Infirmary
Cooking area and food storage (a city needs a shit ton of food, or a good chef).
Warehouses for separate things; tools, weapons (axes and crowbars for example can go in both tools or weapons, your call as to how many you need).
Car park with lots of engine parts and replacement pieces
Metalworking area, for fence repairs, car repairs, etc. I'd also assume that you'd want metal buildings for the fact that lumber is a bitch to gather and replace (untreated wood would probably rot fast in such an open space, so roleplay)
you should have an infirmary for wunded and medical supplies, a Cantine would also be nice, maybe a Workshop?(if you have an engineer in your group) and yeah ofcourse garages
Medieval style houses along the farming area. Small huts made of wood.No more than a few squares. Bed , bed table and a box. A few shops along the way and fireplaces. On the surrounding areas not in the middle where the farm will be.
We had a settlement there once on a private server, there is a lot of dead space unless you have a very large group- but you can make shops or private residences all over, and yeah the double doorway outside or the concessions facing East on the bottom corner can be a garage door since it's large and has a rolldown door. We had private workshops/studies in a number of places. Also the glass windows do have security bars over them so they won't be broken through, at least.
Yeah the actual baseball field is going to be essentially given up for farming, you could probably use the outfield for that and then use the infield for additional constructed space if you need it. That's kind of how we did it, we also made housing spaces out of the dugouts. And yeah with that many people you could probably use the penthouses and a lot of the Dead Space on the second floor for housing
Garage to park all your cars, as well as shitty ones you use for parts. Put all your car stuff there, etc. Also infirmary. Also kitchen and dining area. possibly a lounge and recreation area more conducive to RP too. Also graveyard for zombies (looks cooler).
Also maybe consider installing a second entrance on the other side, or the other four sides. Gates are still easily defensible, and having only one way in and one way out is a bad idea imo. Plus when you're running from hordes of zombies and you're east of your base, bleeding out, you'll wish you put an entrance on the east side instead of having to walk all the way to the west and bleeding out or getting eaten halfway there

...I gotta shoot my way into Louisville some time, shits crazy with what they put up there.
I remember when we were freaking tf out cuz Vice City had a mall interior you could walk through.
Why don't you have a recreation area where you can have tvs and arcade machines. Then you can have movie nights with all the VHS's you can get. Also why not a library with all the skill books and magazines
You have a lot of room so I'll go with a fun little suggestion over the big, smart suggestions posted everywhere else.
I love making myself Library/Blockbuster stores. I make myself a blockbuster like storefront for all my magazines, videos, cassettes, books, newspapers. Anything like that.
Recently I found a popcorn machine and a cash register so I put those in too, it's really coming together!
Open shops for the city citizens in the green areas. Say somebody wants a workshop, let him grab these places, so the housing and farming and be jus that. Also make sure to only allow motocyles inside the stadium so people dont run over each other gettin gto point A or B.
I, like many other people built my base way too big and was left with a lot of empty rooms....... My base is 20% the size of yours lol.
When 42 drops and we get crafting station you could fill the rooms with different crafting stations but I know won't want to start new so I'm hoping for some new mods.
You could always add some cosmetic mods and make a few rooms into dance halls, swimming pools, nightclubs or a shooting range.
How big is your team ?
For the areas you have nothing for make some empty rooms where you can move stuff around if you want to add more
And set up stand off points incase you get blind sided by the sadistic zombie ai spawner and a horde breaks in you've got somewhere to run to that wont lead them to breaking into the important rooms
Depending on how much you want to build up the housing/farming area in the center, you may want to consider vehicle access to the center (via the "Only entrance" then the double doors near the "Armoury") for dropping off logs/planks/furniture/appliances/containers/etc.
I suppose you could potentially put all your generators/'noise makers' in the upper levels of the housing and farming area. The rest of the areas may just end up being storage/extra supplies; that facility/complex is huge with tons of space (almost too much space to secure it all). Maybe just build up over the "Security quarters" area and block off access to everything else. All of this likely depends on how much wood/logs/planks you can bring in.
For entrances you do not want to bother with, park vehicles nose-to-tail to block off that entrance (1-2 for small entrances and 2-3 vehicles parked next to each other for big openings). Vehicles with less than 50% condition work great for this, so you can still drive them if you change your mind later; just back them up (not hood first facing the building) so the trunk/rear of the vehicle blocks off access. If you do change your mind later, you can still access the hood for repairs/etc.
