Category:Structures

Structures are constructions or other formations that are generated during world creation. They may contain loot or other resources useful for the early game.

Land Structures

These are the structures that can be found in most biomes.

Radio

The Radio is a two-story cement brick building that appears to be a run down and long-abandoned radio station.

Broadcasting Tower

Broadcasting towers are the tallest structures to find in the mod, consisting of a blistering amount of steel, red copper, and tungsten deco blocks. However it can be somewhat difficult to harvest all of the blocks due to the vertical nature of the tower.

Satellite Dish

An imposing satellite dish with a control center underneath, full of highly useful loot. A particularly valuable structure to find throughout a playthrough.

Silo

The silo is an abandoned, multilevel missile silo buried in the ground, accompanied by a small bunker complex. Many of the concrete blocks are damaged or mossy, despite this, the silo still functions fine. However, you will need silo launch code pieces, a rare drop from hostile mobs. They are single use, and 8 of them can be combined into launch codes, which are required to launch the missile found in the silo.

Factory

The Factory is a self-explanatory structure that's seen better days. You can enter through the brick archways at the front or use the back door. Inside, it serves as a simple base template and offers some useful starter loot, machines, and resources.

Meteor Dungeon

The Meteor Dungeon is a very rare structure that can be found on the surface in non-ocean biomes. The presence of entire blocks of starmetal and red crates make this a valuable destination, but can be very hazardous to unprepared players. It is highly recommended to have an electric set of armor for exploring these locations, as tesla coils can rapidly kill an unprotected player.

Rural House

Rural houses are wooden structures found in forests and along rivers. They consist of three rooms: a living area, a bedroom, and an attic. The previous occupant may have been some sort of survivalist judging from the weapon and repair parts found in the attic upstairs.

Lab

The Lab is a small building made out of Über Concrete, that is constantly turning into moldy debris. The lab can only found in the plains biome.

Library Dungeon

The Library Dungeon is a structure quite similar to a vanilla dungeon and can spawn in any biome underground. The structure looks somewhat like the mob dungeon mixed with the library of the stronghold.

Spaceship

The spaceship is a crashed space vehicle that contains quite a lot of early game loot.

Antenna

Antennas are structures that are comprised of decoration blocks and have one loot chest.

Signal Beacon

The signal beacon is a structure that spawns everywhere in the overworld. It resembles an old, broken lantern. It is composed of 2 blocks: the beacon itself and a lootpile containing the Signal Beacon Instruction Guide Book.

Dud

Duds are apparent bombs that failed to detonate before hitting the ground (hence the name), most likely as a result of some kind of war long ago. They come in 4 variants: "balefire", "TNT", "nuclear", and "salted".

Desert Structures

These are structures that generate only in deserts.

Desert Atom

Desert Atoms are large structures present in dry desert-like biomes that consists of a barbed wire fence enclosing a nuclear reactor compound containing a cooling tower, a waste barrel storage site, a damaged concrete building, and a nuclear reactor containment vessel. The entire site is littered with raw nuclear waste barrels and thus is immensely radioactive which all but totally prohibits entry into it without strong radiation protection.

Ancient Pyramid

Ancient pyramids (or tombs) are structures of an ancient civilization lost to time and unknown to us. They are long-term nuclear waste isolation sites meant to discourage intrusion and prevent leakage of the waste.

Vertibird

The Vertibird is what appears to be a VTOL aircraft structure that resembles the V-22 Osprey. It contains two loot chests.

Crashed Vertibird

The crashed Vertibird is a crashed presumed VTOL aircraft (resembling the V-22 Osprey) that contains two useful loot chests.

Barrel

Barrels are broken down tanks containing stereotypical green ooze.

Ocean Structures

These are structures that generate within vast oceans.

Oil Rig

Oil rigs are huge structures found towering over the ocean, with four large columns supporting the main drilling superstructure, a sub-platform area, a main bridge room with two floors, a small office and storage area, and two on platform cranes.

Aircraft Carrier

Aircraft carriers are large sunken ships that, before their current state submerged underneath the surface, would have fielded fighter aircraft. The presence of an angled flight deck for launching and an aircraft elevator indicates that this is a post-WW2 design.

Lighthouse

Lighthouses are tall structures found dotted around the ocean, generally used by sailors for navigation. This one, however, is in a state of disrepair and the light no longer functions due to a loss of power, due to the RTGs in the basement having long burnt out. Somewhat valuable for the weak RTG fuel found within.

Jungle Structures

These are structures that generate under the thick canopies of jungles.

Enargite Temple

The Enargite Temple is a structure added by Nuclear Tech Mod.
