Still working on koth_rising, making major changes in layout:
Extended the courtyard between spawn and mid and added a room inside the sewers
A room that connects both the sewer room and that back room that didn't have much use in the gameday (as far as I know)
Still working on mid, I got nothing to put in that empty area...
Also placing 'functional' security cameras here and there. I'll fix the light later...
What sprite should I use there? I didn't think it would literally look like that in-game (thought the black thing was transparency, but it turns out it's not)
It kinda feels like a changelog

Just use an env_lightglow with a red color.Still working on koth_rising, making major changes in layout:

Dont use a lightglow. That is too expensive for something that should be as simple as a sprite. Instead try diffirent 'Render Modes' on the sprite. Glow for example does remove the black background in hammer aswel. So that might also work ingame.
Maritime-ish (maybe).
just please keep some kind of high wall where the dark cliff is here - its part of my rollout

The wall will stay, just a tad shorter and more rocky.
that only works if he would name it achievement_idle_payload.
But i for a part can understand the issue, in most cases you want at least 2 exits from a spawn to reduce spawnkilling. Having just 1 exit wont work. And the way to handle it is to actualy build multiple exit options inside the spawnroom. When the exit doesnt suit the map, close that one off. Idealy you would have an exit to the left or right, so 2 doorways in that direction is where to start. But other than that, use your imagination as i cant help any further than that.

Actually, depending on what sorta spawn it is, then 1 exit could work. Look at frontier, RED's forward spawn has only 1 exit, but near the point, basically inviting in spawncamping. Similarly, look at Badwater's shortcut that closes later on- it can basically count as a spawn exit, since it requires the enemy to push through it in order to seal off a heavy flow of REDs
Is that really payload map?lf partner for pl map, anyone interested? I want to make something new but I need infusions of creativity so if anyone wants to work together that'd be slick
