Hey! I am in the process of writing a python script that can automatically mirror or rotate your maps. It can already fix names, triggers, team numbers, displacements, models, textures, ignore objects on the noCopy layer , and will also build your map with VBSP, VVIS and VRAD if desired.
I tested it with several KOTH maps, and it worked fine. However, I get strange results for payload maps. I copied the payload template from the gametype library, deleted half of it, centered it, and marked objects that should not be copied. Both teams can push the cart. However, only the RED cart shows up on the HUD. BLU can cap the final point, but will not win. RED can win like normal. I have spent several hours trying to find the mistake, fixed many minor mistakes, searched the internet for any tutorials on payload race, (They don't seem to exist) but those two major issues remain.
The map file is attached below. (You can open and edit it in hammer, it's indistinguishable from a hammer-generated VMF) I expect there to be a simple mistake, like a trigger misconfigured or a a variable having the wrong formatting.
(here I just capped the point but did not win)
