cp_jam - cp name pending

Hey. Finished a1 of a cp map. Check it out.

Mid:

Second:

Last:

Current problems:
stupidly long hallway between mid and second
sight line from lower to mid
the scaling on last too big
mid too visible

Some of my thoughts:

- Running from spawn to mid, I ran completely past 2nd without even noticing at first.
- The platforms jutting out from the walkways at 2nd are mostly unnecessary and make the point look too messy.
- The health and ammo packs are too frequent and out in the open, especially at mid. The ammo and health are also exclusively in pairs which makes them a little too concentrated. The packs at mid show this most egregiously.
- The platforms above the rocks at mid are a little awkward in their current state.

Made it easier to move around mid and second. Looking for layout feedback.

I wonder: what encouraged you to finally update this map three years later?

Here are my thoughts:

- Last point is too close to the spawn
- Entrances to last shouldn't all be clumped on one side.
- Health and Ammo is too frequent. There's always three or more pairs of medium packs in the immediate vicinity. (For example, second has 5 with 2 more not much farther away)

• both red mid and second spawn triggers are now fixed
• “respawn visualizer scuffed” do you mean just visually off center? That’s fine for now
• Capping always increases the remaining time to 10 minutes. I thought this was too long, but that seems in line with other cp maps. Keeping it the same at 10 minutes.
• Added subtle low ground platforms to mid and second
• Last point:
  • Moderate adjustments to sizing and pathing around point and low entrance
  • Added large arch to lower sight lines and make high ground more contestable
  • Added props for more interesting fighting and slight visual blocking

Here´s a name idea: Overpass

Was thinking of making it asian themed, but then again the bridge area has a desert appearance. cp_underpass, cp_asianReference, cp_zion, cp_kolob, cp_mesa. Yeah idk. I want to experiment with textures first.

What about Karakum, its the name of a desert located in asia?
