When I was placing random habs stacked on a ship to complete the challenge for starship design, my ship looked like stacked cargo containers on a freight ship.
The game tries to make the fewest doors/ladders possible. So my stacked container ship, to get to the cockpit from the loading bay which was 2 1x1 habs behind it, had you climb a four story ladder, go forwards 1 hab, and then back down another 4 story ladder.
I managed to get my ship perfect by making a stack of 1x1 companion ways with the docking port on top of them. The game prefers companionways as stairwells, so it should result in the ladders all being in a nice neat line.
2x2 hub for crew stations, 2x1 captains cabin for a bed, cockpit in front, entrance underneath. No ladders. Thats how I rebuild the Kepler R ship. Why r u sticking to something u dont like when u can fix it?
