Remodeled/Upgraded Base Design Question.

Thanks to the Episode 13 infusion of prestige, I upgraded our base
plot to the Small Secure Location.

I also migrated the row of smaller Teleporter rooms into 3 secure
teleport bays, upgraded the control room, the powerplant room, and
also installed a spiraling maze of security corridors to the (skweee!)
Secure Containment Hall. I kept the main control room I started with,
and had room for a small additional workshop. I have it set up so
that to get to the Vault, raiders will have to fight past security
corridors, the powerplant, the control room, more security
passageways, and then the Vault itself.

The only afterthought I am having is that it might be worth a look to
see if I can squeeze in another medlab someplace else in the base; I
don't want attackers "camping the respawn". (but then again, they
have to fight thru security corridors to get to it in the first
place... I don't want to over build, so redundant power rooms (I can
still have 2 generators) and redundant control rooms are not in the
floorplan space.

I am reading up on how some are using the transparent backsides of
paintings as "forcefields" and I hope to see if I can use this to set
up some choke points. I'd also like to find a majestic way to make the
Item of Power holder rise up higher in the room, so I'll look at
stacking desks...I know about creating a false ceiling to help obscure
the 6 anchors.

Any other base building tricks y'all wish to share? Again, our SG is
not super active, but as of late we recruited some new faces that have
really been working hard.

Addendum: by deleting the Gauntlet security hallway and replacing it
with a couple smaller security corridors, I was able to put an
infirmary in its place, move the old infirmary over to next to the
teleporter bays, and instead of the tiny lab and a small lab, I have
one big lab. I want to post the map so you guys can see it. Now I
need to spend a couple days decorating and outfitting it. I have
plenty of power right now, but will need more control soon.
BTW, once I put the holder into the vault, the mission computer says
that the CoPain is not accessible right now. Is it still down?
