Guest FlareVi Posted December 25, 2016 Posted December 25, 2016 Heyo. I've been mapping out ideas and all for maintenance, trying to give it a little more diversity and cool little areas for people to murder hang out in. One of the problems I see is that Assistants/Civvies and Traders don't really get to do much in a round, when it's choc-a-block full of people, so I wanted to map out a few areas where they could set up shops, man posistions, roleplay, murder, et cetera. I've worked in the somewhat slightlly contained space we have in maintenance, and came up with a few locations. Traders: Abandoned Shop Screenshot: Location: Old Bar. Purpose: Can be manned/used by Traders should they want to avoid collecting a large amount of materials to make their own shop in maintenance. Items: Contraband Spawners X3 (Probably gonna reduce that.), Random Tools. Description: An old run-down shop that is seemingly abandoned. Tide-N-Dine Screenshot: Purpose: Trading Shop/Diner in maintenance. Gives engineers/traders/civvies something to fix up when they are bored. Location: Next to Incinerator/Lower Cargo Maint. Items: Medical Wardrobe, Chef's Closet, 3 Vending Machines and a Microwave + Blender. Description: Looks like a run-down chain-diner. Civilians/Clowns/Mime: Abandoned Noir Office Screenshot Purpose: A place to play Detective, just without all the nifty computer-stuff. Clowntective/Mimetective/Assistantectives unite. Location: East Sci-Maint - False Wall entrance. Items: Noir Glasses, Detective Hat and Trenchcoat, Paper, Whiskey, Smokes and a Black Zippo, Assorted Junk, Camera and a Capgun. Description: There he was, sitting infront of me. His mask said it all, his face was featureless, silent and watching. I knew this guy and he knew me, the sorta guy you'd send to make all your troubles go away. Yet, here he was in my office, acting out his requests for help. It was almost ironic, the mute man knew just what he wanted, all I wanted was my banana split. Maintenance never brings in the good people, but at the end of the day, who is a good man? Artist's Block. Screenshot: Purpose: The dodgiest place in maintenance to start your art career. Location: South Sci-Maint. Items: Easels, Canvases, Art Vendor. Description: Beat the devil outta it. Exploring/Adventure Abandoned Botanical Area Screenshot: Purpose: Unique Area/Overgrown Maintenance, Also good for growing plants drugs Location: Next to Old Bar. Items: Botanical Crate, Coin, Broken Glass and a Pod Book. Description: An overgrown botanical area, full of plant life. Random/Assorted: Abandoned Bar Bathrooms Screenshot: Purpose: To go to the toilet order your traitor gear/absorb that guy. I always found it weird how there isn't a toilet next to a bar. Location: Old Bar. Items: None. Description: It's a rundown bathroom. Destroyed Area. Screenshot: Purpose: Loot. Location: Under Xenobio. Items: Contraband and random junk. Description: N/A. Anyway, just a few ideas and all that jazz. I'd like to here some opinions, criticism, whether people would even want this and all that. At the end of the day, I'm just trying to make Maint a lil bit more interesting and givin' people more things to do than getting pissed in the bar.

saywat_the_15th Posted December 26, 2016 Posted December 26, 2016 Always up for new maint places, more places to hide bodies, more places to renovate. The bathroom looks a bit off with the silver doors. Also that detective room, give me now.

Dumbdumn5 Posted December 26, 2016 Posted December 26, 2016 All of these, fuck yeah! Maint Carps Rule! Link to comment https://www.paradisestation.org/forum/topic/9028-expanding-maintenance/#findComment-76842 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pseudo_Unicorn Posted December 26, 2016 Posted December 26, 2016 +1 I am ALL for a bigger, more expansive maintenance with more to explore. The idea that like, due to cutbacks, the Cyberiad has slowly had to close down large chunks of the station is really cool.

dadols Posted December 26, 2016 Posted December 26, 2016 +1 Great Idea/Concept. But all the stuff you've made looks very strange & confused... the placement and the general design of the areas you've made...

Dinarzad Posted December 26, 2016 Posted December 26, 2016 pls. 'm pretty good with all these, I think they just need a tiny bit of tweaks. Mostly being, not silver doors. Stands out awkwardly and I could see science nerds running around deconstructing them all for free silver at round start. Normal airlocks, glass airlocks or wooden doors would be preferable. But in either case +1 Link to comment https://www.paradisestation.org/forum/topic/9028-expanding-maintenance/#findComment-76848 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest FlareVi Posted December 26, 2016 Posted December 26, 2016 Wooden doors have silver sprites for some reason. They are actually made of wood.

Guest FlareVi Posted December 26, 2016 Posted December 26, 2016 Update Two: Noir Office: -Updated it to make a look a lot more shitty/rundown with decals, broken tiles, et cetera.- Added to the Maintenance Area so an APC should now work with it to power doors/computers/death. - Added various construction elements, such as the APC and APC Circuit Board. - "Detective" Dorm Body Room - Added additional items and a closet. - Corgi Plushie and a Mouse added. - Decals added, such as blood. Which is white for some reason. Abandoned Botanical Area 2: Location: East Sci-Maint Purpose: To grow plants and harbour life, overgrown area to the maintenance. Items: Rock, Botanical Crate, Bucket, Poster, Botanical Gloves, Coins. Description: An abandoned one-was botanical research area on the Cyberaid, now overgrown. Artist's Block: - Added pretty paintings. Link to comment https://www.paradisestation.org/forum/topic/9028-expanding-maintenance/#findComment-76869 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holyass Posted December 26, 2016 Posted December 26, 2016 +1 I really like the idea. You think you can make an abandoned engine room with stuff to make a slow way of power?

GelatinousGlob Posted December 28, 2016 Posted December 28, 2016 This looks awesome, im all for it. It would be really cool if these could randomize on shift start of existing or not.
