I really love Donut 2 and think it's a cool map, but I also realize there's a ton of jank and bad stuff that could use a polishing up. Yell at me to fix stuff and I'll try to get it done. No issue is too small or too big!
Also yes this thread is inspired by the earlier one Vampirate made for mushroom

I kinda hate this map and want to just say, we technically have 2 donut maps in soggy donut (oshan) and donut 3 being currently in rotation.
This said, the kitchen will need full modernizing
The entire zeta outpost should be scrapped and the shuttle ditched and an actual research department properly added (and modernized)
Mining will need to probably exist as well
Security will need modernizing in both the armory and general sec
Medical and Medbooth(?) Will need table mounted defibs added
Some sort of inner maintenance tunnel around the singulo or something else other than fricking R-walls blocking any path around it would be nice

Cog 2 is also kind of a Donut Map as well
Donut 2 is an old map and wasn't designed for modern gameplay elements, so any changes to it will have to I think keep some legacy design choices to keep it spiritually the same. As such, I think you need to keep Zeta, at least conceptually, as a detached Research department

That's far more work than just deleting it and making a new department, considering hellshuttle deals with turf AND atmos interactions and would be a right pain to figure out what the issues are and to fix them. Not to mention the shuttle losing air as it gets used.

Pali mused that their changes may have fixed that shuttle. Has it been experienced lately?

donut should give a passive buff to all security officers, for they are within their beloved fried food

all tiles on donut should be made out of donut, a new and edible material a la pizza
