I needs a layout help
« on: August 12, 2008, 04:37:44 am »
I really like what I have so far: Clicky

However... parts of it just don't seem right. The top route for instance. As well as those giant floating boulders in each base...

Any suggestions about the layout?

Here's some potential layout modifications. COLOR CODED FOR YOUR CONVENIENCE!

Notes: The colliders are just recommendations of places where they could potantially benefit gameplay.

The Ice is just to keep people from potentially camping up there.

The Loop in the New route is because it looks pretty and because backflip could help shrink teh time getting onto the tip route.

The spray stopping stuff may not be nescessary depending on mapsize and gameplay.

Yes, I spelled colliders wrong.

I'm a bit lazy so I can't do screen. I agree with Wraithlike completely.

I would build polygon structure which makes easier to attacker getting flag. I mean adding a poly which makes it easier getting flag from top (for example). I mean you need a poly which allows you to turn around at ground not in air. So remember turning 180 degrees is ugly but it's a lot more comfortable when u do it at ground.

Also bottom way center point should be higher so there wouldn't be so bad spray, law camp.

looks pretty hard to cap... it'd be interesting if the top route had a bridge instead (a wide one, kinda funnelish) and if the flag dropped it'd go all the way down

I'm about ready to add sceneries to this, but is there any lasting... things... that should be fixed?

Looks hard to move through, but I need to do some testing before I can make final statements.  I think those two points at the entrance at the top routes will only make entering it harder.  I'd remove them and round out the area.

Has potential though and if it's good as I think is, good be up for Gather.

I think you should go whit Wraithlike's proposal and make the map longer. Move the spawn part.
