The 'Service Art' would be completely artistic fillers for one or more of the 4 services that can be accessed on foot inside a carrier: genomics, bartender, shipyard and pioneer supplies. The new items would fill these same spots with artistic items to make the ship feel more alive and active when the carrier owner did not have those slots filled with actual service modules. The Service Art would: have at least 1 npc in them, be of at least four types, take up no cargo space, require no upkeep, perform no task and be added and removed using the existing carrier management rules.
Example: art gallery (some art and 1 or 2 NPCs admiring them).
Example: Gaming Center (two NPCs sit opposite one another across a checkerboard type image made up of 5 different color checkerboard boxes. Each player has a small panel in front of them on their side of the game table. After some time one of the two players touches their panel and an animation plays and one square on the board changes color. This continues indefinitely, each player taking turns respectively.
Example: Fitness Center (shows treadmill, some free weights, jump ropes etc and one or two people in poses stressing they have already worked out. (sitting with head facing down, elbows on knees, towel across back of neck, etc.
Example: Crew Breakroom (hot and cold beverage containers, table, cupboards with semi-transparent glass showing the silhouettes of food and drink items (thus avoiding excess art time producing the image of each food or drink item separately) and 1 - 4 people sitting at table or a random chair taking a break)
Example: Reflection Garden: has various plants and 1-2 people relaxing and there would be a viewing area of a small statue of Cmdr Raedawn (okay, okay, okay, some random mythological type statue then!)
P.S. If you use this type of idea would it not seem appropriate that a certain someone get at least the initial offerings of such Service Art free for her carrier.
