Atlas did<span class="bbc_u"><strong>NOT</strong></span>god-mode Abs into the garage. That was a misreading on my part.<br/><br/>I also apologise for the confusion this created with everyone else who already realised that and was wondering what I was going on about.<br/><br/>Ans I apologise for trying to illustrate group thread movement by referring to Atlas' non-existent god-mode. Using a non-existent situation as an illustration is never a good idea, so I'm not surprised people didn't get it!<br/><br/>I equally apologise for the confusion caused by referring to the D/S situation in my friend Haibane's games. That was, as mayovagn pointed out, purely anecdotal.<br/><br/>The point about group moves stands though - the illustration using the poker game is the best one - only one of the players needs to post that "they picked up the chips, the cards, the drinks and snacks and all moved to the common lounge in the<span class="bbc_u">main dome</span>." (simulated hyperlink) All the rest can simply post in the new thread.<br/><br/>*looks at cleared plate and burps*<br/><br/><hr/><br/>Atlas, all the rooms are the same size. (Says so clearly in the description somewhere). Even the three rooms in the Command centre block are the same. Rank hath it's privilege, but on Mars, a bigger room ain't one of them! Not yet, anyway. But all the rooms have a king-sized bed, easily big enough for three, or four if you want to risk the life-support.<br/><br/><hr/><br/>One more thing, that is certainly implied in the description of the base but may not be completely clear: The compressor pumps, heaters and oxygen/Nitrogen mixing valves that constitute the life support system for the base are in the basement of each block. Each block thus has it's own air supply independent of all the others. The atmosphere in the base will (once things start up) be made by compressing the Martian atmosphere into the base, increasing it's pressure by something like 100 times, all the while mixing in a balanced mix of LOX and LN. This stage is done in heavily insulated chambers. The resultant breathable air is then heated by passing it over electric elements to bring it up to a non-lethal temperature of 10°c. This air is then pumped around the block into the various rooms (Referring to work spaces and offices as well as bedrooms). Each room has it's own independent climate control that can be used to warm the air further. The main public areas with the exception of the garage/hangar will be heated to 18°c, all smaller rooms/work areas/offices can be heated to the temperature desired by the occupants.<br/><br/>The hangar will remain at a chilly 10°c, because it is most frequently exposed to the sub-zero temperatures outside. This is for acclimatisation as much as to save power.<br/><br/>I will add the above to the base description...
