Over time, most of the monorail pylons had villagers around them most of the time.

People think of the inventor as a screwball, but no one ever asks the inventor what he thinks of other people.—Charles F. Kettering

After my first village contact, the others went more or less along the same lines. I devoted my construction systems' energies into sinking as many wells as I could, installing only the lower trunk of each pylon and just enough of a canopy and solar film to power the well pump and a wireless communications node. The goal was to save as many villagers' lives as possible; everything else was secondary.
