 Using either **@desc** or the room-editor **editroom**, edit the appearance of this room to look like the command center of your ship - or any other part of your ship if you are making something other than a bridge.
+When describing spaceship interior rooms, please remember that we don't have artificial gravity or inertial dampers on our ships!  That technology doesn't exist in our setting.  Large space stations can provide artificial gravity through rotation, but that method is not practical for most spaceships.  Your spaceship interior will be either in microgravity or under acceleration most of the time.  Interior furnishings should reflect this with hand-holds, ladders, bunks and storage where equipment can be held securely.
