Reception lobby

The Reception Lobby is a location on Level 5 in Sector D. It acts as a primary spawn location for those in the Visitor role, and is considered a central part of the map in conjunction with the Atrium.

Beta 0.7
In JKRF Beta 0.7, part of the office-themed administration area on Level 4 was carved out into a reception lobby with a few rows of waiting benches. It was initially intended as a joke where people can wait for the long-delayed release and opening of the Pinewood Oil Platform, another JKR game in development at the time.

Offices for high-ranking JKR administration members were originally located adjacent to the Reception Lobby, which were later replaced by a conference room. A ceiling turret was also formerly located in the reception lobby, which was removed in a later update.

Beta 0.9
The redesign of the Atrium in Beta 0.9 added an upper level to the Atrium at the same level as the Reception Lobby, providing access between the reception area and the Atrium. New benches were also added around this time.

Beta 0.12
During the Foundation Update, a second level was added to the lab hallways, which changed the Atrium upper level to Level 5. As a result, the floor level that the Reception Lobby is located at was also changed to Level 5. In this update, the administration area's hallway colors were made more brown, with the Reception Lobby alongside it.

Beta 0.15
Additional plants and some trash bins were added in the Beta 0.15 update.
