SS14 Mapping Design
Mapping
- Follow mapping standards and checklist docs.
- Keep map content using existing prototypes unless Shine-specific content belongs under
_sh.
- Validate atmos, power, cameras, telecoms, cargo, evac, arrivals, docking, and spawn points.
- Check missing prototypes and map load failures.
Design
- Prefer design goals and player experience over raw feature lists.
- Check department responsibilities and undesired gameplay.
- Consider accessibility, admin burden, balance, and round-flow impact.
- For proposals, use the proposal/design-doc templates.
