Ns_flood layout

<div class="IPBDescription">Shizibby</div>It's nowhere near completion, and I've only about 1/10 in WorldCraft. Feel free to ignore the areas in red and my crappy hand writing <!--emo&:)--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'><!--endemo-->

1 - marine spawn
2 - command center / sewer access
3 - boiler room
4 - furnace room
5 - generator room
6 - underground sewers
7 - east hive

The west wing is the maintenence area.
The east wing is the sewer system.
The north wing -will- be the habitation area, but I've yet to come up with any ideas for it :\
Please keep in mind that the sewer system is merely an outline and the maintenence area is only half done.
You may be asking yourself, "Why would he post anything at such an early stage?" Because the guys in #ns told me to <!--emo&:p--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':p'><!--endemo-->
PS: It looks much (much) better on paper.

since you say it is nowhere near completed, my only comments at this point will only #### you off and have you yelling "IT'S NOT DONE YET, FOO!"

Anyway, remember to read the mapping guidelines, ALL of them.

Oh, heh, I guess I didn't read all of them. Got bored when it started talking about particle systems. I mean, there's no plot! (That was sarcasm, btw, for those less intelligent people)
That bites <!--emo&:(--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/sad.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':('><!--endemo--> I worked hard on that motha.

I dunno though, it looks nicely planned. Some test screenshots would be good

Looks pretty crowded and it looks like it doesn't have too many entrances, but since its not done, i can see why, other then that, narby is right, its got nothig wrong with it but those, i like it. <!--emo&:D--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':D'><!--endemo-->

I would strongly recommend having a resource node in the commander room and making sure there is enough room to build several large structures in there.

Have you tried my Quickstart Guide? (it's linked from the forum FAQ), it's designed to be more concise than the offical guidelines.

I think it does.

1) Only 1 hive
2) Only one way to get to that hive
3) *maybe elevation change means this* no use of jetpacks


Thats what I can think of, just being helpful <!--emo&:)--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'><!--endemo-->

Hey Shoven! Looks like you're getting a good start on this! Keep up the good work!

Black_Wolf

hmm, since its not finished i wont comment on the lack of mostly everything . . .

shoven

Well, I must commend those of you who are open-minded about it...
/me cries in the corner
I'm starting work on a full layout in Photoshop. I know it's not "complete enough". I told you, I was forced <!--emo&:p--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':p'><!--endemo-->
