My only complaint would be on the Italian flags, seems a bit of an unnecessary reinforcement… don't start putting them everywhere, as we are not nationalists, you'd be better off with football flags, Milan, Inter, Juventus or since the area maybe Fiorentina. Peace flags used to be more common than national flags.

I'll try to keep it to one nationalist household for the map. The flag was added to catch the player's eye and bring attention that there is another path.

looks very good apart from the exploded wall and dead model. Please no do this.

Quote from Pampers

Those debris meshes were used in hl2 and are literally over 10 years old now and looks like garbage. Gogo replace!

Looks I'll have to relocate Bob and his mess else where. Poor Bob.

Hey there,

absolutely love the map! I just love it! Found a weird bug on bombsite A (between the two barrels and the crate) - it's probz the same as on de_dust2 (on B).

If anyone is wondering, there's a good chance @Upperdawg has suffered a grizzly space related death by now.

Damn space bears.

Quote from Upperdawg

‌@jackophant Actually has a good point. Thinking about it the name of my map, de_shipment, makes me want to facepalm myself to the seventh moon of Jupiter.. :XD:

Let's see some screenshots

If anyone is wondering Himilia is the 7th moon of Jupiter. It is fairly small, rocky and shaped like a potato. It was found on December 3, 1904 by C. D. Perrine, who named it after one of Zeus' many maidens.

For anyone wondering how far Upperdawg facepalmed himself, it would be about 588 million kilometers or 365 million miles.

Your map is very complicated and confusing. I recommend trying to simplify the layout or changing the name to de_Picasso.

I see de_nerone took the June 16th spot. Could I get de_shipyard to changed to June 21, please? Or do you want me to submit another form response?

That has been done. You still need to change your download link, as it is not public.

Quote from hamilton5

could you check this in game with map_showspawnpoints ?

You could do that but it would require me to search the map for any misplaced spawns also. When I load up the map I turn on sv_cheats 1, mp_warmup_pausetimer 99, bot_stop 1, bot_quota 40. I will then look at the mini map to see if there are any misplaced spawns and buy an item from spawn. I then repeat this for the other side. If you map looks trust worthy I will leave here, and not fly around the map looking for deathpits, staircase bomb sites, freak brush work, and other oddities.

Spoiler for anyone trying to solve the maze

Quote from VIOLATION

I do have 10 and 10 on each side. That comment came off the list with the update I gave so not sure what was wrong the first time. Yours being the longest post I attempted to fix as many as the peek spots and crate issues as possible and pretty much everything you posted so it should be good at least in those spots.

You may have 10 spawns on each side but only 8 work on CT side and 9 on T side.

Ignore shitty arches for now, will update later

Calling de_arches shitty, bro?

My job is going to get a whole lot more busy with all these contest maps to check

This makes my RC-1 look like a toy! What does the rest of your setup look like?

Quote from AkatsukiUK

Annoyingly the solution I had was to use the bomb brush tool to block off the bomb rolling away into the water. Sadly the brush also stops bullets, which would mean you would not be able to shoot through the railings anymore.

Don't use the block bomb brush for this, instead use a trigger texture in the water with trigger_bomb_reset. This will return the bomb to where it was before being dropped. You can also use the tools/toolsclip to block players, bots and bombs from reaching areas.

I would also move the ladder to this wall, as it will help to guide players and make climbing the ladder easier. You can also add a pallet leaning against the wall. This will allow players to fall onto it, preventing any fall damage (de_nuke uses this mechanic also). I would also put a player clip above the trim, to stop players breaking their feet on it.

Messing around with HL2 assets.

Reminds me of the Alan Wake games.

Your bsp is corrupt, try recompiling the map again and post the new link

Can't wait for this playtest!

Quote from Vaya

I love the layout of this map. you might want to nerf the boost in mid though. There was one point I had like 3 people jump scouting at me

Happy to hear that, and yes the boost into mid is going to be nerfed.

Quote from Parkcityfan

Thanks for the feed back! Unfortunately the first link doesn't work.

Also if anyone has suggestions for how to improve A long for Cts, I would love to hear them.

A lot has changed since the last update! After getting feedback to ditch the dust theme, we went through three theme before we found one that worked.
