The Tale of the Three Tribes

(This is an additional story about the Structure Skin mod concept)

The story begins in an age long forgotten...

Upon arriving at the ARK, three Survivors utilized their Ultra-Civilization technology to establish a foothold. However, as they expanded their factions alongside other survivors, their paths began to diverge._

The Prophet of Greed

_One of the first Prophets, consumed by avarice, abandoned the grace of advanced technology. They retreated to the desert, achieving explosive growth through the ruthless pillaging and destruction of resources. People came to call this place:

The City of Primal Fury: Where Civilization was Abandoned...

The Prophet of Wisdom

Seeking to preserve their ancestral technology at all costs, another wise Prophet established a base upon the highest, most desolate hills. There, they nurtured sprouts from the dust, preserving and researching the genetic codes of diverse creatures. In that barren land, they built a future rooted in hope. People named this facility:

The Seed of Hope: Civilization’s Tomorrow...

The Prophet of Adaptation

The final Prophet was neither greedy nor exceptionally wise; they simply cherished companionship and the warmth of a family home. They founded a modest village along the coastal cliffs and mountain ridges. This settlement became known as

The Harmony of Survival: Civilization’s Compromise and Adaptation...

As time passed, these factions fractured once more, leading to the creation of the Brass City beneath the waves, the Iron Bulwark within the frozen peaks, and the Luminous Future Base in the deep trenches of the abyss.

Which tribe will you call home? Your destiny lies in your hands...

[3. Variant Cycle Tool: Structure Custom Cosmetics) (Mod ID : 1112161)

to keep the item count as low as possible while offering the widest variety of structure skins, I will continue to utilize the 'Variant' system extensively.
Because of this, I highly recommend using Sandi_00's Variant Cycle Tool. It allows you to swap variants from a distance without having to approach each structure
individually—it has been a lifesaver for my large-scale builds (Huge thanks to Sandi!)

The two recommended mods above are not cosmetics, so please follow these steps to activate them
