Short and sweet flight with your frozen friend.
It's as short as it is because I've noticed that when maps with new concepts are made too long or difficult, people usually dislike them. Obviously, if the map is otherwise worth releasing, but too short or easy, I can change it.

Edit: My gifs on this thread are broken, thanks to Dropbox's new brilliant /s change that removed the public folderbut I'm a lazy slob and wont fix them
Next logical step after teelicopters? Planes.

Then you'd be mistaken. A random fella with 350 ping did this today in my server. Well to be fair he had the nerves of steel but he dun did it.

Amazing, I think this is the first "funny" dummy map I ever saw .___.

Found this awfully simple bug. Fixed it
but I wont upload a fixed version until at least 1 person has finished testing to avoid confusion between versions. ^^

Just upload your newest version in a new post, it's not confusing at all.

You should disable Deepfly by writing sv_deepfly 0 in server_settings.
You also can remove switch 3 at the beginning because Gate 3 is always closed.
Nice map idea

, but i would add some more parts its really short.

- Suggestion: You can remove Switch 2 deactivating Laser by using switch_open 2 so the laser is deactivated by default. Looks better i think.

Hey thank you for the suggestions and I guess testing, Tropo. ^^
- Added:
Code: Select all
sv_deepfly 0 (I thought this was on by default)
switch_open 2
- removed switch 3 from the beginning
- I'll, at least for now, keep the length as it is, due to the points I made in the original post. ^^

It definitely looks fun, great idea :3
Maybe you should disable /spec to prevent this super-power shoot. But on the other hand, thats useless here, so not important to change this :p
Oh, and with some limitations you can even fly without hooking your dummy, just using shotgun.
But that's even more fun :)
