Even if you're just ad-hocing it it's not bad at all.

Why do you have to go all the way around that wall in maintenance?

Only change would be the nuke ops breaking right through the maintenance shaft and then into the armory.

Those bedrooms remind of dwarf fortress.

Do what bay does and instead of personal detective closets, use wall safes in the bedrooms.

hear that?
it's the sound of an update
i started all over just yesterday

working on a layout alongside this

gunstation 13

allura · Post by **allura** » Tue Jul 01, 2014 4:09 pm #16813

thats not the full layout, i havent finished it. the full station is going to be the shape meta and box are, vaguely ovular

Post by **NikNakFlak** » Wed Jul 02, 2014 5:48 am #16978

Alot of that looks extremely similar to metastation. Experiment with changing the shape of things. Such as the bar looks exactly the same as sybils but in a different spot and the bridge you made is almost an exact duplicate of sybils as well except with the gravity generator moved somewhere else.

you should put on some glasses niknak

allura · Post by **allura** » Wed Jul 02, 2014 12:50 pm #17042

nik, for initial development of the map i am going to be heavily using designs from both box and meta, and once the map is "finished" in the sense that it's playable, i will let anyone and everyone suggest things for me to change until common agreements come through certain areas. i'm mostly doing this because even maps that i love (efficiency 2 and 3) are hated by some players just for being different from classic meta/box. until i am mostly finished, this will be pretty much a frankenstein-ing of box and meta's best parts imo and maybe they will blend in more naturally to each other as i take user-suggested changes.

for the sake of change, both security and cargo are, instead of meta/box, eff3/box inspired.

updated bar based on something miggles said

Post by **NikNakFlak** » Wed Jul 02, 2014 11:39 pm #17153

Ew, who the hell serves drinks on carpets. Don't change something completely based on one person's opinion. Do it how you want it to be.

miggles · Post by **miggles** » Wed Jul 02, 2014 11:42 pm #17155

except they chose to do it based on what i said in an entirely different thread
not to mention thats a smoking room, the bar is below that

The conveyor belts need shutters because there's space on the other side.

>dat medisci
>dat service and dorms next to each other

the nay sayers will be proven wrong by allura the god-king of mapping returning to make the best map for the server just you wait

I have a suggestion though. Maybe put dorms up above the holodeck and the holodeck right off the hallway? people will use it more and it's easier to get to. Dorms should be tucked up in the back by the dorms pod for escaping and shit because privacy. Holodeck should be a short stroll from the locker room.

Keep up the good work, senpai is proud.

allura · Post by **allura** » Sat Jul 05, 2014 12:02 am #17692

its done
and also it has a name now

paprika · Post by **paprika** » Sat Jul 05, 2014 2:38 am #17718

Go look at metastation on the NT branch and boxstation. The engine needs safety lattices that allow you to jump from one side of it to the other without getting sucked into the field. Even if they're only minor and not that long that's fine but yeah too many brave nuke ops have lost their loves to the singulo.

Also, no wood flooring there, use the checkered flooring for the restaurant and the wood for the stage.

Also shit name, call it gripstation because it goes it goes it goes

allura · Post by **allura** » Sat Jul 05, 2014 4:24 am #17734

im adding lattices later
i prefer the bay bar and think that the bar looks better, so do some other people off nanobus (so its just a matter of popular opinion)
and no but topfunny

paprika · Post by **paprika** » Sat Jul 05, 2014 4:36 am #17738

It's just too samey. Gotta mix things up, imo.

Would it be problematic for you to not use puush? Thank you. It'd be cool for you to use any image hosting thing that is not puush, because for some reason I can't see puush images. I'd like to see your progress thanks

allura · Post by **allura** » Sun Jul 13, 2014 1:10 am #19272

>1 r wall into ai core

simply epic map design

Steelpoint · Post by **Steelpoint** » Sun Jul 20, 2014 2:37 am #20383

Take a hint from my AI Core's design.

The AI Core proper should at least be 2 R-Walls strong on all corners. Also be sure to test the firing ranges of the turrets so they don't accidentaly hit the AI, there's a problem on Box where if someone is standing in a certain area the Turrets will hit the AI instead, which can be surprising if you left the turrets on lethal setting.
