can we please get AoD interior to walk around in. The engle could use a new bridge given where located.
To paraphrase previous dev streams: the amount of work required to make a ship interior is the same as it takes to make a map for a full mission. The difference is that the population (on average) doesn't spend much time on ship interiors whereas episodes are the game's bread and butter.
If a DSC-era bridge which isn't a Crossfield or Walker makes it into the game for story reasons, chances are it'll be made usable for relevant DSC ships (extra bang for the buck which could help the bridge get made in the first place.) But Cryptic isn't likely to go out of their way to make a bridge just so DSC ships have one that's the right way up. Would be great if they could, but there's a lot of other things they need to work on and they have to prioritize content that'll have the biggest impact.
(To reconcile the problem for my Nimitz I've been using standard bridges on the retcon that in updating the ship with modern tech they've also updated it with a modern interior. Not all headcanoning can accommodate, but it's something to think about.)
