Hm... the main problem with assigning areas is (like already said) that you need to wait till the other guys finished their stuff. <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif' /><!--endemo-->
But would be... interesting <!--emo&:0--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/wow.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wow.gif' /><!--endemo-->
Oh and... one thing I'm already thinking about all the time:
As I said in my 1st post, the setting *should* be an old research facility and/or mining complex... Any other suggestions? Oh... and I need help on the location names :-/
Because the way into the facility should be the railway (that is broken now) the background story should be something like "research/mining team got trapped inside the facility while alien forces overtook parts of the complex".
Any other ideas so far...? <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /><!--endemo-->

maybe some kind of "outer space supermarket", where you can buy some odd things to surprise your neighbour. "hm, its green, its not a plant, its moving,... WTH!

Especially if you hapen to be using a computer to do it (kind of necessary really), since you have the great wide internet beckoning with entertainment, and Hammer sitting there mocking you by crashing when you haven't saved in a while.

This is a great concept. I'm gonna show it to my clan's main mapper (ToeL[TFC]) and see what he thinks. =) I might play around with it too just for some practice, anyway, ya it looks awesome.
Edit: My clan mate replied this: If I am the only one reply, it can be done and for further contact to see me here at the TFC forums. The airlock room maybe difficult to achieve due to vis so it maybe just baren or made into a different structure, but everything else is doable. Even the cave/canyons will be done with Nem's terrain Generator or Easy Generator. Been looking for Nem's terrain gen. again for sometime but fileplanet doesn't host it anymore
lol. Anyway I told him he wasn't the only reply but ya... www.forsakened.com is our forums if you want him to try it.
