It's All About That Base
Friday 21st July, 2017. Welcome to this weeks issue of TKC! In this report you will be reading about the changes within KoH’s base design. What have been changed from the previous one. What new stations have come, what are their functions, and what has been removed. Keep reading in order to see all the changes made, and before vs after pictures.
Let’s start with Transfer desk. The first and most obvious change with the Transfer desk is where it’s new location in base is. It has been moved from the middle front of FTF to the upper right corner of the room. The chairs and desk are still the same. From being on the same level as FTF it has now been lifted up on some cabin stone tiles in order to give some variations in levels. This helps to frame the area into A small room just for that particularly function. By moving the Transfer desk to the corner makes the room more spaced and avoids any confusion for visitors who are looking to join as A Traveler. This was seen from time to time in the old base due to it being located at the same place as FTF.
The next change to talk about is the VIP/ Throne area. This is probably the biggest change in the new base. First of all the VIP chairs from the previous base has currently been removed in the new base design. VIP visitors may still enter but they will be teleported to FTB instead, just as every member of the Kingdom. The new throne area has become bigger and has dropped A few levels down from where it was before, making it more at the same level as the base. Yet it is build with cabin stone tiles, making it an interesting design with various of levels. The throne area includes chairs for iL members to use, with A dragon throne in the back centre for the queen. The Citadel banners used to be at the front entrance of base in the previous design, but are now been moved to hang over the throne area instead. Over all the new throne area has made the base look more clean and open.
Another small change of the base design is the FTF. In the previous design the chairs where faced towards the entrance, while in the new design it has been rotated to the left so that it is facing the training station instead. By rotating the entire FTF and removing the Transfer from the line, makes the FTF more straight. Also you can now see the faces of the workers instead of their back, which is always A bonus. The furnitures remains the same as in the old base.
Announcements, Announcements, Announcement! This is an important part of the agency. To keep all the members up to date on different events, meetings, change of policies etc etc. So where has the Announcements stage moved? Let’s take A look shall we! In the old base design the stage where located at the very left side of the room. right between the FTF and the old VIP/ throne area. In the new room design it has moved to the middle of base, right between FTF and Help Desk. This has made the space where it was located before more open, also by taking advantage of the free space in the middle of base makes the room look well thought out and is A nice technique to use.
Last change of the base design is the entrance part. It is mostly the same as before, however a few changes have been made. In the previous design we used to have chairs right next to the entrance door. The chairs have been moved slightly to the left (towards FTT), and also have been cut down to only two chairs. Also as mentioned earlier, the Citadel Banner has been moved to the throne area. The mannequins have moved to standing behind the two chairs, instead of being separated on each side of the entrance door like before. So what do you do with the free space you just created? Well the queen has decided to add a new station there! It is A pretty simple design only decorated with kitchen blocks, in A half square on each side of the door. The room inside of the square have been used to put some sort of A banzai in there so that it is easy to teleport to the station. All in all, the new entrance have become more of A clean design.
For the other stations that you have not been reading in the report.... it has remained the same design as in the old base, therefore it was not mentioned anything specific about them. This includes FTT, FTWS, FTB, FTHD and FTS.
These were all the biggest changes of the base design. Feel free to give your opinion on what you preferred best, or if you have any suggestions for the design in the future. You can do that by sending A message to me (Angkaa) or one of TKC leaders.
