I thought of an idea on a couple of lunar base concepts, on the Mun, based off real ideas that hopefully, can be replicated in KSP. May have to involve a couple of mods.
1. Starship Lunar Base
A Starship lunar base is a Starship turned Permanent Base. The Construction of the Lunar base involves tilting the Starship and emptying the compartments of the fuel tanks. It is then applied with basical needs for a permanent Lunar abode. I have a couple of ideas of my own. If possible, you could turn the starship unside down, and tilt the fuel panels from near the engine to the tip to look like a cone. apply some centrifugal rotation, and yourself have a small, centrifugal base. If you're still confused with the concept, check Idea 2.
2. Japanese Lunar City
The Japanese Lunar City is a centrifugal, tall city that rotated to simulate gravity on the low gravity of the lunar surface. Water, plantlife and housing is carried on the rotating base, with a train system to transport crew onto the base.
3. Centrifugal Crater Base
I created this idea. The base is layed on a crater, varying to size. The base rotated enough to simulate earth gravity. A solar panel is placed on top on the base, supplying energy to the base.
4. ESA Inflatable Lunar base
The ESA inflatable lunar base is well, inflatable. Constructed with gigantic lenses to act as sunlight for greenhouses. It can be applied to work in small craters.
5. Crater Lunar radio Telescope
These bases will act as gigantic radio telescopes to help study, transmit and act as just cool dishes wired above the craters. It may supply bases on the dish itself, but it may cause mass problems. It can act way better than Earth telescopes, because there is no atmosphere to interfere.
This is all for now, I might find more if I can. Hopefully this will work, and give you a few ideas for starting up a lunar base. I'd love to see how you make it too in the game.
This is my first post too, so hopefully this will gain some attraction.
