A lot of times this post is just a repeat of the Overview, so I will instead use this post to list all the spawns and other tat for mission makers, since I forgot to list a .txt file for it

//Spawns
spawnbot
spawnbot_mission_sniper
spawnbot_flank

/Relays
wave_start_relay //Just turns off bomb markers
wave_start_relay_endurance // Adds return timer on bomb
wave_finished_relay // Calls new bombpath when called, often when wave ends
bombpath_straight_relay //Force the map to pick a bombpath that goes straight (Use InitWaveOutput with this and don't have wave_finished_relay)
bombpath_zz_relay //Force the map to pick a bombpath that zigzags (Use InitWaveOutput with this and don't have wave_finished_relay)
bomb_relay // Adds a second bomb when Triggered, use FirstSpawnOutput or LastSpawnOutput with this
boss_spawn_relay //Plays a sound when the Tank spawns
boss_dead_relay //Plays a sound when the Tank dies
boss_deploy_relay //Blows up the hatch and ends the wave when Triggered, Tank needs this to do its thing

//Tank Starting Node
tank_path_1

//Nav_prefer routes
flank_left
flank_right
flank_upperleft
Here's a nice picture to illustrate how those routes go.

I haven't actually played the map but the layout seems good. There's a bunch of errors in the console you might wanna fix.

Also I didn't understand why you haven't opened up that one building, it'd really help with the flow.

I haven't had folks give a line drawing earlier but I presume the above thing intends the black lines as a connecting area between mid and that left-side doorway?

  • Moved some item kits that were in front of the new doorway
  • Adjusted Navigation Mesh at the edges of the front to attempt to fix a case where money could fly into the spawn if a Robot died in the air
  • Forgot to mention from previous version:
    • Relaxed nav_avoid restrictions at the front to let the nav_prefers there actually work

  • Fixed a clipping mistake near a fence at the middle area
  • Toned down the amount of collision-using snow particles
  • Added a relay that lets you spawn a 2nd bomb (uses 35sec timer)
    • relay is called bomb_relay because I'm lazy, use First or LastSpawnOutput to call it

Yes, all of the materials contained in the download were added to my TF2 before I checked the map, there are still missing materials in the HUD.
