E-004-Oliver: Merchant Freighter Spanial (Docked at Zarg’s World Highport)
In overall layout, Spanial is as follows:
- As a Cargo Freighter, most of its space is taken up with the large forward, cylindrical cargo bay.
- Aft of that, is another cylinder, engineering, containing the power plant, FTL Drives and thrusters.
- The habitat ring circles the base of the engineering cylinder.
- On the ventral surface, a wedge-shaped hangar for the ship’s shuttle.
Most of the space inhabited by the crew is the single-deck Habitat Ring, with layout as shown.
It’s both traditional and convenient (because monitors are wider than high) to show spaceships such as is pictured, flying along to left or right of screen, But like most ships in the Dominion, when Oliver is standing up, his head is pointing to the bow of the ship and his feet to the thruster, and this is reflected in the diagram.
Apart from the named areas, the cabins are numbered, but it’s not clear who is assigned which.
It seems he’s been left to his own devices.
Is there a console in his room or the common room that he can use? Is permission typically required on an admin level?
