I've been building this for several days now and it's slowly turning into something i've wanted to make for ages. A city far above clouds, inspired by System Shock 2, Bioshock, Star Wars and a lot of my own imagination and random decisions. Thanks to some nice op (sorry i forgot the name ) who promoted me to [Builder] so i can quickly build stuff that would otherwise taken me forever to build.
You can find Skylake City on the main BuildBox map, just follow the big "E" statue and then the white tram rails up to the city.
Future plans:
- Power plant (either on sugar cane fuel, water turbines or solar powered)
- Airship dock with airships (we can meet if anyone can build nice looking ones) DONE!
- Airfiled (probably next to the Airship dock)
- Add a flying helicopter above Skylake Tower DONE!
- Finish both tram stations from the BuildBox spawn up to my city
- Completion of the Skylake Tower lobby with all the roads
Skylake City elevator
Full fledged and operational pistons design elevator which doesn't work due to server lag (bummer).
Skylake City Grand Oak
Multistory oak. It's big, thats wh it's called Grand Oak.
Skylake Lake
Lake in the sky. You don't see that every day...
Skylake Central Park
Still a bit rough around the edges but it's there, you can also find smaller parks all over the city.
Skylake City Sugar Cane Farm
Main plant for sugar manufacturing wbich is the main ingredient for the candies :)
Skylake Tower
30 floors, 127 apartments, stairs all the way to the top where you can also find the helipad. Apartments are ready for the citizens (furniture not supplied).
Skylake Water Condensation Unit
Since there are no rivers in the sky, this condensation unit is generating a pure liquid water for the entire city.

The promised helicopter...
It looked better in my mind but you soon realize the blocks size does limit you a bit when making smaller things...
Skylake Airship Port
Let me first state that i did NOT made these airships. I've copied them from the BuildBox area. If the original builder is reading this, please drop a line so i can add proper credits on the map and here.
