Again dude, thank you so much for making these showcase videos, it really helps us out on deciding which Hab to install on our ship and what parts would be getting nuked by portholes or doorways. I just need to make my self a tier list of sorts just to decide which manufacture has the best Hab for each category. Maybe that's something you can also do at the end of this series is rate which manufacture you like the best for each particular Hab. Like how Nova Galactic had the best Infirmary for lighting and usage. Looking forward to more and I'm glad to see you growing from this!

I've found a use for the Deimos 2×1 Living Quarters. I've put it behind a Deimos bridge, with ladder access to the living quarters, and portholes all around. It leaves me with a 360° observation deck (when you include the bridge). The table, chairs, storage and galley are retained, which makes for a nice crew room.

That's fair, it could indeed be that the lowered lighting scheme is by design in that regard.

The Deimos 2x1 Living Quarters actually pairs really well with the Deimos/Stroud 2x1 All-in-One, as it does give an actual (aesthetic only, of course) living space, since there's only minimal seating etc in the 2x1 Deimos/Stroud All-in-One habs...

Fair point.

Here is why I don’t like the infirmary: who is going to work on you? None of the people you can hire are specifically medics or doctors (since there isn’t really a medic skill, just one for med-kits which are self applied) so the role play aspect is out and of course it has no medical function so mechanically it is out. The science lab+workstation combo just makes mores sense from an explorer standpoint, medicine has been streamlined into injections and inhalers for the most part so you don’t need a dedicated infirmary on anything other than a really big ship you are roleplaying as a mini-colony or mini-cruise ship.

Stations are more likely to change position than vanish with doorways. Certainly happens with workshops.

I feel that a good summary of both the ship and base building systems is "missed opportunities" but hey a bird in the hand is better than 2 in the bush when it comes to the closest contemporary: Star Citizen

Hello! I'm sorry in advance about the rant I'll go on in this comment. I do not own the game, however I was curious of gameplay and designs in game. So I've watched bunch of videos. And I'm DISGUSTED. The way they designed ship interiors is absolute shitshow. As an architect, I was really pissed of seeing living quarters without beds or heads! If this is a roleplay game, it should feel like I'm in a spaceship: the way it looks and it functions. Why no one in team or company decided to hire an architect or an interior designer? Even if they don't do the design, they could tutor the designers and comment on their design while the assets were being created. Also most of those living quarters and infirmaries could've been reduced to almost half of it's volume becacause they have wasted so much precious S P A C E. If you wonder what I'm talking about, I recommend checking some boat and yatch designs and see how every cubic inch of space is being utilized and not wasted.