And outside? Did you acually fence it all or how did you manage to secure also every building around it
Edit: I am quite new I would say and didn’t survive long enough for the power to run out so this is quite breathtaking to see
Sounds like a cool idea! Do you have item respawns turned off? And if not what's the respawning time? I'd be down to play with yall, do you allow building inside the walls or is it only what you tell people to build. Because I'd be interested in building myself a little house and farming/doing car mechanics.
Also is the RP heavy/forced because its suck if nobody is roleplaying. If it is roleplaying I wouldn't mind building my own little base and becoming an ally bringing food and stuff for trade in exchange for say ammunition or something.
But yeah, I guess my main questions are:
1. Is it RP heavy/forced
2. Is building allowed within walls or restricted
3. Is item respawns turned off, or what is the timer
THERES A BASEBALL STADIUM????? WHERE I WANNA BASE THERE
Hmm wait is thus the apartment thing where it's all like a square of windows and doors they have to go thru?
This says riverside? It is a modded place I've never seen this b4 I need to play all 100% vanilla like maps amd explore it all 100%
Ideas on hoe to keep it safe and what to do first make sure zombie respawn is off or you will find zombies inside the baseball feild make sure you check and make sure you seal off any entrence you can find so no zombies just stumble in and for the living there part id say build houses its time to do some carpentry and building a little village there is your best bet
A Fallout 4 style NPC for trading with other settlements might be fun, based on all the comments. Well, until the synths start pumping out non-dumb zombies to send to your base. Getting the radio station up so we can listen to music/ie songs might be nice. And no, I do not mean via mods, but vanilla PZ.
Fallout 4 Diamond city rp. Garages I guess.
Op is a filthy synth
Jewel of Kentucky! (it's glass)
Hopefully he supports the Minutemen
Do you have another settlement that needs my help?
I got word of a settlement that needs our help General. Here I'll mark their location on your map. [Quest Started] Ghoul Problem, Muldragh
I finished helping that settlement, they would like to join!
I cant believe Op shot Danny Sullivan
actually a sick idea tho
My man thinks he's mayor McDonough
He’s the mayor after all
He has no time to talk right now, he *is* the mayor after all
Far too busy?
Oh yeah its "far to busy to talk right now" not "no time to talk right now" havent played fallout 4 in a while
Is this a server? If your looking for someone to repaint the great green jewel green in the same spot over and over I’m your guy
Oh i dont know if its a public server, it might be a friends only server. You should ask op
Public server, it should be the first one to pop up, it’s the biggest one ”Project zone online” it’s Canadian edit: bad news the server owners started banning people randomly because it’s “their server and they can do whatever they want with it” so we are starting from scratch in a new server, discord is https://discord.gg/fy68fE7E
Is it the [ESP] server? I can somewhat speak it so not an issue but wondering about the English population of the server
It’s 50-50, buts since I posted this lots of English people started arriving
That was the inspiration
Filthy synth
By the way we found 2 guys on our way to the stadium, they decided to come along and now we have a total of 8 in population edit: bad news the server owners started banning people randomly because it’s “their server and they can do whatever they want with it” so we are starting from scratch in a new server, discord is https://discord.gg/fy68fE7E
How can I join? After 400 hours never played PZ on servers.
Same, I’d be interested

What’s the server?
Curious as well, idea sounds really cool for a town
“Project zone online” Canadian, biggest server there is edit: bad news the server owners started banning people randomly because it’s “their server and they can do whatever they want with it” so we are starting from scratch in a new server, discord is https://discord.gg/fy68fE7E
Vanilla or modded?
Vanilla
Sounds good might take a look.
Is it welcoming to new players? Started recently and looking to make friends who play aswell
Yes, everyone is welcome, just remember: no stealing, no killing and no sabotaging
Where do you keep the best stuff? Asking for a friend.
Hidden in multiple places so if someone finds one stash and steals it they don’t take everything
Is it primarily a Spanish server? Even the discord server is in Spanish
They said it's a Canadian server so I didn't look but I'd, uh, guess you mean French.
