    A quick update: I've been playing with rails on the dev build all week, to prepare for their arrival on my ship. I've been making designs, and grand, GRAND plans. Things currently planned:

    1) A working shipwide tram system
    2) rail-ized hangar doors.
    3) Motorized cargo racks
    4) Rail-reloadable rail gun
    5) complete redesign of all turrets
    6) motorized ship berths (they retract into their niches for maintenance, then elevate to ground level to launch)
    7) Motorized Aux Reactor Bay Racks. ( Load reactors in one place, they get moved along a rail system to another place)
    8) Rail-based elevators
    9) My patented Stay-Put System™ for ship launch and retrieval
    10) Launch Catapults
    11) Various bits of eye candy
    12) A reworked warp core
    13) a reworked reactor core
    14) Deployable missile bays
    15) Deployable super-turrets.
    16) Some eye candy deploy animations for existing super turrets
    17) Increased number of super turrets, decrease number of smaller turrets

    Here is a kind of a progress list, a TODO, as it were, deck by deck.
    Bridge: Main Command area complete, Bridge upper and lower decks still unfinished
    Conning tower: Bridge elevator nonfunctional, Comm deck complete, bridge checkpoint complete. Administrative deck 70% blocked, 50% walled, 50% wall-detailed, 0% decorated.
    Conning Service Deck: 40% blocked, still need to rework interior. Arms 70% blocked, 0% walled, 0% detailed or decorated. (need rails)
    Medical/Science Deck:
    Med bay: 60% complete
    Science Bay: 0% complete
    Tactical Deck: 100% blocked, 30% walled, 30% wedged, 10% complete. Aux Tactical station still non existent, but weapons computer banks complete.
    Crew Deck: 100% blocked, 40% completed. Still need to add more dorms, more dining areas. Main dining hall on top area of ship is 70% completed.
    Flight Ops Deck: Hangar 0 needs to be rail-ized, hangar 1 needs to be completely redone, hangars 2 and 3 (port and starboard wing hangars) are 50% complete, still need to be linked to the rest of the ship. Flight Ops crew areas need a little work. Overall, 30% complete
    Engineering deck: 30% blocked, 10% walled, 5% wedged, 1% detailed. Got a lot more to do on the engineering deck.
