Title: Kmasht's Sanctuary Map
Post by: Kmasht on March 10, 2014, 09:29:21 PM

I'm not sure on the name but I called it roadside. You can change it if you don't like it. Please criticize on it so I can improve it. Its almost finished!

Where exactly is the pathway, cause you know you can't turn left or right, it's 2d.

Its next to the pathway on the grass, where you spawn.

Preview of what the map looks like in-game: (also wanna show off some new HUD info)

I like the map so far; here are a few pointers:

• The wall in the background could be a bit taller and feature some more details (cracks, windows, ...)
• The map is missing a "sanctuary", a place where players should regroup when the wave starts.

I have added building in the background. The end one collapsed. I have also made the wall higher and added the "Sanctuary".

Hi! The background looks a lot better!

The sanctuary area is a good start but there are still some issues:

• The walkway still needs to be completely flat. Reasons:
  
  • Our NPCs use nav_generated nodes to find their way to the player. Uneven terrain & obstacles will sometimes break the connections between walk-able paths and cause NPCs to get stuck.
  • Terrain like the rocky surface or entities like the barrier cause the player's position to be misaligned in reference to the NPCs (if your Y axis is no longer the same as the NPCs Y axis, your bullets will always miss)
• Try giving the whole map a "darker" (think post-apocalyptic) feel. After all, it is a survival gamemode.

Quick update, i have improved the sanctuary and am working on the foreground darker, post-apocalyptic,  theme.

Looks a lot better already! Just a quick note; make sure the path to the sanctuary (the little gap you left) is wide enough. You can easily add a bit more space to each side.

Other than that, loving it!
