This version has some pretty significant changes and I'm prepared to stay in alpha for a bit longer to iron out the reblocked areas. Some of these changes weren't exactly necessary but I thought they'll make it feel better to play on.

Changes:

• Changed to rotated symmetry
• Lowered light brightnesses a bit
• Moved the brick house forward a bit
• Added some height variation inside the brick house
• Swapped the stairs and choke positions on the main building
• Rearranged rollout areas
• Added a new rollout option to the left which leads to the gravel dump
• Increased gravel dump height
• Temporarily removed 3D skybox
• Added doorway between the gravel dump and the main building
• Removed the flank under point
• Simplified some geometry
• Reduced visleafs
  
• Fixed capture zone decals for people with fps configs (hopefully)
  
• Added a slope to the small hp and ammo under point
• Removed railing on the upper catwalk

This update had a ton of changes:

• Raised the middle section
• Raised the cap into a nipple
• Removed the walls on the catwalks
• Split the catwalks into two separate ones
• Split the main building in two
• Removed the underneath area
• Moved the spawns higher up and a little closer to point
• Moved the primary health and ammo packs further from point

This version is a little bland texture-wise but I was mainly focusing on the level design aspect.
