I was thinking a bit more about my Not-Star-Citizen MMO, and the idea of noncombat play.

A lot of space ships are things like hospital ships, science ships, passenger liners, and so on. But none of those capabilities are typically reflected in the game, so you have literally useless ships.

I was thinking about ways to make that kind of play fun, and my thinking is:

Your ship is a PLACE. It has a floor plan.

Using that floorplan is the noncombat gameplay. #gameDesign 🧵
