|'''[[DeltaStation|Delta Station]]''' is a map heavily influenced by Meta and Box, with a large centralized bridge area. Intended for higher populations, the map features a more fleshed out and spacious interior lushly decorated and accomodating a large number of potted plants. A large maintenance with a number of useful half-built rooms and areas give antagonists a large variety of spacious areas to make their on station bases and hiding places.

![[File:Flandstation.jpeg|360x360px]] [[FlandStation]]
|A former [[The_Syndicate|Syndicate]] outpost that [[Nanotrasen]] took over. '''[[FlandStation|Fland Station]]''' is a map designed with high population in mind. This station's departments are pretty spread out, the map featuring large common areas and hallways for the crew to enjoy. It also features unusual designs that aren't shared by any other stations, such as the Prison Wing being on an asteroid and the Brig being located at the core of the station.
This map was created for Beestation and is being maintained by PigeonVerde.

|Kilo Station is an older model [[Nanotrasen|NT]] station, built into the side of an asteroid. It's a tight and compact map, featuring expansive maintenance, detail-packed areas, rusted walls, boarded up maintenance rooms, and areas with cosmetic damage are common. North east of the station is an abandoned freight dock providing a good spot for any entrepreneurial cults or antagonists needing a base of operations.
This map was created by Okand37.

|'''RadStation''' is the third active map unique to Beestation, It began its development in late 2022 and was first introduced into early rotation during the summer of 2023. This particular map was specifically designed to cater to mid-low population, focusing on optimizing small spaces and with gameplay in mind. Though slightly smaller then KiloStation, you'd be forgiven for not thinking so during gameplay thanks to its expansive 4 wide hallways and open center.

Developed by BriggsIDP/Floria for Beestation following the footsteps of Fland and Glow.

|'''EchoStation''' is located below the beautiful frozen oceanic planet of 5513-E above a dormant volcanic basin. Because of this it sometimes experiences unique issues unlike other station; including Winter Freezes, and a breathable atmosphere. The map is designed for lower populations requiring many departments to work in close quarters, due to staffing being severely limited. Not only are some departments simply absent (like exploration), others require one person to potentially work multiple positions.

Developed by BriggsIDP/Floria for Beestation for low population timezones.

The station is built inside a cliff, with Its 5 floors going from deep underground all the way to its peak. With a SuperMatter crystal chamber at its core. Its layout depicts 5 floors, with all but the bottom most consisting of central rings with 4 hallways leaving them. The station has a large array of shuttledocks and a drydock for shuttle construction.
This map was the third map unique to Beestation created by kit_katz but was later removed because of performance and gameplay issues.

![[File:PubbyStation.png|360x360px]] [[PubbyStation]]
| PubbyStation was first added to /tg/station's rotation in late 2016. It was created by Pubby, who stated that his goal was "to create a lowpop map derived from my favorite parts of Box and Meta." It shares quite a bit in terms of layout with other popular maps while retaining a distinct identity thanks to its unique design and features.

![[File:EfficiencyStation_FullSize.png|360x360px]] [[EfficiencyStation]]
| The main idea behind Efficiency Station was to make mining the central part of the station, and to surround it with all the departments that immediately need it (robotics, R&D, chemistry, cargo, etc.) to minimize transport times. This design has changed over time, as well with what should directly border that central market area. Furthermore, I made sure to put the main departmental connections side-by-side (chemistry's acid to R&D, R&D to robotics, hydro to kitchen). After that it was just a matter of figuring out where to put security, the bridge, and engineering as medical and science would always be near the center. -W. Johnston, the developer

![[File:Omegastation.png|360x360px]] [[OmegaStation]]
| OmegaStation is a map created by Okand37. It is designed to be a lowpop map, where Heads of staff are limited to one Captain, one Head of Personnel, and one AI. Jobs such as medical doctors and engineers have their available slots reduced to accommodate the smaller station size, among other departments with missing staffing, or equipment.

[[File:CardStation.png|thumb|alt=An image of Cardinal Station|Current State of the map|300x300px]]
'''CardStation''' is currently the 6th and newest station unique to Beestation. It was developed over the course of almost 3 years by BarteG/Bartekek and first appeared on the server on the 22nd of January 2025, being merged 4 months later on the 11th of May.

==Design principles==
*High traffic areas such as security, bridge, and medbay are all located at the ends of the corridors, forcing traffic to go trough the service-oriented center.
*Most rooms directly connected to the corridors also have plentiful windows facing them with optional shutters or curtains. This is done to allow anyone from the corridor to see and talk directly to people who may be busy in their workplace, who would usually be tucked away somewhere far from sight. The shutters are there to permit some privacy to the people working, while their prevalence will make it less likely for anyone to suspect them of shady business if they do choose to close their department off. It's not suspicious if everyone's doing it.
*Greenery is present in most places. Just like in real life, having some plants around makes the whole space more pleasant to look at.
*More gimmick areas such as an actual Theater, Barbershop, decently sized office and a maintenance night club
*To allow for more or less discrete travel between parts of maintenance, there are 6 rooms linked in pairs with disposal pipes

==History==
Cardinal Station's development began in early April of 2022 as the result of frustration caused by the monotony of the outdated Box Station and it's derivatives - Meta Station and Delta station. To get to it's current state, it underwent 5 major refactors from the original concept and countless small changes in between.

It was originally called Bunched Station during development and was finally renamed after a suggestion from ColonelOrion.

|'''EchoStation''' is located below the beautiful frozen oceanic planet of 5513-E above a dormant volcanic basin. Because of this it sometimes experiences unique issues unlike other station; including Winter Freezes, and a breathable atmosphere. The map is designed for lower populations requiring many departments to work in close quarters, due to staffing being severely limited. Not only are some departments simply absent (like exploration), others require one person to potentially work multiple positions.

