Kudos for mentioning Everyone is John.
And since I’m already typing a reply, I might as well link to another obscure RPG (that I haven’t played):

This is an almost abandoned project from many years ago. But I thought I'd share anyway.
I also thought I'd share a few images from the process...

I've long had problems picturing the way that the spoke in Death Station works. Hope someone here can help me understand it (or figure out a way to explain it).
The image provided is an excerpt from my version of Death Station, but I removed lots of stuff and added the lift shaft and a crude representation of the Pinnacle.
Anyway, if we look closely to the center, I'm assuming that gravitics would keep sophonts in the spoke always pointing towards the same surface, but the ones in the Pinnacle would point to the floor of the ship.
Assuming the airlock points to the left on this image, at some point, the person inside the ship would need to rotate to adjust to the new gravity, or have a weirly shaped ladder.
Alternatively, consider the Pinnacle stationed at 90°:
Here, a stair seems less likely, but rotation still unavoidable.
Have you thought about this? How do you handle it?
Out of the loop here. What are the recent scandals with Discord?
This is probably not what you’re looking for, but it reminded me of the fan-made Polybius scenario for Kult.
But even if its not what you need, it might be useful as inspiration:
Oh, and if you’re not familiar with the urban legend, give it a search on YouTube.
I'm seeing a lot of broken image fallback icons; mostly for community icons and banners, as well as thumbnails for images posted before the migration. Am I the only one experiencing this?
Campaign Cartographer 3+ is indeed only available for Windows. Though I must say that I have it working under WINE just fine. YMMV, ofc.
Glad I could help.
One more thing: The official forum is a place full of very nice and helpful people.
I do use it myself for SciFi (mostly for Traveller) and I like it. Of course, the number of available styles is not as overwhelming as the ones available for fantasy, but there are some good options.
One thing worth noting: for Sci-Fi you definitely want the highest tier, which includes Cosmographer and all the annuals.
The page for Cosmographer shows a few styles: https://www.profantasy.com/products/cos3_examples.asp
And here's a few deckplan exampless on a classic Traveller style: https://www.profantasy.com/products/cos3_deckplans.asp
As for the annuals, there's this post on the forum with a small screenshot/thumbnail for each issue in most annuals: https://forum.profantasy.com/discussion/10366/cartographers-annual-all-the-issues-linked-in-one-place
Finally, there's this Youtube Playlist with a few of the mapping sessions that focused on Sci-Fi styles: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLrFvDl9qgYgsCVt58a41H3rcDjsAc4P4h
maps
That’s the main way it’s used, but there’s no limitation to use it in another way.
There are some styles suited for modern day maps. Or historical maps, such as the April issue of this annual:
https://www.profantasy.com/annual/2022/2022-cartographers-annual.asp
And with Cosmographer and a few annual issues included, there’s plenty of SciFi styles to choose.
They have a YouTube channel where they stream a mapmaking session, you get to see quite a few styles:
This is an almost-everything bundle. For those unaware, every month they release a style, tool or guide and the 12 months make up each Annual Volume.
This page showcases everything in the latest of the included annuals:

Feel free to ask if you want the opinion of a happy customer.
Thanks for the heads up. Do holler if you need help somehow.

Actual plaster. Diluted.
I don't know if there are many types, but it's the one used to fill-in small details or to cover holes left by nails.
