Base Location Planner
Rate one candidate site from 1–5 across access, space, safety, pressure and travel. Choose a priority, then compare the strengths and risks produced entirely from your own observations.

Change any control and the result updates immediately.
TRADE-OFFS
Observed strengths
- No standout strength at 4–5 yet
Observed risks
- No major risk at the current ratings
This suitability score compares your observations and selected priority; it does not claim hidden map values.

How this tool decides
- Validate every observation on a 1–5 scale.
- Invert zombie and radiation pressure because lower observed pressure improves suitability.
- Apply the selected Balanced, Loot First, Safety First or Travel First weighting, then normalize the result to 100.
- List every rating of 4–5 as a strength and every 1–2 rating—or 4–5 pressure—as a risk.
What it does not assume
- No base coordinate, resource spawn or map cell is scored automatically.
- The result does not know future patches, raids, route changes or your server conditions.
- A high score is a comparison aid, not proof that a location is universally best.
Frequently asked questions
Does the planner know the best base coordinates?
No. It scores only the observations you enter and publishes no invented coordinates or hidden map values.
Why are pressure ratings inverted?
Because a higher user-observed zombie or radiation pressure makes the same candidate less suitable, while higher access, space and safety ratings improve it.
