Built into the Fresher it is. (You found it good sir.Originally posted by Sigg Oddra:
Couldn't laundry facilities be built into those multi-purpose freshers? Or alternatively, just get showered fully clothed
Odd that even large ships like the Azhanti, and even Kinunir, that laundry facilities aren't included?
This could explain that odd smell that the scout/courier picks up

OMG! I'm living in the wrong TL. </font>[/QUOTE]Chris,
Go to Lowes. They have a closet that is a clothes dryer, or a dryer that is a closet. (Depending on your point of view.) At least that is where I saw it.
Sidd, thanks for nailing that down! I knew if we looked hard enough, we would find the answer. After 25+ years of development, most every conceivable ships function has probably already been addressed. Time to look at making the fresher a little larger.... hmmmmm.
Actually the fresher in my typical staterooms are full sized bathrooms, or as "full" as you can get in a 5-0"'x6'-6" room... But it includes a enclosed shower, a toilet, a sink with cabinets above and below, and even enough room to take of your shirt.
I just got on a deck plan web group. I'll try to have several versions of "typical" staterooms by this weekend for comments and suggestions.

Bhoins,
I was interested in the "closet does the rest" part (i.e. wash, dry, press; especially the press part). If the closet does everything (other than load the clothes), then I want one!

And we have Drycleaning in your dryer. How much longer before we have one that does all of the above? I figure 3-5 more years tops.

I would imagine that they would also have wrinke resistant(which actually means they get less wrinkles than other fabrics)or even truly wrinkle free fabrics so that when they get washed and dried they are imediately ready to waer (wash and wear, like in the 60's).

And the Higher the tech level the more stain, oder,and wrinkle free the materials becomes.
Also lest we forget, at higher tech levels the fabric may take on more functions. Perhaps it can reflect heat, cold, rain and wind. It could be plugged into a recorder that produces pleasing sight and sound shows or turns Chamelean. You could program it to give personal messages on voice command.

Paper derivative, disposable, recycleable clothes. Wear it, throw it away, it is pulped, cleaned, reformed into new clothes, automatically tailored exactly to the size and correct fashion for the new wearer.
Your view of how cramped a cabin is also depends on your point of view. In all the posts here we are assuming that the passengers will all be human. What is okay for a human would be a bit small for a Virushi (not sure of spelling), but really spacious for a Droyne. I once let my players book a group of 20 desperate Droyne 5 to a stateroom for mid passage rates.
On another point. In an emergency rescue/evacuation mission, how many people could you get into every 1 dton of cargo bay. Using bunk beds, I would guess at 2 per dton. But I think extra life support would have to be installed. This could be a portable unit, on a truck bed or cargo container etc. There is also the issue that if the cargo bay is 2 decks high, a lot of the upper space would be wasted.

Half-bunks are half a ton, and are long term life support for 1, 2 if hot bunked, and include access space.
Now, realistically, assuming 1.5 x 1.5 x 3m, one could probably bunk 4-6 people in that, assuming submarine type accommodations, and minimal LS gear.

And, if you think Type-S funk is bad, wait till you get 50 refugees crammed in that hold, and you don't know what to do with them!

Excellent Flykiller. Nice layouts for staterooms. I'll have to steal..... uh, use those myself. 
Hope you are planning to enter the Deckplan Contest here on CotI.

^ Great idea Fly! I like using MSPaint to sketch deckplans so these will come in handy. Thanks!