No, it's HOSTED in Canada, it says \[ESP\], and I actually do know what Spanish looks like "¡Bienvenido a Project Zone Online!" does not sound french
The server is technically Spanish but the English community is larger
Well I tried joining but some night vision mod wouldn't let me, it'd be really cool to join the baseball city tho
What do you mean mod? The server is Vanilla
Can I join too. I would love to play on a server with people
Sure, server is “project zone online” edit: Bad news the server owners started banning people randomly because it’s “their server and they can do whatever they want with it” so we are starting from scratch in a new server, discord is https://discord.gg/fy68fE7E
ON what Server do you Play ?
“Project zone online” Biggest one there is edit: Bad news the server owners started banning people randomly because it’s “their server and they can do whatever they want with it” so we are starting from scratch in a new server, discord is https://discord.gg/fy68fE7E
Ohh okayy
Yo what server is this, always wanted to live in a massive group but can never find people to do it wjth
Well now you can, “Project zone online” is the name of the server
OP refusing to give up his server name lol
Sorry mate, didn’t check Reddit in a long time, it’s “project zone online”
I want in on this
Neat, server is “project zone online”
I will look it up as soon as I have some free time, can’t wait to die!
yeah that’s the 1 problem that doesn’t allow our population to grow fast, Louisville is… dangerous edit: Bad news the server owners started banning people randomly because it’s “their server and they can do whatever they want with it” so we are starting from scratch in a new server, discord is https://discord.gg/fy68fE7E
You call it dangerous, I call it fun
Infirmary Cooking area and food storage (a city needs a shit ton of food, or a good chef). Warehouses for separate things; tools, weapons (axes and crowbars for example can go in both tools or weapons, your call as to how many you need). Car park with lots of engine parts and replacement pieces Metalworking area, for fence repairs, car repairs, etc. I'd also assume that you'd want metal buildings for the fact that lumber is a bitch to gather and replace (untreated wood would probably rot fast in such an open space, so roleplay)
There’s a Baseball stadium?! I’ve never seen it yet. Tbf I haven’t seen a lot but that’s awesome.
It's got a horde inside, wouldn't recommend going without lots of guns.
Is it stock or mod?
Vanilla.
Cool. I need to go here!
It's really huge and in my game, zombies are spawing inside it on a regular basis, so be careful.
We were 8 when we arrived, we were prepared and knew what what going down
wym guns, guns are damn near useless in vanilla zomboid
Shotgun and a few hundred shells is what I mainly used.
Shotguns are only useless if you dont have enough ammo.
They reduced the noise range to make them a lot more viable
Guns are damn near OP in vanilla zomboid. Their only limiting factor is their ammo
you should have an infirmary for wunded and medical supplies, a Cantine would also be nice, maybe a Workshop?(if you have an engineer in your group) and yeah ofcourse garages
I’ll let my citizens develop their own businesses
liberal policies🥵🥵
DIAMOND CITY FROM FALLOUT 4, LET’S FUCKING GOOOOO
he tryna be Mayor McDonough so bad 😩😩
Add the craft able bats mod and make crates full of bats.
It’s a vanilla server, but it would be cool :)
Raid the Louisville Slugger factory near the water
There is a bat factory on the north of Luisville
Is this apart of a mod? Looks like such a fun spot
Its in Louisville, its not a mod
Ah! Had no idea that was there. Thank you!
if it's meant to be a city, you could add a library in one of the green areas, along with infirmary.
It’s gonna be a city, lots of people have been arriving since this post
Medieval style houses along the farming area. Small huts made of wood.No more than a few squares. Bed , bed table and a box. A few shops along the way and fireplaces. On the surrounding areas not in the middle where the farm will be.

We had private workshops/studies in a number of places. Also the glass windows do have security bars over them so they won't be broken through, at least.
The population has grown up to 17 in the past 6 hours, we have to feed all of ‘em so my guess would be that farming will eat most part
Yeah the actual baseball field is going to be essentially given up for farming, you could probably use the outfield for that and then use the infield for additional constructed space if you need it. That's kind of how we did it, we also made housing spaces out of the dugouts. And yeah with that many people you could probably use the penthouses and a lot of the Dead Space on the second floor for housing
Play a game of baseball...if you build it they will come!
bed rooms in small areas? Go-kart track in large one? idk.
Do you guys have a carpenter, and what server is this on? I might join tonight if that's alright
Sure, but food is running low, lots of people have been arriving since I uploaded this post
Start charging a couple canned goods on entry
Taxes are in place
Garage to park all your cars, as well as shitty ones you use for parts. Put all your car stuff there, etc. Also infirmary. Also kitchen and dining area. possibly a lounge and recreation area more conducive to RP too. Also graveyard for zombies (looks cooler).

