So with the new Research Lab holodeck Fleet project being highlighted currently...

Now would be the perfect opportunity to add a simple, universal 'Foundry panel' to ALL holodecks in the game - actually making them finally functional as starting points for holo-storytelling/research/testing. :)

    Yeah, it would be nice if they had some function.

    I always wondered why they even have them in game, like on my Fleet Starbase, if they aren't going to make them do something.

    Agreed. At the moment, the holodecks on fleet starbases are only taking up space. It would be very nice if they could be made functional.

    Wouldn't access to these as start points preclude fleetless players?

    Not that I disagree with the intent... but having the universal panel there wouldn't address missions with start missions elsewhere ... or am I missing the point of your post?​​

    I'd rather see cryptic implement changes to the Foundry UI (ex. better filters, more options) than tie it off to an optional fleet holding component. :P

    Nice idea, but for something like this it needs to be less consequential (ex. loads up a specified hologaphic setting for fleet social functions. No missions.)

    It depends. Can a door be setup for "any holodeck"?

    Ie. a Foundry mission that is set to "any Holodeck" could be launched from Krenim holding, Fleet Starbase, Starfleet Academy, or Bajor. And DS9 if the interior gets revamped.

    Precisely.

    If you look at the second link in my OP, you'll see that proposal. ANY holodeck can be used to start holo-missions. That's what I mean by 'universal'.

    Doen't matter if it's the holodeck on your Fleet Starbase, the ones at Starfleet Academy, on Bajor, whatever - ALL holodecks are the same.
