Couldn't help myself from texturing the hut in stage 1

The metal sheets are a little too thick.

Cart was hard to keep track of. Second stage cart was completely impossible to defend in the pit as engi: Enemy always has the height advantage!

Really? That's a farcry from when I played it. Myself and Toaster were able to keep our sentrys up for ages and ages.

I think when we played it was 8v8. I dont remember any lower

I have a few ideas to make it easier to defend

Like many of the plr maps for the contest, all three stages are, in general, too arena-like. It's small and very open, so there's not much in the way of strategy. When we played today we sorta just ran, got shot from all sides, and shot at people from all sides.

Whether you love or hate plr_pipeline, it's very good at letting you organize and flank the enemy, let engies build bases, etc. It's not just a giant battlefield.

In stage three, the other team's cart is hard to follow, as its often hidden from view.

Okay, i made changes to stage 2. The main complaint was that it was too hard to defend. I lowered the spawn times to avoid spawn camping.

I added this little room with a med ammo kit and a small hp kit in it

2 other things that bothered people were that snipers with normal rifle had trouble, and no direct route out of the pit

Now, hopefully these changes dont cause it to be a stalemate

We playtested this on TF2Newbs.com Payload Server (24). Everyone really seemed to like it although I had 2 versions on the server and I'm not sure which one I ran. I took notes on what everyone said throughout:

-Spy could get in spawn
-Can build in spawn
-Long respawn time? Up to 28 seconds for someone.
-Spy is hard to play because so many pyros and sharp corners
1st stage - confined
2nd stage - open
death cliff was fun
mostly 3-5 ratings

Fun map and we'd definitely playtest this again for you.
