Mesa Basa is [[Astrobolt]]'s current base. It is also the main base of operations for [[AstroTech R&D]].
Mesa Basa is [[Astrobolt]]'s main base. It is also the main base of operations for [[AstroTech R&D]].
 
Regarded for its highly secretive nature, Mesa Basa stands in the [[Southern Mesa]] as both a marvel and a mystery. Despite the deep secrets held inside, Mesa Basa is a base of elegance, compromising neither form nor function in an attempt to create a perfect example of technological dominance.

After a while, [[Astrobolt]] decided to decorate. He built a house on the surface that mixed well with the hard-to-build-with mesa biome. Six beacon spaces were also added. Eventually, a wall was completed around the perimeter of the surface.

After [[Astrobolt]]'s unban in 2022, they focused on restoring the base to its former glory and once again establishing it as a technological powerhouse. The walls were torn down and the iron was used for a new hopper-based, effectively double-throughput auto-sorter. Other large projects are still under development.


While Mesa Basa is for the most part complete, it is an ongoing project. Improvements are added when needed.

Mesa Basa is one of, if not the most secure base on the server. While its location makes it easy to reach, the security system, developed by [[AstroTech R&D]], is one of the most functional (and aesthetically pleasing) on the server. Since it is top secret, details about the security system are not available to the public.
Mesa Basa is regarded as one of the most secure and secretive bases in PirateCraft's history. While its location, being close to [[Warp South|/warp south]], makes it easy to reach, Mesa Basa's multi-layered, highly-complex security system makes it nearly impenetrable. The redstone systems, developed by [[AstroTech R&D]], make use of fully-custom circuits and interfaces in order to provide an unrivalled level of security while remaining aesthetically pleasing.
 
While there have been several attempts to raid Mesa Basa, all of them have failed. The security system has held up against glitchers and legitimate players alike, and even against the most advanced hacked clients.


While there have been several attempts to raid Mesa Basa in the past, all of them have failed. Perhaps the most famous instance is when a hacker with several alts (commonly known as "the king," or "the princess," estimated to have at least 50 alts) attempted to loot Mesa Basa and throw everything away. Fortunately, [[Astrobolt]] was able to put the base on lockdown and everything in the base was secure. Another instance is when Saltpigeon attempted to raid Mesa Basa. Just like the hacker, his attempt was thwarted by the state-of-the-art security system.
The state-of-the-art security system is under continual development and integrates new features whenever they are available.
