I love you so hard.
Could you make some landing beacons which project a flashing line a pretty large distance into the sky? That would make positioning a dropship over a base for delivery less risky due to it removing the problem of low-altitude flight.

I don't think I could do beacons, sadly... See, if a glow's particle is offscreen, then the glow isn't displayed, meaning that the beacon wouldn't be visible until you were within a screen of the pad. It might be possible to make a spotlight/beacon/whatever that shot glow particles into the air in a big stream, but I don't have the faintest idea how to do that, or if it's even possible.

But not all is lost: I just got done making little orange-flashing warning lights to put in your landing bays. Not beacons, but they sure are pretty and noticeable.

EDIT: I may be onto something. And it'd be a hell of a lot less laggy than a massive glow-shooter, too. Would a thin, glowing beam work for you?

Very, ver nice bunker tiles! And even nicer lights! Very creative and genuine. Nice glows, too.

Yes yes yes it would work excellently.
Also warning lights are awesome.

Just lay down the full slope, then place the straight wall over it:

Alternatively, stick an inner corner between them:

I love you in a non-gay way! This is absolutely awesome, you are my current Master of bunkermodules. Now, go invent a better door!

Better door... Well, I'd have a lot to learn before I could make doors, but I guess it'd be a good thing to add to TBT... What could be improved over normal doors?

different thicknesses, different looking styles stuff like that. I'll be happy what ever your next update is, even if its just adding 1 more light type. Go forth, king of bunker tiles, and shake the foundations of the world with awesomeness! I'll see what you have accomplished after i return from my 10 day vacation. Bye every1!!
