Wait. Put down that shovel. This is the deal: We will be adding some new features to the Moonbase Project standard soon. These include vertical corridors, higher horizontal corridors and a a permanent Monorail integration standard. All of these new (...)

Gah, how soon after the poll's closure do you plan to impliment this? How many already have modules for NWBC? Not that raising a module would be all that hard.. Mark snow Daddy Neumann (21 years ago, 28-Aug-03, to lugnet.space)

(...) By "vertical corridors" do you mean guidelines for multi-level modules? That is, for corridor connections at regular intervals above the "1st floor"? Live it up, -sb (21 years ago, 29-Aug-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)
