Base decor

Kind of a spew off from another thread but not really that bothered just now its 6am.

My chums and i have started a project with defenders, based on cheerleaders. Formed a new sg clled cheerleaders with tude or somthing like that. anyway we came to build out base and noticed one thing. Beds... unless you want a ropey looking cot, or a torture bed, your sleeping on the floor. I mean hows my girls supposed to have pillow fights and stuff if they havent got a bed to put their cuddle toys on, in fact wheres the cuddly toys?

Anyway i have kind of digressed a bit. What i would like to see, is more options for decore and more decorative items, even blank walls, floors and ceilings would be cool so i can have bright pink walls and nice red carpet (urp!)

Blank walls would also facilitate the ability to make my chillout room in my main base look less like a dodgy backstreet pub.

where was i going with this post again??

Oh aye, the handful of styles we have at present are just lovely, but could we have something more... i dunno... domestic. that way when i am bored i can get my sg into the base, enter build mode and pretend im playing The Sim's

I have been deman...uh, requesting real beds for a while now - the options we have right now are only fit for peasants or villains

*nods agreeingly*

Real beds are definetely high on my wish list too. I mean, where's a girl supposed to get some shut eye if not on a relaxing, cosy bed in the relative safety of her own supergroup base? I don't have a home (gets hard to pay rent when you don't have any cash -- whoever said crime doesn't pay should look at heroism, its diabolical to think we give this kind of service for free!). The SG is my home.

Which means we also need doors - can't have a proper bedroom if it doesn't have a door - especially as the hallways in bases are so wide and tall.
It would also be nice to have a decorative room that was only 1 square in size.

So in all we require more base decor, we need bases to have as much variety if not more then icon has for costumes, can never have enough.

And as everyone else also requests, I to would like to have normal beds, not these things that we currently have which would not look out of place in a Frankenstien movie.

Well, Ive placed many a toilet in a base (using a throne in once instance) and I can tell you, the entire bathroom with shower, bath, changing space, toilet and sink takes less then one square.

Given the space provided by a single square, itd be nice to be able to place them. Some might just use them to link doors and rooms.

If you have nothing useful to say, you have two choices: Say something useless or stay quiet.

I would agree... were it not for the obligatory 'doorway' block.
That makes it so... disajointed.

But that's where the idea of doors comes in - they'd be part of a 1 square wide wall that would adjust to account for the height of the gap it was going in.

Base interior decoration badge ideas:
Badge for:
Pool table (100 missions in sg mode vs. the family)
(Graphics for this and a LOT of other things allready is in game, but not in base designer)
Carpets (500 missions against the Carnival of Shadows)
Oriental pillows (100 missions against the Carnival of Shadows)
Lowtech training equipment (100 warrior missions)
Hitech training equipment (100 council missions)
Water in base (5 times successfull in the sewer trial)
...etc, etc, etc. All theese items are allready in game, just not in the base creator. Making badges for them might be an interesting way to introduce them?

Question is: What group would be best for proper beds? Carnival of Shadows at 250 missions?

I'd prefer them as a free item
If the evil beds are free, then so should the non-evil bed be

non-evil beds should take effort too

/signed on the beds (I currently make them as huge 'play' beds using a raised tile, a diff floor patter, lower wall borders and a color scheme. I get a lot of responses on them. Especially Liz her bedchaimber as it has red 'blankets'. But he, she's a bad girl anyway.

/signed on the one-tile deco room too. But they will not look good without doors.. And because of raids, that is an exploitable think. You can block stuff with it.

Yes, I did that too... got a fair few IC comments that "the beds are too darned big".

Which shouldn't be a real problem, really... limits line of fire, but not accessibility.

I think having differnet grades of door would be best - ther'd be decoration doors that open and shut with a click, right up to blast doors that require some heavy damage to break them open.
