Whilst working on the atmosphere and gas systems I thought I should balance how I expect a small ship to look like, what components it would have and how much power and air it would need to be a fully functioning space ship.

Here is a ship with a generator, console, transponder, life support system, thruster and then all the cables, ducting and vents required for everything to work and keep the crew safe. I suspect these items will need to support at least 3 crew members but will be fairly inefficient once you start to build larger ships, meaning you will need to build different components and plan out how you will lay your cables, ducting and ventilation as your ship grows. This will be especially important when you consider things like maintenance and combat situations.

Don't forget you can head over to the discussions section of the game if you have any questions.

In this dev video we briefly ramble on about the atmosphere systems in SpaceSlog, amongst other things.

The atmosphere systems are now mostly done and our focus has been turned to Ai.
