Game Play:

-Redesigned left attack route to no longer go lower down to a stair case, but instead to be a flat platform that goes from crane house to the roof. This platform raises up in height and slightly juts out at the top for scouts.

-Health kit and ammo kit under patio are moved to the side of the platform. The kits have been moved closer to attackers.

-Shed on point has had the wall closest to the point reduced in size. this is to reduce cover for those who hid inside. A new staircase was built in it's place to make it easier to get to point from inside.

-Towers have been changed to have ramps that go around from right to pointing towards the opposing roof. This is to replace the box jump scouts once had; it ended up being clunky and requiring multiple jumps to use it properly. So the new version should better benefit those who want height from the tower.

-Blocker that use to be in between crane house and saw house has been removed and the sky box was raised in the area as well. This should make it easier to launch on to the point from left side while still stopping the defenders from utilizing it as bomb method. It most likely still will be used that way, but the sky box drops quickly making it unlikely to be a high bomb.

-Blocker in between saw house and garage has been removed.

-The previous crouch jump to jump that was in the mid transition to left transition has been removed. It has been replaced by a ramp that steadily gets higher to a simple jump at the top. This will make rotations hopefully easier while I come up with a better less ugly solution.

-Raised terrain in valley and up to mid. This is to make it easy to tap jump into saw house from mid without needing to take the previous long route. The stairs are no longer required to get into saw house. Getting on to porch in valley is also just a tap jump. This has also reduced the height difference between roof and valley.

-Raised terrain were patio used to be to better meet the new platform.

-Changed angled ramp where right transition exits in to the backyard. The angle is now a rough 30 degrees instead of 45.

Building Redesigns:

-Saw house, crane house, closet house, and valley building have had their brushwork completely redone in order to reduce total amount of textures on screen. This means that a lot of brushwork was simplified.

-Closet house got its finalized detail work.

-Closet house now only has one window.

-Valley building got its finalized detail work.

Clipping fixes:

-New clipping was made for the new platform.

-New clipping for crane house to fix what the redesign broke.

-New clipping for closet house to ensure it is up to date with the rest.

Performance fixes:

-Hints have been redone to properly cut visleafs where people can't see them. This should reduce how much is culled in at once.

-The sky box has been redone in multiple areas to help reduce the amount of unused space.

-The sky box runs along multiple building to better stop visleafs from seeing each other.

-Area portals have been placed in between valley and saw, and in between saw and crane house. This will even further help with culling out what can't be seen.

-Large amounts of brush entities were converted to func_illusory. This is because they did not need to have clipping to them.

Minor changes:

-Removed sheet metal prop in blu saw house for brushwork that better represents the ramp.

-Redid some displacements.

-Red side spawn has new props and a change in saw design.

-Blu lost a lot of trees.

-Changed props on blu side to better fit the atmosphere of their side.

-Changed lighting on blu side to better fit the atmosphere of their side.

-Changed a large amount of textures on blu side to better fit the atmosphere of their side.

-Removed a large amount of random unseen textures.

Main Changes:

-The right transition leading out of spawn has had its door changed to be taller. The sight blocker has been removed to make roll outs easier. The first ramp has been widened and has had it's clipping more unified.

-The left transition exit into backyard has been widened to help pushes through it.

-The porch coming out of right transition has been extended under the building in valley. A fence was put up to block a sight line that could of been created.

-The crane house has been redone for both sides and includes new clipping as well. This includes new doors out the left side to make it harder for defenders to stuff you before you get through.

-The height blocker between crane and saw house has been changed to its art passed form and has a smaller hit box on the bottom compared to the old one.

-Closet has been changed to better help attackers and is open through valley but no longer patio. The door to shed and point has been widened to better help pushes through it.

-Scout ramps on the patios have been added back to allow pushes up to the enemies roofs again.

-Removed the fence on balcony. Instead 2 boxes have been placed up against saw house and it should allow the gathering of info more than the fence did.

-The wall in between crane and closet has been redone to its art passed form and better fits the skybox.

-The skybox has been completely reworked to fit the environment more snugly. This will hopefully make it easier on older PCs.

-The piece of wood on the ground next to tower has been removed.

Clipping and fixes:

-Clipping has been added to the boxes and wood in saw house to make getting stuck on them harder.

-Clipping has been adjusted to handle the new porch and door in valley.

-A new small health and ammo kit has been put under each patio on flank.

-A new ramp has been added in valley to help scouts roll out onto roofs without going to the point.

B11a
Change log:

-Art passing has begun and the two main buildings have been changed to their art passed versions.

-Slight changes in clipping have been made based on this to ensure game play is the same even though the building is different.

-The towers and sheds on mid have been changed to reflect the new color scheme for each side.

-The point has been slightly changed cosmetically.​

B11
Change log:

-The side areas on the point have been changed to include a different way to get into the flank from the left. It is now an outdoor staircase instead. This removes the roof that used to be used to spam the other roof while being entirely safe.

-Lights have also been adjusted.

-Skybox was fixed to no longer allow players to sit on top of it.​

-Reverted flanks back into not having see through walls.

-Fixed missing area under left transition.​

Change In Holds - B10
Let me out, LET ME OUT!

The forward holds have been looked over due to issue I saw in matches were they were held. It seemed impossible for teams to push out was the hold was in place and I didn't like it, nor did the players. Thus this version makes it easier for teams to bust out.

B10
Change log:

-The respawn times for defenders have been increased by 1 second in the map logic which therefore means that instead of 8 seconds to 16 it will be 9 to 18. This is to make it more punishing for defenders to lose a player during team fights and holds.

-The left transition exit has been changed to move out farther to the left were the stairs are. The stairs on the left have been changed for this reason and now no longer have the box and is easier to walk up on.

-The left transition now also has a window in place of the old door where the team that owns it can see through, but the enemy can not. This is to provide vision for attackers without putting them at risk or giving info to defending teams.

-The wood pile in mid transition has been changed to a ledge that still requires a crouch jump, but is less likely to get hung up on.

-Right side transition has had its box jump replaced with a staircase to make breaking or rolling out that way faster.

-The house on point now has a see through wall that allows you to see into flank from valley, and vice versa.

-A fence was move closer to crane tower in order to block sniper sight lines created by the new transition exit.

-Texture changes and slight detail work has been added.

-Removed saw because of issues...
