This map seems to still have pathing issues with spiders. There were a couple times when I tried to Scale a vert wall that they did a couple circles before climbing.

valkires have pathing issues as well, wehn trying to fly right at the border in the rough hills (trying to sneak behind enemy lines)

The cliffs are hackisly off limits. There is some incomplete code that blocks a few ways of moving onto the hills which apparently just causes confusion.

Off limits cliffs is annoying. Maybe this map needs a zero-k version.

The typemap applies to all units, which is why is still applied to this map in ZK. The mountains around the edge are not passable even by spiders.

There is a setting to disable all typemaps. But I think the maps includes a gadget to prevent some methods of units getting there. For example you may not be able to give a move command but you can give an area reclaim command.

The cliffs have never bothered me. But yeah, it's not just typemaps.

I think east vs west boxes for this map would be more interesting than the current corner boxes.

I think north vs south boxes for this map would be more interesting than the current corner boxes.

North vs south wouldn't change it too much, it'd still be hill vs hill.

East vs west would make both the north and south hill contested areas, while the middle flatland would still be where the main battle happened.

i imagine northeast vs southwest interesting. both hills in about the same range for both teams. expecting intense hill battles there, while center land is open and can fall in a blink if unguarded. intense pressure everywhere. pointing from a won hill to center is equally important, and after all much metal is in hills.

That could work nicely as well.

Skasi your box design is always to minimise distance between opposing players while reducing team coherence. It just ends up being a lot of parallel 1v1s.

GoogleFrog, the idea is minimizing the effect of porc walls that reach from one end of the map to the other. With 10v10s being common this is starting to become really boring. Such games rely too much on heavies and long-range units and with economy in the rear being much more secure end up being fps-killers more often than not.

Anyway, mojjj's suggestion sounds better. Fronts will still be wide, spiders and kbots will have more terrain to use to their advantage and metal spots seem to not care much.

I like it best when you get a square map and start in the corners. Then you have the widest front, room for flanking and team coherence.

I agree with Skasi. Heck, even east vs west would be better than the current boxes.
+0 / -0
How about someone adds more sensitive color + new boxes (n vs s) from Skasi?
