I'm trying to make a middle building be designed in the way that whoever controls it, has a bigger advantage over capturing a point, that way i'm hoping this gonna give teams another an optional area to fight for.

I like the idea of the horseshoe-shaped height advantage in the house with the disadvantaged area connecting to the bridge. I'm interested in how exactly its relevance to the point will work.

So, in one of the buildings, I clipped in this wall (it's a tiny wall, you can only rocket jump to it):

And also, you're doing the same mistakes I did with my map, arena_ethanol. Don't do them. Read the thread, read the feedback, and find out what were my mistakes and what are yours. Don't make a shitty map like I did. Don't.

Your biggest problems are as follows:

-The way your spawns are set up, all players are funneled along the path opposite the side with the building in mid. People are not using much of the map.
-The run-time from spawn to the point is a little long, especially if you don't use the path I mentioned above (furthering the problem that people aren't using the whole map)
-Most areas of the map are too wide and flat, and aren't interesting to fight on (especially the outdoor areas).

This map sure has a lot of custom textures for an alpha.

I know it's an alpha and detailing is not final, but there are, like, six different kinds of textures in the first screenshot alone. You don't want to repeat the failures of koth_desertsnowalpineindustrialswampegypt.
