Because sentry-jumping is a very common occurrence. 
If an Engineer somehow manages to build a level 3 sentry near the point (on a KotH map) and then sentry-jumps onto a palm tree, I feel he deserves it. Haha.

I would swap the teams so that BLU gets the bluish shadow; that's usually how it's done to enhance the team-color association.

Mangy suggested reducing the upper areas, so I may try it in a later version. I'm almost ready for a1, so we'll see what happens. Also, what do you guys think about me putting Tyker's Ivy on the walls to break up the monotony?
I think the Ivy would look cool, give it a shot!
You could also use E Arkhams Khemer textures to help distinguish between red and blu's side.

Some shots of the final CP of my map:
And a now outdated overhead shot (I got rid of the train track):

What do you mean? The distance from mid cp to second cp is 500 units less than granary, and the distance from second cp to final cp is the same as granary.
It looks like the buildings might be smaller and the yards larger though, meaning more sightlines andless fun for people other than sniper. Whilst i cant see much of the area, it looks as if second is in a large, empty yard. And granary is fairly large anyway- it remains fun to play on due to good cover placements, something that looks almost missing here.
hm, you have to run about 600, 700 units to get from the last cover to the cp, i guess this to much, u will get sniperd nearly all the time, and when u get in you'll be alone and a sentry (behind the truck?) will kill you. maybe a tunnel as an alternative way would be good, so that you can reach the point nearly unseen. if u dont want to inplement something like this, u should place many cover

Yeah, I'm well aware of the lack of cover atm. I'm trying to come up with better alternatives than sticking crates and grey blocks everywhere like you see in Granary
If I can't come up with anything soon I'll just stick some brushes for cover until I can.
very early from hammer:
you see that there are 2 ways under construction, the plan is, that u can choose what u want, the short way, direct through the canyon or the way to the lift and over the bridge wich is a bit longer, but not in the canyon.
yeah, sure i use dev, just do a little experiment with the stone texture

You might want to use dev measure textures for that tzwenxd, to make it easier on the eye, also use a prop_static of the heavy model to help you guage scale.

What's with the random bulb on the right in the first screenshot, YM? Looks redundant with all the other lighting in the room.

displacement hills are a quick and easy way of blocking los. they dont have to be massive, just little mounds
