Unless you're prepared to fill in gaps with some scratch-built corridors, I'm no
sure how feasible this will be. The idea of designing the module layout around
the Monorail layout is interesting, but I suspect you'll find that you need to
be really flexible about where specific modules get placed. If you do end up
running with this idea, you might want to ask for pre-built modules to be placed
first and then try to get people to claim gaps for modules that they plan to
build.
