    Is it possible to modify game rules and, if so, how?

    I think this is going to work! Thank you so much, I will let you know how it goes :)

    Is it possible to modify game rules and, if so, how?

    I might as well lay out exactly what I want to do since it is so specific. On a 5CP map, capping mid opens the next point, but it is still possible for the other team to capture mid back from your team. Would it be possible to modify this, so that capping mid locks it temporarily? So that the...

    Why does splash damage go through the grate on 2Fort?

    I was able to work around this issue by putting a bulletblocks2 layer both over AND under the grating. There's also an area-portal between there...is that maybe what is disrupting the bulletblocks layer from working in both directions?

    Why does splash damage go through the grate on 2Fort?

    This is getting weirder by the minute...occasionally the splash will fail to pass through despite there being no difference from panel to panel. Seems to happen about one in ten times. Switched to just testing it with Demoman and self-damage. Should have thought of that sooner :)

    Why does splash damage go through the grate on 2Fort?

    I just confirmed it, the grates let splash damage go through even with the original map.

    Why does splash damage go through the grate on 2Fort?

    I got a report from a playtester and have tested it with bots. It is also how things work on the original map, I think. Let me check.

    Why does splash damage go through the grate on 2Fort?

    Just a unit or two...I'll try making it 8 and see what happens. I'm a bit confused though, why would thickness matter? That seems odd.

    Why does splash damage go through the grate on 2Fort?

    Some additional details: I have even tried putting a brush covering the whole grate from below with the "blockbullets2" texture and this failed to stop splash damage from going through.

    Why does splash damage go through the grate on 2Fort?

    I am working on a modification of 2Fort and I can't, for the life of me, figure out how to stop splash damage from going through the dropdown grates that are right outside of spawn. Please help! Bullet damage does not go through, projectile does not either, obviously players don't...what am I...

    The goal of this redesign is to take 2fort and streamline gameplay, making it less random and spammy. At the same time, we hope to preserve the features of 2fort that make it iconic (the sniper decks, the turtle nests around intel, the long walks through sewers etc.) The spiral route and ramp...

    Thanks, Tyler, that's much more helpful. In those earlier posts, I was just getting told "no" without any real explanation besides that it's been tried before. I will definitely be reading up on the links you just posted. However, I still have a hard time believing that there isn't a dollar...

    ctf_2Fort_remixed

    It's not that I don't value your opinion, I'm just baffled by the haughtiness and negativity of this community. I posted this morning with a request that is simpler than most in the thread (editing instead of creating a map from scratch) and even wrote that I'm willing to pay anyone who is...

    It hasn't been done. If any of the maps you just mentioned had really succeeded, they would still be in rotation these days.
