  Moonbase Corridor 2.0 ?
 
I was playing around with moonbase ideas, but the current standard corridors only allow one MF to walk through at a time and aren't big enough for trams or monorails : ( I took a stab at a new revision of a moonbase corridor. The 4 red (...) (21 years ago, 20-Mar-03, to lugnet.space)
 
  Re: Moonbase Corridor 2.0 ?
 
This might be good for corridors where equipment runs through, but I think it takes up a lot of real estate for minifig use. Generally, major transportation devices such as trains and their like would run on the outside of a module where the number (...) (21 years ago, 20-Mar-03, to lugnet.space)

(...) While I agree that right now, most people don't use this corridor idea in their standard, I think it's imoprtant to tell others about it and allow them the opportunity to expand the standard if they wish in their own worlds. If enough adopt (...) (21 years ago, 22-Mar-03, to lugnet.space)

  Re: Moonbase Corridor 2.0 ?
 
Markham, I remember this, and still think it a useful idea. I think the concensus at the time was to let the moonbase idea gel a little before modifying the original concept, then maybe later consider modifications. It's later. I think it's a worthy (...)

  Re: Moonbase Corridor 2.0 ?
 
(...) But what do we do with the dozens of moonbase modules that are already built? I'd say that if we want to do a wide corridor standard, we should have it set back 2 bricks from the edge, so that if we need a coupler from new to old, it can be (...) (21 years ago, 23-Mar-03, to lugnet.space)

Thanks for the feedback. I'm working on adapters now : ) (21 years ago, 24-Mar-03, to lugnet.space)
 
  Re: Moonbase Corridor 2.0 ?
 
I forgot to mention that I would expect any new corridor designs must co-exist with previous revisions. IE any moonbase must either incorporate a 1.0 corridor or have adapters to accomodate them. I definitely want to be able to connect to all the (...) (21 years ago, 24-Mar-03, to lugnet.space)