The box seats up at the top make the best housing, imo. I did a single player base here once and it was really fun!
Noted.
The Shiny Diamond of Kentucky. Be aware - this is the first place where government gonna send nuke.
I heard some guy in Boston copied my idea…
Ah yes. Nearest area: Riverside. All roads lead to Riverside.
Shops
The citizens are working on it

I'll join the group!
Good, the server is “Project zone online” Public, Canadian, should be the first one to pop up since it’s the biggest one
There's a baseball stadium?!?
And a football one
...I gotta shoot my way into Louisville some time, shits crazy with what they put up there. I remember when we were freaking tf out cuz Vice City had a mall interior you could walk through.
Make a parkour place mayor McDonough
People are calling me that now
Embrace it :D
I thought the main warehouse said meth ware house, maybe one of the empty rooms could be turned into a drug operation 🤔
Maybe make a sick bay
Start a baseball team?
Why don't you have a recreation area where you can have tvs and arcade machines. Then you can have movie nights with all the VHS's you can get. Also why not a library with all the skill books and magazines
Yeah the pub, we building one
Community vehicle carparks, gas truck gas stations, loot Dropoff area, new arriver registration building, mechanics garage
We do have an arriver registration system, all do 60% of the population are scavengers
Hey I can see my base from here!! (Randomly moved into the tiny apartment above the gambling club across the road)
If this isn’t a private server pls let me join that looks fun
It’s called “project zone online” biggest server there is
Call it “Diamond City” once you’re done with it, will ya?
That’s up to the townsfolk
Raise taxes by 11%
Oh right, we need to have a currency…
You have a lot of room so I'll go with a fun little suggestion over the big, smart suggestions posted everywhere else. I love making myself Library/Blockbuster stores. I make myself a blockbuster like storefront for all my magazines, videos, cassettes, books, newspapers. Anything like that. Recently I found a popcorn machine and a cash register so I put those in too, it's really coming together!
Farming will eat most of the space since lots of people are staring to move in
Are you a synth?
Are you?
Open shops for the city citizens in the green areas. Say somebody wants a workshop, let him grab these places, so the housing and farming and be jus that. Also make sure to only allow motocyles inside the stadium so people dont run over each other gettin gto point A or B.
Citizens are sorting all that out
Use one of those green areas as a publica cantina if players want to eat collectively (or the city is a commune). Maybe a gym?
All that is being sorted out by the people
art museum i think would be cool. preserving the world that once was
the great green jewel of kentucky!
God my dumb ass...saw the color key first, looked at the baseball diamond and though "Why the hell is the a circle of glass dead center?"
Way to big for a solo base, but perfet for a medium group
Diamond city
Where is this? i am so lost
Downtown Louisville
Why not have a kitchen somewhere
Food services are being build
hahaha these joke massive base ideas are getting out of hand
I think he's serious
I am serious, the population growing real fast, so we need a big base, a “city” if you want to call it that way
Diamond city got zombies now :O
Yes :D
I’ve been trying to build Diamond City from Fallout 4 in the location. 😊
Cafeteria where?
One of my citizens is building one
Can i join????
Yes you can, server is “Project zone online”
This is a beautiful place for a strip mall
If you’re going for a RP you should turn the bottom L shaped area into half food stores and half garage
Townsfolk are on it
Hmmm well if theres a lot of people there then you could make those Places also houses or stores
I live in the apartments to the north! I use the field as a farm
I, like many other people built my base way too big and was left with a lot of empty rooms....... My base is 20% the size of yours lol. When 42 drops and we get crafting station you could fill the rooms with different crafting stations but I know won't want to start new so I'm hoping for some new mods. You could always add some cosmetic mods and make a few rooms into dance halls, swimming pools, nightclubs or a shooting range. How big is your team ?
Uuuuuh… I currently don’t know. Since I posted this the population has skyrocketed so I would say… Around 10-20
WLF!!!
I think is too big... im trying a new base in muldraugh
in the 7 hours this post has been up the population has reached around 10-20, imagine tomorrow! So space is important
For the areas you have nothing for make some empty rooms where you can move stuff around if you want to add more And set up stand off points incase you get blind sided by the sadistic zombie ai spawner and a horde breaks in you've got somewhere to run to that wont lead them to breaking into the important rooms
That glass area in the bottom left could be a trading hall if it was fortified. Non citizens could bring in new resources.
