What you play on is up to you! 😨 After playing the game for a number of years the problems with the Almayer had become evident to me, namely alot of bloated hallways maintenance areas, as well annoyingly long travel times, department size inconsistancies, cryopod locations spread out everywhere, LIFEBOATS REEE, and more that is hard to pick off the top of my head. I tried addressing all of them in the design of this new shipmap, heres a rough list of the major changes that might be noticed in comparison to the Almayer: - Vertical orientation. Mostly done because I thought it would be interesting, but also allows for a third deck (The map size is the same as the Almayer's) - No lifeboats, they're gone! In their stead I revived the SD (located on the third deck, triggered using communications console in CIC) - All cryopods have been consolidated to a single location on the second deck (right by dorms), and as a result everyone will spawn together there primed to go and get some chow at the mess hall just fore of there. - All officer gear vendors have been moved to Officer Prep on the third deck (right by the aft stairs for easy access) - Evacuation pods have been segregated from the main hallways and shuttered off, and will only open when evac is called (can be opened from ARES room if need be). - Expanded dorms area on the second deck, with bunks for each department. Marines during a prolonged active duty time now have somewhere to rest! - Multi-zlevel cargo elevator. Completely new feature, travel between all the decks in style! This has been a long time coming, huge thanks to @nauticall and @carlarctg for contributing to the map! Check out those maints! I know its a huge PR with a multitude of changes (sorry). Much love reviewers <3 *Also figuring out hijack impact location code, forgot about this. # Explain why it's good for the game New map, new fun. # Changelog :cl: add: Added functionality for multizlevel elevators. fix: Fixed crushing cans not making noise, potted plants not selecting random sprites, and SD being out of date. soundadd: Sounds for falling down zlevels, splat! imageadd: Sprites for multizlevel elevator, transit walls, pit walls, freight door, and controller. Sprites for alternate landing zone lights directions. Sprites for the ship name, deck level signs. mapadd: Added a new shipmap: USS Western Eye! config: Added shuttles option to map configs, for map specific shuttle specification. admin: Admins can now call shipmap votes. /:cl:

Good map, though it will definitely need work overtime to buff out the rough edges.

Willing to help out with such work.

Really good map. Shows a lot of talent. Would be amazing for a Greenshift round.

It is a really good map only thing I would say before releasing it fully is put a map on the wiki for new players
