This is a CPU compliant variant of my Farther Point iteration of jrandall's excellent Far Point Outpost. It unlocks at level 7 and is CPU tier 2 with plenty of headroom to upgrade.
** It's not actually floating - it's a CPU joke**

Change List from original: ~ It has had the cargo containers switched out for two 160,000su controllers. There are a few 'normal' cargo boxes for overflow. Everything is named and color coded. ~ 9 of the solar panels have been replaced with the large ones and oriented flat so that the only angled ones are towards the front of the base. I've also added a second solar capacitor ~ I've reworked the 2 constructor area to be one constructor and one deconstructor complete with a dedicated deconstruct cargo controller. There is also a small constructor for processing ores ~ The turrets were switched to retractable and raised a block to provide better line of site over a wider angle ~ The underside of the base has had a solid layer of blocks added to assist with structural stability on uneven terrain. I've added a white border line around that extra layer to let you know how deep to sink it in. Page Down until you can't see the line. ~ Some texturing inconsistencies have been addressed along with some personal preference changes to textures/colors. ~ Wireless controller has been added ~ CPU Extension has been added ~ Sensor based lighting has been added throughout ~ Many (all?) sensors have had their area of influence adjusted ~ Fridges relocated to follow the input/output method used in alpha 9 and to be consistent with how the constructor is setup
I think that's everything - there's likely some other small tweaking here and there from the original. Let me know if you like what I've done!
**update - I've added sentry guns to deal with those pesky base attacks that make it past the cannons **double special update - removed 9th sentry - should be block limit compliant now!
