Another one! Benie&#8217;s Space Station v4 is under construction(currently in Save Game format) as I speak. It uses a base design, similar to V1, having a Great Room, connecting to a Lounge and a Diner. After that, it differs from it&#8217;s original design, having another Admin Tier, a Docking Tier, and a large Observation Deck.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/beniesbuilds.com\/img\/Benies_SpaceStation\/v4\/gm_flatgrass_revolution0020.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"490\" height=\"382\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:left;\">The Docking Tier got the most love though. A design that separates the Hangars from the rest of the station.<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/beniesbuilds.com\/img\/Benies_SpaceStation\/v4\/gm_flatgrass_revolution0015.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"490\" height=\"382\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Though I feel I&#8217;ve hit a design flaw when it comes to the Admin Tier. You see, I want to to break away like the pics I took of show, link to the Storage and the LS Room, then swing itself around and head back to the station, ending at the Lookout area, under the station.<br \/>\nI&#8217;m thinking of either fucking the &#8216;swing itself around&#8217; part&#8230; or find another way to get the Storage\/LS Room with only Admins having access.<br \/>\nI&#8217;ll probably think of something. Something less tacky.<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/beniesbuilds.com\/img\/Benies_SpaceStation\/v4\/gm_flatgrass_revolution0024.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"490\" height=\"382\" \/><\/p>\n<p>As for the rollercoaster-looking path to the Observation Deck&#8230; well. I wanted it be high over the entire station, so visitors can get a good view of Outer Space without being pushed and shoved in the corridors below.<\/p>\n<p>What made me design something so&#8230; big, again? My crazy RPing imagination. Instead of being focused on&#8230; you know, it&#8217;s focused on what the station would look like with crowds of people, and how happy they&#8217;ll be.<br \/>\nA Space Station is basically a home away from Earth, is it not? But yet I don&#8217;t think of making a Living Quarters tier, Restaurants, Bathrooms, places to shop.<br \/>\nThe way I see a Space Station in Gmod, like most builders, is basically a &#8220;pit stop&#8221; in space. A place to relax and then get back into your ship, or a research thingy. But I tend to take it up a notch, throwing in a complicated, but de-compacted design plan(unlike v3.1), such as the way to the Observation Deck. The ramp to the Docking Bays, soon to be over the Shuttle Bay, and the long corridors.<\/p>\n<p>Also, as a &#8220;treat&#8221;, here&#8217;s <a href=\"http:\/\/beniesbuilds.com\/img\/?b=LOLFUCKUP\">pictures<\/a> of my computer going LOL FUCK UP.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Picture Link Yep.
