Hey there, I’ve been sketching out a modular survivor outpost that could be upgraded like a dungeon map—think of a base that evolves with your strategy, kinda like the best parts of your favorite RPGs. What do you think?

Got it, let’s lock in the core hub first and then bolt on those modular wings. I’ll sketch a linear path layout so you can keep the enemies in check, and add a new defensive perk each time you upgrade. That way every choice feels like a real tactical move, not just another loot drop. Ready to start the blueprints?

Picture the core as a little cross‑shaped hall: a central command node at the intersection, four narrow corridors radiating out like a plus sign. Each corridor is only wide enough for a single‑player to squeeze through—think 3‑foot lanes. At the end of each corridor, place a small choke point—a short, narrow alcove that forces anyone coming through to stop and expose themselves. That way, when you add wings later, you can plug them into the ends of these corridors or into the corners between them, keeping the flow tight and the enemies guessing.

Cool, let’s hook the first wing right off the north corridor. I’ll line it up so its entrance is a 2‑foot pass, then a 90‑degree turn that feeds into a secondary alcove—another trigger spot. That keeps the enemy flow tight and gives you a chance to pull them into a firefight before they hit the core. Ready to map that out?

Got it—2‑foot entrance, a tight 90‑degree turn, and that alcove lines up straight with the core choke. The trigger will fire into the core’s grid, so every shot counts. For the next wing, let’s do the south side. Same 2‑foot pass, but this time add a small loop before the alcove so you can set up a secondary firing line—keeps the enemies moving and lets you rotate the defense. Ready to sketch that one?

So the south wing is a 2‑foot pass, then a quick 180‑degree loop that squeezes back into the core choke. The loop is just wide enough for one person, so the enemies have to keep moving. From the loop, a secondary line goes straight back to the main choke, giving you a split‑fire spot. That keeps the pacing tight and the defense grid humming.
