A Layout Challenge ...

Thaldarin

<div class="IPBDescription">Help me with your input</div> I'm in a bit of a pickle with the layout for ns_guard, and i'm fearing loss of the whole project because of it. I was wondering if I could have suggestions and even extention areas on the layout that I;ve provided from hammer below.

Note: Far right is a hive. Only one so far. The area in mid air is the beginning of ready room (near bottom of diagram)

0o" woah!

Xcuse me for the mspaint job, but i think this is kind of the one logical way of proceeding with the layout. Maybe it will help you out <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' /><!--endemo-->

- the red lines are corridors
- that middle room (beneath the top hive) could work as a double res

hope I inspired you to new ideas. Happy mapping <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->

I agree with the above post, plus some linking tunnels or vents between bottom left and far right hive.

I've always found the easiest way to lay ns maps out is create the 4 start points and then find ways to link them...my ideas are in the pic below
