cp_rum_A3b is released:
Changed the lighting around including the skybox (Yay trainyard!)
Added a second direct path to the back section of blue spawn (the hole on the right next to the ramp above the pipe.)
Shortened the capture time on all points
Moved and added some props on CP B
Did some minor optimization for better preformance
Added a few more directional signs for ease of navigation
The door from red spawn to CP B now locks after CP B is captured by Blu
Fixed a few messy brushes.
Note: Still messing with the light on CP C. I understand it's a bit odd looking right now, I'll probably change a few more times.

I really enjoyed this map
Looking forward for the final version!!
Good luck
I'm happy you enjoyed it
Hopefully after it gets playtested I can move forward with the design a bit more.

Gameday bump:
Things to change (that have already been changed, actually, as of this writing):
Add a way to flank A as offense (done.)
Shorten the capture time of A and C (done.)
Enlarge the area around C (done.)
Make the second path to B for red more obvious (halfway done)
Flame had something else to add. But I couldn't hear him.
Just so everyone knows, the one way door to A was not meant to be red only. I had accidentally team filtered it, so it can be used for more effective flanking now.

Triple post ftw.
Bump for the playtest today. Things to change:
C is too easy to defend. Have a plan to fix it already.
The fast way to B for offense should be on the lower floor or farther away from the CP.
A is captured far too quickly. Will raise capture time significantly. Perhaps make it a bit more of an epic battle.
I heard some complaints about stairs but I'm playing at my sister's house and the speakers make it difficult to understand people, so I couldn't get what most of you were saying about it.
Flame mentioned a gap that he fell through, I think he meant the one directly after you exit the higher Blu spawn exit on the right.
Some ramps are too thin, I think. Will widen them for ease of use.
I'm sure there's more, just couldn't hear everything. I'd love someone greatly to fill me in on what I missed.
Anyway, been doing a little detailing while bored.

Updated to cp_rum_a4a:
Lowered CP A's Capture Time
Raised CP C's Capture Time
Moved Red's fast path to CP B farther from the CP
Widened and rotated the direct ramp to CP B
Defenders:
Attackers:
Modified the paths to and from CP A a bit to give a small advantage to the attackers
Textured some of CP C for the hell of it
The gates to Red's fast path close after CP B is captured but the door stays unlocked
Other small things I can't remember

The final point detailing is a bit odd.. It looks like it was built to be indoors but it's not. It's like it was intentionally fenced off with concrete walls. It's a little nitpick but there you go .
Also I hope that B point is a bit different. I remember it from before and DAMNN that was a whoever-gets-control-first-wins cap.

Yeah, C will make more sense later. I textured it without really making it the kind of style I plan on making the map and haven't bothered changing it.
Either way, B is a lot different and significantly improved.

Hey I think the layout (in general) was just too cramped and it felt like there were too many useless parts of the map. I have never seen CP B (both when defending and attacking - yes we DID play some serious rounds before going all crazy), meaning that it's too easy to cap. A however, was very hard.
I feel like the start of the map is there, but it's a bit of a mess and maze, at the moment. Making the layout more straightforward would help; like less corridors, less tiny hallways, less tiny doors. Keep in mind that TF2's scale is bigger than reality.
This is a quote from someone, I believe it was eerieone - he made premuda and cashworks if you wouldn't remember - saying:
"When I create my layout, I make sure there is always enough space to let the famous dumptruck model drive through."
A very useful advice, and it helped me a lot before.

Dumptruck model?
The one from Hydro?
