KotH Highville A9

Berry · Feb 10, 2015

Cliffside KotH map, planned theme to be a mix of alpine and maritime. (maripine/altime). As of A5 the control point now moves up and down the map to make the other portion less obscure (and for fun!)

I'm not 100% certain that makes geological sense. I mean, that's a cliff in your picture. Cliff + Harbour isn't a thing.

what doesn't make sense

RubbishyUser · Feb 10, 2015

Maritime + cliff. A maritime town exists because you can launch boats from it; If you're high up enough that there's a cliff between you and the water then no boats. Right?

I mean just the maritime theme in general, not like being a seaside town but just some elements of it mixed in (aka the seaside theme in general).

And how can we be sure it's not just that the tide's out and we're on the other side of the port?

That's actually a good idea for a map...

hm.

- Increased respawn wave time from 6 to 7.5 to compensate for map size a little bit
- Added a wall to the cliff beside the new slope to block bad sightline
- Clipped barbed wire fences
- Added some barriers at the very back along the cliff to prevent from airblast-happy pyros some

I enjoy this map when we play it. The only issue I see right now is that I never want to go down to the building near the cliff, even with the large healthkit there.

You should've called it Danktown

I find myself and others there quite a bit, it could just be class / playstyle? I'm not too sure. The main idea I have at the moment for that area is health & ammo advantage (forcing the top team off the highground if they can't recover fast enough at the top which just has a small health and medium ammos [which I might reduce to smalls too]).

Berry · Feb 12, 2015

A3

- Added a small sniper shack at the back sides of the cliffside for snipers
- Reduced full health in cliff building to a medium
- Reduced medium health on log at cliff to a small
- Reduced medium ammo packs in the cliffside building to small ammopacks
- Made slide doors at spawns windowed doors

He could always add a dock at the bottom of the cliff under a func_hurt trigger.

The sign everyone seems to be basing the not making geological sense on is probably going to be temporary. As it's an exports/shipping sign if I do keep it or something similar I'm going to put some trains around instead most likely, and have a dock nearby in the skybox.

A4 - Feb 20th 2015

- Fixed a rock asymmetry
- Added a new route around the from the side of spawn to the back shed added in A3 beside the cliff
- Flipped the health packs at the cliff to a small on the log and a medium on the platform
- Added a wooden plank leading up to the log at the cliff from the sewer path
- Removed some custom content temporarily to lower filesize

What of water is sometimes high enough?

I think you guys are taking my theme spitballing a little too seriously. When I say "maritime" I don't mean it in it's literal term, I mean it as "I'm going to use some things from the maritime theme in this map".
