This is a great idea.  But let's make a clear definition of what a
32x32 module should be.  Some people may not have the resources to
build 9 of them.  So how about this:

If you build a 32x32 module, it should be designed to line up with
48x48 modules in one corner.  In other words the porthole should still
be between studs 20-28, counting from the corner.  This way a 32x32
module can be placed in the "L" formed by several 48x48 modules, or
several 32x32 modules can be arranged into a 9x9 pattern.

For maximum flexibility build 2 portals along each edge of a 32x32
module!  The ones not in use can be capped.

(...) Let's try not to muddy the waters too soon. The standard of 48x48 was set because 1) the big ol' baseplate is still generally available 2) it allows lots of building space 3) it's grey, and 4)it's easier to begin figuring out how all this will (...) (22 years ago, 2-Aug-02, to lugnet.space)
