
The best base design I found in 7 Days to Die was to do essentially this, but dig a pit down to bedrock underneath the house. The zombies pile up around it, push each other in, and die. If your supports are far enough away, they don’t get attacked (you basically want to make an A-shaped design, rather than an H.)
Obviously, since 7 Days to Die is a perfect simulation of an actual zombie apocalypse, this is the optimal real-life solution, as well.
So basically a dry moat. I wonder if you could compost those zombies with some sort of Hügelkultur setup. Would composting the zombies destroy the pathogen responsible for the zombification process? Could produce grown from that eventually contribute to immunity to the zombie pathogen? Maybe they could address this in the inevitable sequel, 7 Years to Die (co-produced by Danny Boyle).
Zombies don’t reproduce right? So at some point you have to run out of humans for them to turn. Seems like it wouldn’t take very long for them to all die off.
The cage around the staircase is too much I think, it looks too massive next to the house. Would be prettier open with just a railing
Sounds like something a zombie would say!
Goddamn zombies. Goddamn greydwarves.
greydwarves
They’re annoying until you need their eyes to make a portal network…
Find spawner. Dig pit under spawner. Put tamed wolves in pit. Never ate so much eyescream.
I’m assuming the real purpose of this house is the view over the trees rather than protection.
I assumed it was to cope with heavy snowfall but that makes sense too.
Awesome birdhouse, with some changes.
