@@googlepixelutai8310 well, that's a fair question. I'll try to answer that from the game's perspective since the reason for commuting in SC is mainly to reposition yourself. In a game, wasting time is wasted gametime and also lost revenue (UEC), hence I mentioned time. But, if your plan is to hop into a bed, log off, and log back into the game at your destination then I guess speed isn't so much an issue as your safety and security (nobody wants a surprise log in at a hospital). But, this is also where I could argue that speed creates safety since less time spend in open space means less chance of encountering random hostiles.

@@sirberticus3815 Thats a great answer and a fair point and youre right but I ask myself do you really would steer a passenger jet yes, but when your starting point is dubai, and your destination is USA maybe new york(by now I think there should be also security on board in case the pilot is the threat), would you steer your passenger plane through ukrain or War territories or thunderstorms where you could be easily shot down or would you avoid it and make the travel even longer by going around it. I cant really see why you would lose UEC because airlines make the tickets more expensive. Dont nail me on that but if I remember correctly when the Airplane is full of ppl the airline has to fly the plane I think it was around 10 times to make profit so it has repaid itself.

Every seat needs an escape pod and an optional bed, neither of which are on a real jetliner today. So technically there are 120 (3x40) places to sit or lie down. And besides, today's jetliners don't have an entire habitat and recreation area for the crew either. and finally, NPCs can't be as flexible as real humans when it comes to leaning over seats and squeezing past galley carts.

@@sirberticus3815 I understand and I'm not comparing this to a typical jetliner; just seems to me space-wise for a passenger liner, its more of a cargo hauler than passenger hauler. My original comment was more of an observation than a critique.

@@Orodben "scenic", as opposed to "panoramic" ?

I'd love to see it. You do great work.

NOT ENOUGH TOILETS!

Can't wait to see your version of it.

@@sirberticus3815 Dang I guess you're right, nobody can criticize anything unless they personally do that thing and do it better. Watched a bad movie? Can't say anything, after all, can you make a better one? Didn't like a video game? Can't comment, unless you think you could do better? Try a more substantive response next time

@@Timberjac NPCs need at least 2x2 as much space to navigate around eachother so the typical 18 inch isles and 32" pitch seats in today's airliners would never work here. But, if I could put 200+ seats on the Genrsis then I'd also need to put 35 (THIRTY-FIVE!) escape modules! That alone would grow the ship to over 3x it's concept size. The face-to-face seating allows me to seat 4x passengers in -25% less space. Having them all face front would grow the ship again to Carrack size. Giant ships are not fast. Nobody wants to travel on a slow bohemoth.

@@sirberticus3815 An option for escape pods. Let the passenger modules themselves be the escape/life preserver capsules. Each of the passenger modules could autonomously contain life support and access to emergency rations. In fact, they could be prepared to support twice as many people traveling in the same module, in case any of the other modules are damaged, so that they can evacuate people from the damaged module to those that are not damaged. If each module is separated from the others by a double bulkhead with emergency doors, the main part of the hull could be the "lifeboat" itself. Actually, most of the damage that spreads putting the aircraft at risk is going to possibly be in the cabin, in the wings or wherever the fuel is and in engineering. The obvious solution is that instead of having capsules for each passenger, what is separable are these sections that are possibly the ones that cause damage and threaten passengers. Thus, if the cockpit section (which may have double berths that are escape pods, to minimize wasted space, but we evencan doubt that the cockpit will be so dangerous), is separable and the wing and engineering section is also separable, the main passenger and cargo section becomes a lifeboat that can hold crew and cargo. Also if you want, you could have the main body separated between the different modules in cross sections, but this would not be necessary at first either. With the engine and wing section separated, the risk to passengers is minimal. And if we talk about someone wanting to attack and kill the people in the passage, it will not matter if they have to shoot much more at the main section that would act as a lifeboat, than if they are dedicated to hunting the different rescue capsules. And even if the goal is charging, it's still as easy as keeping cargo isolated from the various passenger modules (that would also prevent one of them from trying to access the cargo, which it shouldn't be able to do). After all, whoever wants to steal the cargo can do so and his criminal offenses will be some, while his crimes will multiply in amount and seriousness if he tries to destroy the passenger modules. Nothing is really going to stop a murderer from trying to kill, you can only hope that most criminals will consider that they won't go after them so much if they don't kill passengers. In this way, the need to have an incredibly immense space of rescue capsules is reduced and everything that has been gained in passengers is a reduction in prices per passenger. Because in the beginning, the entire main body where there are passenger modules, is itself the emergency capsule itself... In fact, several, because each modular passenger section could serve for itself and as a backup for another or half of another (even if they had to sit on the floor) if it has been damaged and has been able to be evacuated. And it will always be much better for the safety of the passenger to stay in their section or evacuate an adjoining one, than to have to go through the ship, precisely to the most dangerous sections (wings and engineering/engines) and after having toured the ship, wait in the corridors for each passenger to sit in an orderly manner with the sections of greatest danger around them (which honestly, This does seem like the biggest death trap that I don't think any Civil security office. What I do know is that the ship in its current concept is little less than useless for the function it should have... Because what is the use of an aerospace-passenger airline if for what it is going to have to make each passenger pay, it is half or a quarter or even a tenth of what a small aircraft would cost that can really take you anywhere, or depending on what routes, simple modifications of other aircraft can do a similar job. I'm really sorry, because it was a ship that I was very excited about... But what I see is far from exciting.

P.S.: I understand the technical reason that NPCs need so much space to move through a ship, all the more reason, so as not to waste space in more and more corridors.

@@prathia8699 that's why I've retained 2 proper staircases (port & starbord) so you're not dependend on the mini lifts only.
