These assets are part of the Sci-Fi and Modern pack now, download it here.

I watched a lot of ISS footage for inspiration, it's super interesting and I highly recommend it! The zero-g toilet is from this video and the treadmill from this one. They also have those blue hand rails everywhere.

It's also fascinating how there is no floor in a zero-g environment, so stuff is distributed on all sides of the space station. I was very tempted to draw everything from multiple angles, but making maps that way is probably not very practical anyway!

Tips:

The portals are included as objects as always, you can resize and color those. This time I also included a 3/4 square gap to the portal menu, that way you can actually have narrow doors. It is only an empty spot in the menu, because it is transparent, but it exists!
You can change the transparency of the colorable part of any object in the color menu. It's the slide on the bottom. So if you prefer your holo-screens to be more see-through you can change it!

You may or may not have noticed that the floors this time around don't have hard black lines. After asking for feedback on the discord the majority preferred them this way because it looks better with furniture. Fell free to leave your own feeback on that, if everyone prefers it that way I might change the other floors retroactively!

Stay healthy everyone, and happy mapping!
