Its the geomonetary map you know and love but now with more spacey stuff.

Made for xonotc. Quite a few visual and structural changes. Warp zones also.

Please test and give your feedback on bugs plus any suggestions here.

Cheers!

looks amazing mintox!

Looks very nice, and I like the layout and item placement

A few things I noticed:

- Overall, the map seems very dark. Increase the ambient light, perhaps?
- When I go through the warpzones, my speed is reset to 0 (!). Idk if this is causing it, but there may not be enough room behind the warpzone for the player to be put into.
- The contrasting colours hurt my eyes (though that is just personal opinion)
- I'm not sure if it fits in with the theme, but I wouldn't mind seeing the blue and red rails replaced by "laser rails"
- Will #XONOTIC.HOCTF be in the final version? Because that might slow the map's uptake by server admins
- The aerials/electrical equipment on the roofs look a bit... dull. Perhaps it's the rust?
- I love how you can get onto the roof now

I really liked geomonetary, and geoplanetary is looking good so far!

go design real buildings.

I'll try the map later the evening.

Its only at the Blue side , which its weird, because I know it from the Nexuiz version and there its at the Red side. So I guess your genomonetary version for Xonotic for this bug also. I could not try this yet.

I think an open roof is bad, because you can camp from there easily.

I will put more lights through out to lighten the map up.
Thanks for the tip on the warpzones, i will see what i need to do to get these fixed.
The colors are going to stay the same sorry :p
I thought about laser rails, i may yet do it, im just worried about the map performance atm.
I should probably remove the xonotic.hoctf and just put #xonotic in there.
I kind of like the antennas but im open to suggestions...
The roof was not left open intentionally, that will be clipped off before the final release, sorry :p

Thanks for your input.
Cheers!

Yeah, a lot of that was just personal preference/opinion. Can't wait for the final

Alright, here's what I think:


Looks like you are using deprecated textures in certain areas (textures from nexcompat pk3dir):


What's wrong at this warpzone? Also, this is too easy of a shortcut to exploit, I think.


I'd avoid this kind of branding


Anyway, I've always liked geomonetary so the flaws with this map are generally purely cosmetic, since it doesn't seem like you touched the geometry a whole lot.
