Now here we are making transporter pads out of Klingon barrels, reusing the same three fed walls, and generally making ugly custom interiors.

I have tons of respect for my fellow builders, but our custom interiors are usually pretty dark and ugly, and our ceilings barely have a visible texture.

We're doing the best we can, but with such limited set pieces, we're making ugly maps.

You'd think that a. given that the look of the game is a priority, then b. they would make better props a higher priority.
