Circle Of Death - Extended:

Regarding to the conversion of my maps for Quake Live, I made an extended version of 13circle "Circle Of Death". In order to fix some of the issues from the original map.

There is now a way up from the lower "dead end" in the flagroom. A jump pad leading thru an iris-door, up to a gallery style area behind the flag. See screenshots 3 - 5.

Screenshots:

Tell me if you find some Bugs or have some further suggestions.

I'm also tending atm to add an LG. Maybe replacing the GL on the balcony and put the GL back into the new gallery area:
What do you think?

A QL version will follow when the map is final.

Cool that you are looking at this one again! :)

I'm gonna check it out tomorrow.

Edit:
- I think the iris door connection is a good addition, you might want to consider enlarging the trigger for the door to open when somebody is standing close to it on top of the jumppad
- regarding the weapon changes, if you want to put in LG I would put it where PG is now so it is not in such a dominant and open position - I imagine a defender who always has a LG will be very hard to overcome in the rather open flagroom
- I wouldn't mind some sort of trickjump from the balcony area to the sides of the flag to the upper balcony where GL is on

Thanks for testing cityy!

>>iris door trigger:
The iris door is a little bit tricky. There is atm no trigger_multiple for opening. Only the automatic generated one (for doors without a trigger) because I coundn't manage to let the door stay open while you are still standing in the trigger. I think it has something to do with some of the diagonal angles of the door parts.

If you want to test around with a trigger, I made a little sample map file with the iris door area only: http://sst13.de/dev/13circle_iris-door.zip
You also need Beta1 for textures & shaders. (add "13circle_xt" to your shaderlist)
I'm using the "silence doors hack", so the big black room under the jump pad exist only to save the spectator from automatic teleporting into the void. :rolleyes: :D

>>weapon changes:
I'm gonna test your suggested weapon setup in the next beta. (LG => lower corridor; PG => flagroom balkony; GL => in front of iris door)

>>trickjump from gallery to balkony:
I had installed a small fixture on the pipes. But jumping from the "tilted" surface onto the fixture is a pain in the ass. I ended up making rocket jumps instead. :D

Iirc if the wait on the trigger_multiple is slightly lower than that of the door, it will keep it open indefinitely. Obviously the wait needs to be longer than the time it takes for the door to open completely, or it will re-trigger it and start closing instead.

New stuff:

How about more ammo, or is it atm sufficient?
