CnC Race Map problem

Problem: The current CnC Map on server is Tiberian sun. This map has a flaw with the helicopter where if its used to score it doesn't teleport the player thus placing player in limbo forcing them to either spec and rejoin or reconnect. The typical response to this happening is rage quitting or accidental tb abuse.

Side note: I'm aware that due to popular demand that we have at least 1 cnc map in the race map list. (I don't like this but I understand grudgingly)

Solutions:
a. Someone fix this with either fixing the issue or placing a blocking volume to prevent helicopter from scoring.. ( I refuse to fix this cause its my right.)
b. Remove the map.
c. A different CnC map or similar style be put in rotation instead of this one. I know of the following: Mario , Red Alert, Fender benders and Fort sport. Note: I wouldn't mind adapting fender benders or fort sport into race mod. They are so much better then the current cnc maps.

Thoughts?

Helicopters should be prevented from scoring in any fix.

I'd like to see the re-addition of Red Alert (I asked why this was removed and the answer I got was quite unsatisfactory)

I'd also like to see all aerial vehicles made prison and prohibited from scoring completely.

Finally, I'd like to see invisible walls placed on Tiberian Sun so you can't drive up the cliffs. This aspect completely ruins any enjoyment of the map as it's almost impossible to defend against people dropping in from them (which is precisely the reason people do it..)

Super finally - add a respawn delay on all heavy vehicles of a few minutes. Tank camp on this map is frustrating when they respawn so quickly.

This. Red Alert is 100 times better than TiberianSun.

Let's dig for Red Alert then... (It's still in the maplist :P )

Well hopefully red alert works out better then TiberianSun. If not we shall try again.
