AS-Xenon

Hi again,

as I told you I started working on a new AS map designed for LDG which means there is definatly going to be at least 1 Vehicle in it (maybe more). As a result from the Favorite AS-Map topic I see that the people who voted/replied prefer a classic Assault map with 0-1 Vehicles as support throughout most of the Map. The classic parts have to be skillful and not a complete mess of spam. Ill take that advice for the Map for sure but I would also like to know which Gameplay elements you would like to see in an Assault map. Traps like Junkyard, optional shortcuts like Hera or even something new? I already have a cool movement idea which Ive never seen before and which I wanted to use in a DM map some years ago (other than the standard liftjumps or slopedodges) but that never happened since I didnt touch the Ued from 2007-2013. Anyway, tell me what you would like to see

This is how the Map is going to look. AS-Glacier/DM-Reconstruct/DM-Sateca/DM-1on1-Incuvasion Mix for the Textures and Meshes, an orange/blue lighting for the interior like in Incuvasion and a greenish/blue lighting for the exterior like in Sateca. Like? Dont like? Are 3 colors too much since the common combo is 2 colors?

Optional objectives are nice and add flavour. The first bridge on Glacier, the Hellbender on Damnation (previously a Goliath), the weapon cache on Convoy etc. If you could find a sensible place to put a few of these without making them so linear that you always get them anyway, it would be great.

I can't really comment on the colours/texture set as I don't care for it. As long as the gameplay is good..

I appreciate the theme may be a dull industrial environment but it looks a bit bland.

Looks good so far in my opinion.

If the map requires you to place a vehicle at a certain objective, then I would really like to have the possibility to destroy the vehicle by using traps as in junkyard. Maybe 2-3 different routes to do so, with one going straight through the defenders and the other two having traps to either kill the vehicle or delay it for quite a bit so you can deal some damage to it.

How about some kind of vehicle elevator, that brings the vehicle from a lower position to one a little bit higher by changing the gravity (if thats possible)? A possible trap could be to change the gravity for a short period, which gives defenders time to deal some damage to it.

For now I dont think Ill make an objective that requires to place a vehicle at a certain spot but I can implement a few traps anyway that wll destroy the supporting vehicle.

About the gravity, Im afraid that doesnt work. As soon as the gravity becomes positive (-950 is default) you will autmatically get ejected from your vehicle. 0 Is the highest possible which makes Vehicles with wheels float due to the suspension which pushes the vehicle into the air slowly as soon as the gravity changes.
