Hello everyone, as you may or might not now, I'm now in charge of updating summit. FMPONE was doing this before, but now I'm doing the updates so he's free to work on Veil. Psykoman (the original author) stopped updating the map himself because he couldn't keep up with the updating since he's on a slow internet connection.

Anyways, let me know about bugs/annoyances on the map here, I also check the annotations, so if you find issues with the map please annotate them.

To annotate, type in console: "displayannotations" to see if something's been annotated already, if it hasn't, then type in console "annotate Stuck here as a gorge", for example.

By the way, I can't fix egg spawns (stuck points respawning), that's a code issue.

    You can put cysts in the Crevice vent and then immediately build towards Atrium as a commander (though this doesn't work the other way around). Not sure if this is a serious bug that needs to be fixed.

    I also annotated a spot in the CL-FC-Vent where you can put buildings.

    I just want the vent in atrium unblocked.

    There's a spot in Crossroads where a marine can become stuck.

    I also find it impossible to jump onto the large container in the picture. Is that intended?


    There are a lot of props and chamfers in the vents, that can hide mines.

    Do you see the mines?

    Ah! They're inside the chamfers! :P

    This stuck issue is fixed. Since I didn't design the map I don't really know, but I'm assuming you shouldn't be able to climb on top of the large container otherwise it would have been made easier.

    As for this, I'm afraid I can't fix this. The collisions on those props are disabled because otherwise you'd have tons of snag issues in the vents...

    I completely blocked it to avoid confusion for the next version, actually. Any particular reasons to unblock the vent?

    I somehow even like being able to place cysts in there, but bigger buildings make it look buggy.

    There is actually another issue with those props, as you can partly see through them as a marine. <img src="https://pickhost.eu/images/0005/1963/2012-04-30_00001.jpg" border="0" class="linked-image" />

    Thanks for the video, I'll try to fix that :)

    The vent thing is "normal" I guess, in the glass hallway vent for your head is inside the pipes as a marine, for example :P

    I found a minor visual issue that can be fixed rather quickly:

    The tech point in Sub Access is slightly too low, so there is z-fighting with the floor (only visible when it is unoccupied).

    Can't fix the reactor, that's a prop issue. Fixed the other 2 issues for 209.

    That is actually a lighting issue, you have to make a hole for the tech points so there's never z-fighting.

    Perhaps you could pass it along to one of the devs. They fixed some other collision issues with the pipes near the vent a while ago.

    The prop is called: summit_reactor_main.model

    You can see the physics box in the viewer:

    I actually sent them a document listing every prop I've seen with collision/hitbox issues of varied kinds a while ago (including that prop), there's entire sets wrong, and some very puzzling problems in some of them. If they implement a bullet-blocking player clipping group in the editor I'll do the reactor collisions by hand and solve the issue myself, but I'm waiting on that too.

    There is an invisible wall at the west entrance to sub. I'm not sure if it's to do with the pipes there or if it's something else as well because it doesn't look like the pipes physics box is big enough to stretch down to there. If you shoot you can see bullets bouncing off mid air.

    Screenshots:

    Here is the pipe prop near that area - summit_pipes_01_sm_45.model:

    Bump, this bug is still in the map...it's not the pipe prop collisions. Crouch down at just in front of the blue screen there and try and shot towards the tech point, your bullets hit an invisible wall right in front of you.

    I can't really fix it, as it's a prop issue, I can forward it to someone else that might be able to.

    I did take a look at it and it makes no sense to me :\

    In DC, the ramp going down towards vent, I got stuck on the wall on the right side at the bottom of the ramp by the wall. Jumped down from the area above and stuck good :D

    hello my name is Michael and I am an avid NS player.

    I have noticed that in flight control entrance leading from computer lab (right next to the resource tower) on ns2_summit that there is a problem with the fencing in the doorway. There is enough room for a skulk to gorge on top of the fencing and then throw continuous bile bombs down onto the power node in flight control and no way for a marine without a jet pack and/or grenade launcher to stop him. This ruined my experience of playing on the map and I would like to get this <b>exploit</b> fixed before it ruins other peoples impressions of the map.

    So what i have noticed.

    The sides of the fencing; you can shoot through either way
    the tops of the fencing; you can only shoot down through it, not upwards through it. Therefor the gorge can actually spit/bile us through it and we cannot shoot him at all without grenades or jet packs.

    Can you please look at redesigning this or changing the clipping of the top fencing

    Sincere regards,

    Avid NS2 player.

    if you don't know what i'm talking about please add me to steam mick_05
