A flat level isn't that interesting. What purpose does that path in the center serve anyway? It seems rather pointless.
    1. I moved the Red Base up to make things more interesting, don't worry.
    2. I'm going to throw in some trees and shrubbery to mix it up a bit, change the layout and strategies you would normally use.
    3. I'm trying to NOT make the map spawn camping heaven, but still be able to snipe if you are a pretty good shot.
    4. There are plenty of hills and such, mad dashes through areas clear of trees, not to mention a pretty good Warthog part.
    5. The caves are unaccessible to Warthogs, so they have to run the vehicle part, the main part of the map. That part CAN be done reasonably fast on foot, however.
    I seem to be talking like I have the model finished; I have the skeleton working in Max, it CAN go ingame, since I have the basic map's model finished, but not smoothed or H2V quality yet.

    I am also working on a special script that varies the map depending on a number of factors, such as what gametype it is.
    For instance, if you play Slayer, the weapons spawn in a different place, the scenery is layed out differently, and it changes the gametype dramatically from, say CTF.
    KOTH might have a giant area devoid of trees where the hill is, making the hill very dangerous.
    To begin it, you would have to have devmode on and type in the console "wake CTF" or something.