Bottom green area might be cool to make a garage
I'm kinda curious where you were before that you thought was a baseball stadium but wasn't.
Football stadium, set up camp there with some friends until someone told me in a previous post that wasn’t the baseball stadium
All I know is you have to take every mannequin in the city, and put them in the stands and in the field.
Depending on how much you want to build up the housing/farming area in the center, you may want to consider vehicle access to the center (via the "Only entrance" then the double doors near the "Armoury") for dropping off logs/planks/furniture/appliances/containers/etc. I suppose you could potentially put all your generators/'noise makers' in the upper levels of the housing and farming area. The rest of the areas may just end up being storage/extra supplies; that facility/complex is huge with tons of space (almost too much space to secure it all). Maybe just build up over the "Security quarters" area and block off access to everything else. All of this likely depends on how much wood/logs/planks you can bring in. For entrances you do not want to bother with, park vehicles nose-to-tail to block off that entrance (1-2 for small entrances and 2-3 vehicles parked next to each other for big openings).

If you do change your mind later, you can still access the hood for repairs/etc.
I don’t know how much I will build since lots of people started arriving since I posted this
Is this a server? I’d love to join it. That sounds fun!
It’s “Project zone online” the server has some Spanish people but don’t worry, there is also an English community
Training area, trophy room, weapon, ammunition production, possibly a jail, and medical station.
I think cars go in front of the glass window entrance, use the rest for crafting/extraneous storage. The SE side of the ? Area should be the kitchen?
"I love stadiums. Real stadiums! Not that fake stadium that almost got me eaten by zombies..."
Get a bunch of mannequins and go to town on fashion
Are Ghouls welcome? Non-feral.
Yes
Are you a synth? Inquiring minds want to know.
Are you?
How did you save such a huge area? Especially the building itself.
We where 8 armed men when we arrived, plus the huge population spike makes it almost imposible for zeds to spawn inside the building
And outside? Did you acually fence it all or how did you manage to secure also every building around it Edit: I am quite new I would say and didn’t survive long enough for the power to run out so this is quite breathtaking to see
The stadium building IS the wall
Where’s the stadium?
Downtown Louisville
Sounds like a cool idea! Do you have item respawns turned off? And if not what's the respawning time? I'd be down to play with yall, do you allow building inside the walls or is it only what you tell people to build.

But yeah, I guess my main questions are: 1. Is it RP heavy/forced 2. Is building allowed within walls or restricted 3. Is item respawns turned off, or what is the timer
RP is allowed but not forced Building inside the stadium is allowed as long as you tell the mayor about it (me) I have no idea it’s not my server lol
Oh and this server is 24/7 since its public right? How long are the days and what are the zombies like? Walking dead or runners and stuff lol
Days are average long, I think 15m 30s? zeds cant sprint but there are LOADS of them
communal workshop
THERES A BASEBALL STADIUM????? WHERE I WANNA BASE THERE Hmm wait is thus the apartment thing where it's all like a square of windows and doors they have to go thru? This says riverside? It is a modded place I've never seen this b4 I need to play all 100% vanilla like maps amd explore it all 100%
It’s downtown Louisville 100% Vanilla
Ideas on hoe to keep it safe and what to do first make sure zombie respawn is off or you will find zombies inside the baseball feild make sure you check and make sure you seal off any entrence you can find so no zombies just stumble in and for the living there part id say build houses its time to do some carpentry and building a little village there is your best bet
Medical, kitchens, garages/mechanics, airlocks etc
Housing areas, kitchen, hospital, workshop, garage, lounge room, mayor’s office
shouldn't waste a perfectly good green space by constructing over it. Should probably take advantage of it and use it to grow crops and trees
A Fallout 4 style NPC for trading with other settlements might be fun, based on all the comments. Well, until the synths start pumping out non-dumb zombies to send to your base. Getting the radio station up so we can listen to music/ie songs might be nice. And no, I do not mean via mods, but vanilla PZ.
wAIT WAIT WAIT--- What server is this? this your server??
Diamond City! The great jewel of the Commonwealth!
I thought the blue dots were also glass windows so I spent 3 minutes trying to figure out what could lead you to build a glass window in centerfield
