Koth_One a23

Its been a long time since the last update, mostly because my schedule has gotten crazy with work and school. Updates will continue to come, but dont expect them too frequently.

Changelog
Changed the side building for a much stubbier one and modified the patio area
changed the small health packs in the garages at point to medium ones
added a medium ammo pack at the patio area
moved the health in the window hall to the window
moved the health outside servers to inside servers
added a sight blocker/geo to the top of servers

Been a while, but we're back with another update!
+Map is beginning to get its identity solidified
+changed some hallways/corridors near point to be less corridor-y
-removed/closed off some doorways and windows to encourage different routes to be taken
-Swapped the positions of the large cover on point

Major change up for a21, map has been changed from mirror to rotation symmetry, and an additional route has been added from the large geo building to the area near where ramp used to be around the outside of the building.

Major tweaking of building size and placement to cut long problem sightlines, soundscapes added! Most doorways have been widened significantly to make the map less chokey overall.

trying to give the map more of an identity this update as well as make buildings more distinct from eachother

+texturing/small amounts of detailing
+the glass walls at mid and the window in the geo building are now one way
+building from geo to ramp is now longer, and as a consequence ramp is now shorter
+Pillars have been added in window room and geo to block sightlines
+diagonal wall added to window room building to make jumping around it easier
