Very nice. It looks pretty cool, and seems like it’d look even cooler in a moonbase module, especially clustered together.

Why limit connections to just the 4 horizontal directions? I see a 3 dimensional array of spheres as potentially very cool. Heck, if you started doing non-orthoganal connections, simple molecules could be modeled on the moonbase with these things!

Also, why does your standard allow the connection to be a plate below the standard connection? Why not just require a standard connection?
