    Just played this with some people and I must say I'm not exactly a fan. It's certainly got some potential, I just don't quite understand the whole moderator thing. Honestly since its a puzzle map you should be able to play this on your own otherwise it gets tedious real fast as it doesn't feel like a puzzle. Use multiple script interactions with the objects/items that you want people to find, which allow people to then advance to different areas that you want them to go.

    Hey there. Thanks for the feedback, it's always good to hear from people. I did specify that the map/mode is in a beta phase. I agree that the moderator deal is a tad tedious/out of place. My biggest issues however involve creating a reliable enough script to function every time (Scripts are super inconsistent) and also freeing up the item space to implement scripts. (I'm at the max.)

    I agree that as it stands now, it lacks some puzzle elements and after some more feedback I'll be going in and seeing what I can do to improve both immersion and play experience for The Rust Garden. I will be doing a series of these to build upon it's narrative so it's good to get feedback like this. I appreciate the honesty.
