Custom Prefab Changes for A20

 I always like to overhaul my prefabs before the next update. So i've been mainly working on the Carrier server hub prefab. I've managed to improve performance by 50% for this prefab since it's often the worst performing area on the server while being the first place people spawn. Some of the changes will require a new system for the player stores, rented vending machines and player quarters. Having every single one fully furbished has a huge performance impact.



 

So now there is 1 "demo/example" store for both types and the same with the quarters. The rest are empty and "shuttered". Donators who wish to run a store or setup their quarters can now simply build it how they want. The only rules are you can only have 2 vending machines in the smaller stores and 4 in the larger ones for donators. Any player may also place their own vending machine in the vending machine area (1 per player only) This is to help keep performance at an acceptable level since those vending machine models are pretty expensive especially if every player where to cram 4-8 in their stores. The other rule is obvious don't build anything intended to be malicious to other players or try to troll other players with intentionally offensive or inappropriate imagery.

Other than that there are a couple other changes like the vehicle bay is now gone. It never really served a purpose. A couple deck aircraft have been removed and some other minor design improvements. Some bathrooms have also been removed (again never really served a purpose) and finally all the removed areas have been sealed and all paint removed in the sealed off areas to reduce memory requirements.

I've also added some paint art to give the area some character, they are really cheap performance wise so why not XD.


I also took the time to re-organise and update the screenshot gallery's here. The main gallery was getting pretty ridiculous. So the main gallery has the current alphas screenshots and links to separate pages for each of the previous alphas. Same with the project gallery's, images should load in better now feel free to take a peak :P.