Developed by BriggsIDP/Floria for Beestation for low population timezones.

[[File:CardStation.png|thumb|alt=An image of Cardinal Station|Current State of the map|300x300px]]
'''CardStation''' is currently the 6th and newest station unique to Beestation. It was developed over the course of almost 3 years by BarteG/Bartekek and first appeared on the server on the 22nd of January 2025, being merged 4 months later on the 11th of May.

===Cardinal Station currently only appears in Test Merges===

==Design principles==
*High traffic areas such as security, bridge, and medbay are all located at the ends of the corridors, forcing traffic to go trough the service-oriented center.
*Most rooms directly connected to the corridors also have plentiful windows facing them with optional shutters or curtains. This is done to allow anyone from the corridor to see and talk directly to people who may be busy in their workplace, who would usually be tucked away somewhere far from sight. The shutters are there to permit some privacy to the people working, while their prevalence will make it less likely for anyone to suspect them of shady business if they do choose to close their department off. It's not suspicious if everyone's doing it.
*Greenery is present in most places. Just like in real life, having some plants around makes the whole space more pleasant to look at.
*More gimmick areas such as an actual Theater, Barbershop, decently sized office and a maintenance night club
*To allow for more or less discrete travel between parts of maintenance, there are 6 rooms linked in pairs with disposal pipes

==History==
Cardinal Station's development began in early April of 2022 as the result of frustration caused by the monotony of the outdated Box Station and it's derivatives - Meta Station and Delta station. To get to it's current state, it underwent 5 major refactors from the original concept and countless small changes in between.

It was originally called Bunched Station during development and was finally renamed after a suggestion from ColonelOrion.

|'''CorgStation''' was the first truly unique map to beestation, not taking any major inspiration from another map. It features a large central drydock for the arrivals shuttle, an expansive and secluded chapel, and a hidden away in maintance assessable asteroid.
This map was developed by our Head coder and maintainer Powerfulbacon

|'''EchoStation''' is located below the beautiful frozen oceanic planet of 5513-E above a dormant volcanic basin. Because of this it sometimes experiences unique issues unlike other station; including Winter Freezes, and a breathable atmosphere. The map is designed for lower populations requiring many departments to work in close quarters, due to staffing being severely limited. Not only are some departments simply absent (like exploration), others require one person to potentially work multiple positions.

Developed by BriggsIDP/Floria for Beestation for low population timezones.

| Glowstation. One of the largest and first acquired terrestrial stations in the sector. A former syndicate shipyard located on lavaland's frozen moon. The station is built inside a cliff, with Its 5 floors going from deep underground all the way to its peak. With a SuperMatter crystal chamber at its core. Its layout depicts 5 floors, with all but the bottom most consisting of central rings with 4 hallways leaving them. The station has a large array of shuttledocks and a drydock for shuttle construction.
This map was the third map unique to Beestation created by kit_katz but was later removed because of performance and gameplay issues.

| PubbyStation was first added to /tg/station's rotation in late 2016. It was created by Pubby, who stated that his goal was "to create a lowpop map derived from my favorite parts of Box and Meta." It shares quite a bit in terms of layout with other popular maps while retaining a distinct identity thanks to its unique design and features.

![[File:EfficiencyStation_FullSize.png|360x360px]] [[EfficiencyStation]]
| The main idea behind Efficiency Station was to make mining the central part of the station, and to surround it with all the departments that immediately need it (robotics, R&D, chemistry, cargo, etc.) to minimize transport times. This design has changed over time, as well with what should directly border that central market area. Furthermore, I made sure to put the main departmental connections side-by-side (chemistry's acid to R&D, R&D to robotics, hydro to kitchen). After that it was just a matter of figuring out where to put security, the bridge, and engineering as medical and science would always be near the center. -W. Johnston, the developer

BarteG: Adds a basic page for Cardinal Station. Done by the station's author.

[[File:StrongDMM-2025-02-22 19.16.17.jpg|thumb|right|alt=An image of Cardinal Station|Current State of the map]]
'''CardStation''' is currently the 6th and newest station unique to Beestation. It was developed over the course of almost 3 years by BarteG and first appeared on the server on the 22 of January 2025.

===Cardinal Station currently only appears in Test Merges===

==Design principles==
*High traffic areas such as security, bridge, and medbay are all located at the ends of the corridors, forcing traffic to go trough the service-oriented center.
*Most rooms directly connected to the corridors also have plentiful windows facing them with optional shutters or curtains. This is done to allow anyone from the corridor to see and talk directly to people who may be busy in their workplace, who would usually be tucked away somewhere far from sight. The shutters are there to permit some privacy to the people working, while their prevalence will make it less likely for anyone to suspect them of shady business if they do choose to close their department off. It's not suspicious if everyone's doing it.
*Greenery is present in most places. Just like in real life, having some plants around makes the whole space more pleasant to look at.
*More gimmick areas such as an actual Theater, Barbershop, decently sized office and a maintenance night club
*To allow for more or less discrete travel between parts of maintenance, there are 6 rooms linked in pairs with disposal pipes

==History==
Cardinal Station's development began in early April of 2022 as the result of frustration caused by the monotony of the outdated Box Station and it's derivatives - Meta Station and Delta station. To get to it's current state, it underwent 5 major refactors from the original concept and countless small changes in between.

It was originally called Bunched Station during development and was finally renamed after a suggestion from ColonelOrion.
