                                                               SketchUp.com

        SketchUp is 3D modeling game where you can build whatever you can think of, It does get tough when you try to build things that are not square. There are lots of tutorials out there that can help you be a pro at this game.

                                                             

The most useful and the tool you will use the most is the rectangle tool. It used to start off any build you have especially if you are building a house like I will. The point of the rectangle tool is to create an equal rectangle which can be used as a base to the house.

The push/pull tool is used to make your 2D image into a 3D image. So for a house it can be used as the walls and you could add more detail by adding doors and windows.

The line tool is used to connect a shape to another or be used to make the roof even and look like a house.

The move tool lets you make different shapes and move certain lines around on a creation you have made. These tools are the tools you will use in most if not all your creations in SkethUp.

Tips and Tricks

-You could use the line or rectangle tool and free hand the measurements but when you have made a square you can type in the measurements yourself and have the square be exact.But there are different  types of measurements so be aware of what kind of measure you have.

-You can copy an object by clicking on the object and pressing "CTRL" and it will make a direct copy.

-There are components and there are groups which lets you make a change to one component and it changes all.

-You can import an existing creation by exporting it as a Collada file and importing into another creation so you can have both.

Day-5 Review

Today is the last day of planetbase and I changed my strategy to try and be bold. So what I did was I made the biggest structure possible whenever I had the chance but unfortunately I found that, it keeps the colonists alive but unfortunately you run out of resources too quickly and can not expand fast enough.

This game is very time consuming but what I find is when you play you never even look at the time because you want to continue playing and eventually beat the game. It takes a couple tries but once you get the hang of what's important and what's not the game is way more fun. This game is quite enjoyable if you have the time but be prepared to lose because this game will not let you win on the first try. I like the game and recommend you try it out because it's worth it. The more time you spend on this game the more fun you will have. To play you must have a bit of patience because if not this game can get ugly fast, But if you can wait it out Planetbase is worth a try.

Day-4 PlanetBase reults

So I used my plan and so far today it has worked I have doubled in colonists and am very excited. There are a lot of sandstorms and meteors so I built a telescope to see incoming dangers. Like I predicted food is always a problem and yet again it was today.

So since I was out of food I needed to make some key trades to keep alive. I would say food and power are you biggest enemy in the game. Lots of times there would be a sandstorm and my turbines would spin too fast to make any energy. I found that once you have been surviving for awhile your colonists become unhappy so to fix that I made a structure that I thought would never be necessary, which is a Bar. Once it was made it made a huge impact on the colony. In this game you have to sustain the oxygen and once you succeed with that you may begin expanding on your colony. I am three quarters of the way to 20 colonists. I have been trying to get milestones to play the harder levels but I am yet to even get one.

Day-4 PlanetBase-Plan

Today, the plan is to not rush anything. Take it one structure at a time and make sure all the essentials are made first and fully operational. Often with this game food is always a problem and if you are low on food trading is key, so I will try and make a good trade that benefits me. Today I am aiming for another 20 colonists.

Day-3 Review

For starters you need an Airlock, Oxygen generator but to have the oxygen generator work you need a water extractor and an energy generator. The key is when you start out do not make any structure bigger. You start small and maintain your resources and then you can expand. With crops I wanted to have wheat first because wheat is key to make other sources. Focus on one structure at a time because if you don't than all the workers will be spread out and not actually build anything.

This is my colony and I made a mistake of asking to build too many structures at one time.

This game is very time consuming and it can go south fast. I enjoy the game but once you run out of energy and watch all your colonists die of starvation, it is no longer fun because you must start again.

Day-2 Preview

So today, I played the tutorial and I have a bit of feedback.

The tutorial is very simple but it gives you the essentials you need to play the real game. The camera controls you use are WASD which lets you move forward and backward and QE is used to rotate the camera around.

In the game you start with 7 people and 2 robots. What you have to do is create structures and add components in those structures to make the colony function. To start you want to build an oxygen generator and a solar panel so your colonists have oxygen and energy to run the oxygen generator,.

Every time you create a building you must connect all buildings so your colonists can maneuver through all the buildings. Some key buildings you need to make are a Dorm because your colonists will get tired and need a place to sleep. You will also need a bio dome so you can grow crops and maintain a stable food supply for your colonist. Another key building is the sick bay where those who are sick have a place to heal. A mine is important because you need resources to expand your colony.

Although the tutorial makes you do everything in a specific way it gives you the knowledge you need about Planetbase. Unfortunately in the tutorial you do not get to make any decisions yourself.

Now I have finished the tutorial, now its time to play the real Planetbase

DAY-1 Reveal

To start off, I watched the tutorial and a walk through

Planet base seems to be another simulation game like 3rd world farmer and the goal is to create and maintain a stable environment/ community. There are 4 levels obviously one is harder than the other  and above are some of the colonists that may appear in your colony

In this game you will need to create a stable community, by building homes, finding oxygen, food, water and expanding so your community can grow 

You must also survive natural disasters that may damage your community, After doing some research and watching some tutorials and videos I feel this game will be very tedious but worth it in the end. It may take time to get a stable colony but once you do the game will become more exciting. The atmosphere of all the planets seem very realistic and this game will be challenging 

 

Here are some of the videos I used to understand the game

                      In this photo, I change the world settings to superflat to make it easier for building but to change it you must click single player once you have the option and create new world, and after you should see a 'more world option" and World type is at the top right of the screen.

In this photo, I began creating a spaceship and I also used it to show how I take screenshots.

In this photo, at the bottom right it confirms where my screenshot went. Instead of hitting "F2" i just hit the "print screen" button and it drops the screenshots directly into my dropbox for easier access.

In this photo, I finished my spaceship and to do so I made an equal shape for the base and built up to a certain height using quartz and red stained clay, after that I added the landing legs and added some fire to show that it has blasted off.I also added glass to make sure it has a bit of light.

After your minecraft creation has been built you must go to google photos and once there, there is a cloud with an arrow next to the search bar, after you click it you are able to download your photos into 1 album and view them

In this photo, I am at Picasa Web and it uses the album from Google photos and it is now at Picasa Web, Once you have found the correct album you click on the image of the album. After that you should see all your photos, once you see them click on the first one and underneath that photo it will say "Add Caption" and you add a caption for every single photo. 

After you would share the album and embed it, You copy the link and post on your blog
