Planet Naboo!!! I like the contrast of old traditional mediterranean architecture combined with starships!

Red flag everywhere.....lol Welcome to the Socialiste Internationale de Simtropolis comrade :-P this might help too: http://motherlandofsimtropolis.dudyconstructor.com/forums/index.php?gid=60

And a new BAT - Artificial photosynthesis Plant, RubiscoNanomech CynChloro P570 http://www.yuhisa.com/cgi/c-board/c-board.cgi?cmd=one;no=106;id= http://www.yuhisa.com/cgi/c-board/file/APP-PSIII.zip

The Carbon Cycle in Zanapolis The per-capita annual carbon dioxide emission of Zanapolis is negative 1.7 metric tons, implying that the city has to import carbon by some means. Exhaustion of petroleum reserves and complete transformation into hydrogen economy during the Digital Age had profound effect in the carbon cycle of Zanapolis. Artificial photosynthesis Artificial photosynthesis and production of synthetic starch is one of the main operations of RubiscoNanomech Ltd. The company formerly used genetically engineered strain of bacteria and algae, but they were gradually replaced by chloroplast-mimic synthetic system. Carbohydrates produced in this way is processed to produce artificial flour, which makes up 30% of all carbohydrates consumed in the city. The breakthrough that made RubiscoNanomech to adopt chloroplast mimic is the invention of Photosystem III using P570 reaction center. Chloroplasts of natural origin contain P700 and P680 reaction centers, utilizing only red and blue light, but the invention of P570-based Photosystem III succeeded in harnessing the energy of green light. With this improved method, the photoreceptive part of an artificial photosynthesis apparatus nowadays look black than green, as lights of all frequencies are utilized. Because of its high carbon demand, a high CO2 content input such as the exhausts from natural gas power plant is frequently used. (The Absorption spectrum of P570 - It's absorption band is complementary to that of naturally occuring Chlorophyll a and Chlorophyll b) The maximum absorption occurs at the wavelength of 570nm (green-yellow). The combination of all three photosystems absorb virtually all components of visible light and the plant appear black. Integrated highrise farming Traditionally and even today, agriculture takes place where consumption do not take place. (Such places are called countrysides). This always has been a noxious adition to the carbon footprint for food production. Integrated highrise farming developed by Integriculture Inc. removed the land value constraints of agriculture and made farming possible in city centers. To run an integrated highrise farm, a constant supply of water, fertilizers and CO2 are needed, and they mostly come from sewege treatment plant and biological garbage processing facilities built below the city. Cellulose and starch-containing biological wastes are often converted into biofuels (mainly ethanol) on-site to enter the petrochemical process. (Integrated Highrise Farms, Ward of Byakkopolis) Biological garbage processing Most of the carbon-based synthetic fibers produced in Zanapolis are designed to be bio-degradable. For non-biodegradable organic polymers such as polystyrene and polyethene, bacteria is genetically engineered to decompose such polymers. The city government encourages trash pre-sort to citizens, and those who do pre-sort are paid and who don’t are charged upon garbage collection. Refuses are broadly sorted into 4 categories: carbon-based, silicon based (ceramics, glass, rocks etc), metal based and composites. Among these 4, carbon-based garbage goes to biological garbage processing, turning into hydrocarbons (mainly methane gas) and residues by the work bacteria in a large underground processing chamber. The hydrocarbons are sold to petrochemical industries and the residue is often converted into fertilizers. Corporate laboratories of biological garbage processing industry mainly focus on the development of superior bacteria, to produce purer methane gas and more nutrient-rich residues in shorter time. (Entrance to the underground garbage treatment facility and methane purification plants, Ward of Solaris VIA) Nuclear and fossil fuel power joint management for CO2 production The demand for CO2 is high in Zanapolis, but it makes up only 400ppm of Planet Arista 4’s atmosphere. Since extraction of CO2 from atmosphere is rather uneconomical, burning of hydrocarbons are often used as an alternate source of CO2. This part of the carbon cycle resembles to industry of the Petroleum Age, except the exhaust is collected rather than released into the atmosphere. Fossil fuel power plants are often jointly managed with nuclear power plants, so that when CO2 is in need, the output of a fossil fuel power plant is increased while that of nuclear power plant is decreased. (Methane power plant, Ward of Reka Persei 2) Methane and CO2 Carbon fixation and "Carbon Industry" Petrochemical industry during the Petroleum Age used crude oil as the main source of carbon, with ethylene and naphtha being the primary product. On the other hand, modern “petrochemical industry” (now called ‘carbon industry’ uses methane and CO2 as the source of carbon, with methanol and acetic acid being the primary products. The process is commonly called “carbon fixation”. Either advanced lanthanide catalysts or genetically engineered bacteria is used to carry out carbon fixation and partial oxidation. Petrochemical industry was forced to transform itself at the beginning of the Digital Age, when economically viable crude oil reserves of Planet Arista 4 virtually exhausted. Since then, petroleum has not been used, and the nomenclature changed from “petrochemical industry” to broader “carbon industry”. Yet, some companies revisit petroleum as an economical carbon source today. Some companies already import petroleum from other planets. (Liquified Natural Gas imported from other planets, Ward of Iteza-A) And to ensure a reliable supply of fossil fuels, Lyra Emsembla does its best!

hmm.... more roofjunks and details?

