1x1 Starter

by Tea Time

1x1 Starter is a solo/duo Rust base design in the Tea Time base library, built from 38 building entities. Measured from the blueprint: 3 storeys, single building. Materials run about 3.7k wood, 4.1k stone, 1.7k metal frags, 20 HQM. A base this size fits the Twig plot (3,000 entities). Study the foundation footprint below, then connect to The Greenhouse — Tea Time's free creative build server — and rebuild it yourself with unlimited resources, free plots and no wipes.

The classic solo starter. One foundation, honeycombed - cheap, fast, and the footprint every Rust base grows out of.
