[WIP] Space ship

I've been playing on /TG/Station since January and I've decided to make a map as a summer project.

Images of current progress (5 hours in):

I'm going to have to do a bit of coding, but I don't think that would be too much of a problem.

The idea is to force the ship to keep moving a few times per round and also to be forced to distribute power with consideration (until they upgrade their power supply they will either have to burn a lot of plasma or turn off unimportant stuff.) There will be some solar panels on the side of the ship (4 lines along port and starboard).

I have some rooms that I'm uncertain what to do with and welcome any input on changes to be made and positioning of the various departments.

If those one tile square rooms in atmospherics are supposed to be the gas holding tanks, I think they need to be bigger. They need to have at least 2 tiles, one for the vent to siphon gas out, and one for the gas injector (or whatever it's called) to pump gas in. I'm also not sure if there's enough room for all the pipes, but I'm no expert with piping.

Would you guys consider this a sane Atmos configuration?

That's probably the most compact atmos design I've seen for a map.

i have a suggestion for slight change to atmos setup:

Yeah I considered that, but part of the Atmos experience is improving things on your own.
Here's the new and improved Atmos:

Trust me I'm working on it, it's just hard to find natural places to put it.

Also I'm noticing none of the SMES in the picture have terminals.

Atmos being exposed to the hallway is a pretty solid meme my dude

So is there an engine in the works for this? Or just solars?

Extend the bridge out more, the front looks a bit boring and square.

Add some windows to the left side of the ship as well.

The ship currently draws power mainly from 4 Pacmen, I wanted the ship to be dependent on refilling the engine occasionally to make it more active than just turning on a Tesla and leaving. The plan is for the solars to be able to slowly fill up the SMES'es if you turn off some systems.

Good points.

I've made a little progress, but after seeing how much better the FTL13 is as of now, I've decided that contributing to that project would get a better result than trying to make it on my own.