What I wonder is, what about Muslim version of creatinism, Greek myth version, Japanese myth version, Zoroastrian version, Hindu version and Chinese Daoist versions? For me, the Biblical version is nothing more than "just one of them". And I doubt if anybody is militaristic enough to say "Biblical version is the truth and Muslim version is a lie"

Your city-building skills are clearly improving!!

Happy ID4!

WOW!! Did you model that thing?? Where are all the 3D stuff from? You should release those starplanes! (then, I could use that in my CJ, saying that we have a visitor from Atlantica) Nice to see another Cyberdrome rising!

Wow.... just ready the past few updates, and BANG!!! A saga of deep space, the Star League Way! Will there be a war between two planets!!??

Does this do?

What I still don't understand is, why do people keep on saying "Evolution is impossible as it violates the 2nd law of thermodynamics" although it is refuted everywhere, hundreds of thousands of times all over the world?? Get back to high school physics book and there is the answer. Somebody must be systematically pumping in this blatant lie and propaganda into innocent fresh-minded (but soon to be educated) people..... No wonder USA's manufacturing industry and technology is losing against Europe, Japan and even China and India.

Which terrain texture did you use to make the plain grass green on the second picture of 06/30/2007 06:00 PM update?

@Leech10 So, the hull is covered with borosilicate foam tiles to make it ready for re-entry and block some of lasers. But the next generation combat starships would probably have a liquid mirror layer on top. @football_fever Thanks! You probably know who those intruders were... @crushedcar So, if you find those Zanapolis ships in football_fever's CJ, there is the story behind... @His Divine Hand When I design, I concentrate all my ideas to "how to make it cool". I always draw on paper first. Of course, I can't get the one I want with one shot, so I do some modifications, and as I do so, sooner or later I encounter this moment - "eureka! This is what I want!!!" and here you go, a blueprint on paper. Then, all I have to do is to BAT according to it. You could copy my style!

Incredible beauty!!! It is rivaled only by Istrinia!

lol You got it right! East Asia is all about "crowd"

Another movie CJ here!!! Why don't you post your CJ movies on http://www.theplanningpages.com/index.php?action=tpmod;dl=upload ? (and you could also go for movie team there...)

That is such a complicated modelling...... :-0

Growables - that can be collected from various sources, e.g. orange project on BLaM.

Wow, some political phase shift going on here

Not only bacteria, pigs evolved out of wild boars and Japanese cherry blossom evolved out of wild species, all in man's historical timescale.

Gradually curved hiways and avenues are incredibly realistic!!! (well, if it's realistic, how can it be "not credible"??? nvm...) lol

Ward of Procyon Estuary, AE1454 Day 322 Time900 - Quantum Cascade Laser Tower, radio transmission room - (all heard through videophone) The first two of our promising next generation cosmocruisers.........it is so ironic that even our best technologies can't make us safe........ as long as we fight ourselves! Petroleum Age, Digital Age and Modern Age, whatever thing we've invented, things never got better! An age-old Laozi legend of Chinese say, "Ones with machines have affairs, and ones with affairs have worryings" ............... hm? Who are they? No-one other than us should be here and their appearance is so unfamiliar. Are they from here or perhaps Zanonean Kingdom? .................. ....!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Intruders!!! We are taking fire!!! flash - flash - flash ---------------BANG What!!?? Our lasers are not doing any good!!! Who are they!!?? Don't doodle around - grab a microphone!! "THIS IS ZANAPOLIS COSMOFORCE GROUND SECURITY FORCE, DECLARE YOUR IDENTITY!!" Flash! f"#$%! They are not stopping! "THIS IS ZANAPOLIS COSMOFORCE GROUND SECURITY FORCE, DECLARE YOUR IDENTITY!!" BANG!!! "THIS IS ZANAPOLIS COSMOFORCE GROUND SECURITY FORCE, DECLARE YOUR IDENTITY!!" Hold! They are answering!!! ----------------------"WE ARE NOT FROM THIS PLANET!!" Wow... aliens.... Ain't the time for your lame jokes bastard! M'aidez! m'aidez! m'aidez! We are outnumbered!!!!!! BANG! bzzzzzz......... Emergency! Repeating, declaring emergency, one of our Cosmocruisers were hijacked by unknown hostile party. Immediate actions necessary - Action procedure A Action procedure A!!?? Immediate destruction!!?? We can't let our newest cosmocruiser to fall into enemy hands! Who is that "enemy"? Zanonean Kingdom? Yalnans? Some rebellious faction? Visitors from the stars. eh...... in that case, why do they have any affairs with us? Not your question. Main quantum cascade amplifier, to maximum output! 3.....2.....1...... FIRE!!!!! TARGET HIT!!! Target southbound, descending! But it is kinda strange... they are not firing at us. If they want to run away with the ship, surely the must do something. CRACK CRACK CRACK...... THUMP! Touchdown, touchdown, Ward of Sekitan Bukuro! Special Assault Team (SAT) on the way! .......bzzzz....ggggg....gzzgzgz.......This is SAT, nobody is in the ship! The ship is completely empty!!!! The intruders have vanished!!
