 :-[ To MiA gamers,

This one is a simple map with an octagon platform. Hope you find it fun. Here's the link -- .

P.S. I changed a few things - terrain heights at bottom of ladders. Link up top is revised link.

P.S.S. Made a little change on the map again. The link above has been changed.

Nice for single player.  You do realize, because all the spawns are visible it would not work in multi with more than 2 players at least.

Thanks for taking the time man!

I did not know that! Really. How can I fix it?

Somehow you need to hide at least some zombieVolumes - so zombies will always spawn out of player view.  I had that problem with happyHour (with large numbers of players scattered all over the map -all in sight of zombieVolumes- no zombies came) which is why I made zombieVolumes at either end of the road and hid them with antiportals). Sorry, I'm not entirely sure about spawning behind antiportals but seems to work with HH...  I tried it with airport1 but that seemed to fail.

So hiding them in Octagon, tough one...  Easiest way probably, make a building above (unreachable by players) with a hole in the bottom so zs can drop down.  Then maybe elevators from platform to ground, for players/zombies.  I'm thinking strategy here, so zombies spawn from above forcing players groundward - occasional noob (or me lol) along one of the plats and has to jump.  Or you could make it tougher - buildings on the ground from which zombies spawn.  But the building above would be the fail-safe, which players can never see into, from there zs can always spawn.

Okay. Or I can put walls on the top platform so players won't see zombies spawn.

I tried putting zombie volumes at the bottom but when I do, they only seem to spawn at the bottom! And sometimes they don't climb the ladders.

I'll just put the walls up. And see what happens. Thanks for your helpful infos!
