dbs_disposal

[Space Ghost]

This is my first map, I'm not sure if the spawner actually works, or anything.

Players start off on raised platforms, and once the starting countdown reaches 0, the platforms disappear and the players are dropped onto conveyor belts. The conveyor belts go either backwards or forwards only, depending on which you are on (the direction is indicated by arrows on the belt), obviously. On each end of the belts is a pit. If you fall in, you're disposed of (thus the name).

Long story short, if you stand still, you die.

Gotta compile the .vmf file (raw hammer format) with hammer to have a .bsp output. Then we can upload it

I just added the right file download to the OP, I had the wrong one up.

Just played, the map looks promising. I would change the following things tho:

- Lower the nuke spawn. At the moment is hard to keep track of the spawning nukes and the conveyor belts at the same time.
- Start the conveyor belts at a slow speed. As the map time goes by, increase the belt speed (just like the nuke speed increases over time). This will allow people to get familiar with the conveyor belts and gradually make it more difficult as the game progresses.

But other than that, it looks interesting

Added Beta 2 download to the first post and edited the changelog.

Beta 3 added to OP

This map plays well but players get tired of it fast. Everyone agreed that playing with low gravity made it a lot more fun, I can set that with a config so you don't need a new version. Was thinking of adding this for 10 minutes or so w/ 200ish gravity, let me know what you think.

b4 added to OP to get rid of a small plat, low gravity made the map a lot better.
