Well, they don't read out func_detail in the 2D view, so I'm gonna guess no.

LITERALLY my map name and idea, minus the Frontline Experience™
Does this mean I have to change now?
no! i will Chang.
its cool
Nah, bro... Izotope had an Idea, you were the first to do something with it... I feel like neither of you needs to change, however... I am doing an Egypt-themed map, but @UKCS-Alias has already made an Egypt-themed MvM map, and yet I'm still doing an Egypt-themed MvM map...
Valve made a halloween themed MvM map. and my first MvM map was halloween aswel.
Its perfectly fine to have multiple maps with the same sort of looks. You dont hear me complain about decoy and coaltown (common desert), or downtown and mannhattan (city), or oilrig and mannworks (facility), yucatan and tropics (mayan), normandy and overlord (invasion).
Similar themes just confirms that people like a theme so much they are willing to make a map in such theme. It doesnt even matter if the quality of the map is excelent (although we prefer that
). Dedication to your work is what can drive you to finish the work. People like variety. If that occasionaly means a lesser quality map, its fine. As long as your map makes players happy that they play it, you have succeeded at mapping (at which point the drive can be to improve and make an even more awesome map).
On the other hand, don't be afraid to do something different just because nobody's done it before.

Haven't posted anything here in while, but now that the skybox is in, Luftangriff is looking much more vast.
There are a few things in these pictures that I've already fixed, such as some floating trees and gaps

I think that black path has a quite large detour compared to the other paths. Even if its not a main path, i think giving the bots an advantage at the spawning position (startin up higher - just like they have 2 of these in decoy) could be a good addition. I do like the height variation and the map itself seems quite logical from the overview.
I didn't consider it because i've been thinking of making designated routes for each wave (so no random paths for any given wave in a mission), which would make balancing the different routes against each other obsolete.
But now that you mentioned it, i'm convinced that an extra exit as shown below would make a lot of sense. Will add!
