its staying as a double RT, but the room will be 100% different from what it is now
Great, double RT is what this map needs, but I hope that it won't look like summit with double RT instead of TP. That big room is very nice, but it need some changes. Anyway good job, I hope update will be ready for this Sunday tests

Hey Loki! I'm getting back into stuff. Just saw the screens of the one detailed room. Looks awesome so far! Looking forward to playing this some time in the near future(hopefully). Keep it up!

It's even better when you run around on it. Just... don't touch the walls... you can fall through them sometimes.
wow, just playtested the map on scc and it definitely looks like we have another official map here in the making. even tho it is alpha 0.3/0.4? it is already fun to play and if i had a server, i definitely would add this map to the rotation. just love the setting of nature taking it all back. and the unfinnished state is making the effect even stronger, from goin to grey box to these zones of "infinite" detail.
and one more thing: i hope we still will be able to see the ready room from the map in the final version. this sort of continuity and attention to detail is what i love.
Invisible thing here, it's on the other side of the room too, same spotyou can climb on to of this thing in Garage, it's a mix of rumble, tree, and concrete I guess, anyway, you can climb your way up there and just hide behid leaves
your using somthing that makes the plants there invisible.
On the first screenshot ?
What could it be ? I know I play on low settings and shit (NS2 and NS2+ options), for competitive purposes. But there's an option that gets rid of the plants that are there ?
Weird

I wish there was a different way to make something as valuable as a Double Res Node, but not so obvious.
I'm shooting in the dark here, but I think it would be cool to have a special res node that has big pay off or lump sum, but once you capture it, it exhausts that node, then pops up randomly someplace else. (maybe the node itself doesn't disappear, just it's "resources". Therefore overall map control becomes more important than a specific room control.
I imagine it sort of like "crates" from C&C, but instead of just picking it up, you gotta build an extractor on it, Loki knows what I'm talking about.
It doesn't need to be restricted to just this map either! Again, I don't know if this is even doable, but it would really shake up gameplay and make it more dynamic.

Or I've even thought it'd be great if there was a special "half" node. Double rez sometimes seems too powerful, but a single rez node wouldn't be powerful enough.

Sortof OT, but I saw it on this thread. I've never seen that before.
You broke something, well done. Blame @Derelict

Atmospheric processing
Blocked the long LOS with some crates for now
Geothermal
lowered the large pipes in this room for now
Layout as of version 0.4
Change log
Western entrance
New los blocking scaffolding
New vent routes
Atmospheric seeding to some corridor
Geothermal to road with no name
Tree to "atmospheric seeding"
Geothermal has been somewhat updated with a new geo layout
Nursery has had a change to its geo layout
Garage has had the lighting tweaked and improved occlusion geo to boost fps

its a comp mod it removes certain plants for more fps (I think). What should be there is bamboo. I think ns2+ removes these
