In Response To: Re: One thing against Halo, sadly (Dagoonite)


: Also remember that a single bed can be used by different shifts. Shift A uses
: their bed, gets up, does their thing before their shift begins, then at
: shift change, Shift B does the same.

Might take a page from Trek's book (space permitting) and have doubled up accommodations for enlisted and single occupancy for officers.

: Another place to look for reference would be real-life naval ships. Again,
: they have the focus of cramming as much as possible into a confined space
: to possibly give you some ideas. As well, you might be able to get an idea
: as to what all would be needed on the ship, with alterations for it being
: in SPAAAAACE of course. It's easy to forget that there's a separation
: between officers and enlisted men in every level, including bunks and
: galley.

I do have some references for the Navy and I do research that for my continuing sci-fi education.

: Another place to look is the real-world space program -- it comes in handy to
: remember stuff like "Oh, crap, I forgot that crew members have to
: BREATHE." It's honestly amazing what all a person can easily overlook
: that would be necessary. Then again, this is SF, so there's a lot of
: leeway where a person can nudge one way or another.

I've been steeped in Trek Tech for 35 years now. :) (...from my first model of the starship Enterprise made from an ice cream lid, paper towel cores, and Scotch tape)
