TOPIC: [SSRP] Server 1 Map Edit Ideas

Hello!

I'm working on an edit for the drp_ext downtown map currently on server 1, and I want to hear some ideas from you guys as to what you want. I'm getting used to hammer so I'll have to practice making some more maps before I add anything major that is suggested, but other than that, I'm looking for some good ideas.

I'd also like feedback on changes I add to this changelog, if something looks out of place or terrible - let me know.

Also, if there's any bugs in the current map, please tell me. I'm aware of one so far with a thin, invisible wall protruding into a room. Also, a section above a door in one of the rooms is transparent.

Changelog
-- NONE YET --

Accepted Ideas
- Balcony replaces window on penthouse at top of spawn apartment.
- Courtroom changed to something secret
- Mining area changed to actually be a mine rather than a dead-end tunnel.

There has been a bug when you get stuck in the gas station when you get out of your car. So make the gas station bigger?

- Regards

Do you mean you want me to make the roof bigger?

Also, the balcony is done:

As Chester said, make the Gas station bigger.
And also move the PD to where it originally is at on the rp_downtown map and add a big sign that says "Police departament" or something, so people know.

I don't want to move the PD. That's going to be really choppy and really unnecessary.

I'll consider it if there's large demand for it, but I feel it would just be a waste of time.

You Should add a Shooting Range With Dummies

In my opinion there should be billboards with ZARP logo. We could add pedestrian crosses somewhere just to let gameplay and map be more realistic.

I'll try, but the only way I could do that at my level of hammer is have nothing happen to the dummies when shot.

Changing spawn point to the fountain near the main district? Maybe that would be better and adding water to the fountain too. The other suggestion is adding a pond instead of 1 building near the disco...

Probably replace the fountain with a market, where people can get the Shop Owner job and make a little tent' over there and sell their things.

Want to edit the mine area to make it look more like a mine? Just any little adjustments like a sign or a special entrance door but atleast make sure it is blocked off from cars being able to drive in and run down scrubs all willy nilly!

Thanks

Welcome to ZARP, where you can sum up drivers in just one image:



Sure.

The fountain is pretty iconic to downtown: I'm reluctant to remove it. I will, however, add some form of marketplace.

What about my spawn and pond ideas?
EDIT: Don't change the courtroom, we could add a judge job!! See my suggestions thread, I added that there with some details

Gas station roof

Spawn is good as it is, it takes stress away from other parts of the map.

I'd probably leave the courtroom alone given that it was the previous version of the map; however this one is just a bare room which will become something much more exciting. It's really not worth having a judge job for the 300 seconds you're arrested. Obviously it applies at gamemodes like PERP, but this is semi serious roleplay.

Well, you do have a point, but it would be very fun to play as a judge!! Prison bars with guilty people in them, prison guards around them, random people watching, and the mayor in the court making decisions with the judge!! What if the arrested person is TPed to the court after his 2nd arrest?? That would be nice

EDIT: Please fix the court and let it be used as it should

We've turned down this suggestion before for the main reason that people prefer to get on with their RP. 300 seconds really isn't enough to RP a judge.

Chris if you need help with these maps I can help you, however you will need to teach me how to use these programs. xD

I need to know what you guys want to put in the marketplace. Do you just want a blank area, or some stalls with ownable RP doors on? How big?
