Do you see many different people changing the same thing on a station in the same way? Often times this is due to the player base having a general consensus over what is more convenient. Perhaps you could integrate that into the map?
The map is designed to have certain flaws so I'd avoid this as it'll gradually make things harder to sabotage.

decals is the big takeaway here, we need way more to make each map have an identity and be way prettier

not to be rude, but no, no, no, no, no

please

do not do this

the removal of player creativity by taking gimmicks people occasionally do and turning them into features is extremely obnoxious and leads to people doing those things LESS often (and also what sticky said)

this is one of my major issues with the way map design on /tg/station is treated and there needs to be less of this practice, not more

I would make more decals in good conscience if, ya know

all the file paths in markings.dm weren't written in dyslexic order.

Count how many different file naming schemes and orders there are in that file.
Then check out the other one.

stickymayhem is right about not correcting intentional weak points in the map (as the years went by it's become less and less of a nonsensical metal death trap) but i don't see how having to move the xenobio smartfridge and slime processor to the consoles on every map but pubby each round contributes to player creativity
