In celebration of the v254 patch, I decided to build my very own Jousting Arena in the style of a Colosseum. This build took 6 days to complete, and was completed without the aid of spawning in any items or resources (I never want to grind that much stone ever again ).
The Colosseum features a royal box for VIP guests to spectate the events. The arena also doubles as a PVP battle arena when jousting events aren't taking place, and the balconies at either end of the arena provide an area for the two battling players to stand while whistling their dinos to attack. Three tiers of seating is provided for anyone who wishes to watch the events.
You can watch a speed build of the Colosseum in my ARK: Survival Evolved YouTube series (S02E43):
The following mods are used in the build:
Structures+
For all of the structural pieces. In particular the triangular ceiling pieces enabled me to create the hexagonal shape
Gate Mod
For the gate entrance, using the small behemoth gate.
Advanced Architecture
For a small number of decorative pieces in the royal box.
Stargate Atlantis
Provides a Stargate at the end of the bridge for players to walk dinos through into the arena.
Auto Torch
Provides timer torches which automatically turn on at night and require no fuel.
