A.I Han solo data bead ship install

Space combat and ship mechanics need to be implemented first.
Also it's "Hand So", not "Han solo". it's an anagram for the name of another AI.
The consensual content has been finished and submitted I believe. I think I remember reading that its implementation is waiting on ships to be expanded upon, and I've seen little news indicating that that's coming any time soon so doesn't seem like it. I haven't lurked that long though so what do I know.
Nonsuch said that it needs to be redone to go with however the ship stuff is going to work. So it isn't exactly finished and submitted.
Curious about how they're planning on executing ship mechanics though. I'd have imagined it being little more than normal combat recontextualized into something appropriate for ships, giving buffs for crew members and basing evasion/damage/etc on the different models. Maybe expanding them into their own cells to explore or just allowing more storage slots, giving crew member limits and assigning stats to each one to create the illusion of variety. If only it was higher on the priority list, really want that Dom So ¯\_(ツ)_/¯Nonsuch said that it needs to be redone to go with however the ship stuff is going to work.

You will get two ships. The basic clunker you start with and the unlimited crew one that was a kickstarter reward tier. Those are the only two that were explicitly promised to get in.
There's also ship upgrades and that promised capitol ship is most likely endgame content.
Ship combat and stuff IS Gedan's current top priority.
Kiro's and Saendra's ships are large enough to warrant their own maps (although that's more likely due to them being a dungeon than anything else). Even the current clunker would, based on seeable events and basic requirements, have 6 rooms: bedroom, bathroom/shower, engine room, living/rec room, kitchen, and piloting/command deck. Although, it's supposed to feel cramped so I could see it getting shrunk down to bedroom-bathroom room, kitchen-rec room, piloting/command deck, and engine room.
And because it feels bad when the ship interior isn't symmetrical, it would have to look like a capital 'E' or its reverse. The engine room and command deck would have to take up two squares each, and the only way to enter the bedroom is through the kitchen. The only way to (safely) leave the ship would be through the kitchen-rec room.
That's to say nothing of other ships that would likely have a medical bay, a navigation room, an armory for small arms (do you think we would ever encounter events where we get boarded?), and a space for ship guns unless those get taken care of on the command deck.

Doesn't have to be anything. Ship symmetry is for the anal retentive, not the practical. The Phoenix isn't symmetrical, it's only 4 squares (not counting elevator and cargo hold).
Any and all vehicles tend to be designed in a symmetrical fashion as it provides a weight distribution that is stable and easy to control. That would even apply to spacecraft, even in space. There are examples of asymmetry, but for the reasons above, they aren't common, and usually have an unusual reason for that design.
That said, the interior of TiTS' spaceships are slightly more unlikely to be symmetrical, at least to our eyes, due to everything being a square and there being a set amount of rooms per ship.

Could answer this question seriously, but I've done that a hundred times before and I can't stop laughing at that title. Harrison Ford's mug in that green matrix code, grunting that humanity is on the verge of a new era, kid.
You are limiting your cartographical process in MULTIPLE ways. 1) You're ignoring the third dimension. 2) You're presuming that every room is a dead end, or only has one door. 3) even accepting both of those premises it could easily be a plus sign formation.
Love this
Ain't no one gonna write that.
Speaking of kink I wish I was an oil baron so I could throw a hundred grand at Koda and get him to single handedly save smut.
You guys don't know what we've lost.

I'm fairly new to this forum. Can you expand on who Koda/Shax is and the tragedy of his/her departure?
Sorry to quote super old forums posts but this necromancy brought this to my attention so..
So that’s the origin of Nonesuch’s profile picture huh? Nice!

Hand So is an anagram of Shodan from System Shock.
Han Solo against the Matrix Code is just an extra and partially related layer to it all.
