    Why you're remaking that map, I'll never know....

    However, if you truly want to remake it, then you could probably do it from that one image. The map is 4-base radially symmetric, so you have a view of each base from a different angle, as well as the middle.

    Hmm interesting. Thank you. I'm assuming this was called "Free Fall".

    Anyways, I made some slight changes to it from the picture to make it a little more interesting. I have the main structure done. Just have to add a few walls and whatnot and we may be able to play it tonight.

    haha I thought was interesting and a fairly simple straight forward design that could be fun to play on. However I am tossing around a few ideas to make it stand out a little more.

    And honestly I really dislike extremely symmetrical maps. So I don't really know why I liked this map hahaha

    Yeah, I've never cared for the 4-base super symmetrical design either. Actually I used to strictly like asymmetrical maps but for some reason lately my own maps have tended to be semi-symmetrical... maybe they're just easier to build. :) Anyway I'll take a look at this with you later on. My main concern looking at that screenshot is that it looks really small and easy to fall off of. But that's their version, not yours.

    Ya symmetrical maps are stupidly simple to build. As soon as you have one side figured out, you can slap the other side together in a few minutes haha

    Some of the changes I made initially to make it different:

    Not floating super high in the air. Now it floats a few inches above the water.
    Added a few inclines into the water in certain areas. For aesthetic purposes and grenades don't bounce in water...
    Adding more cover and a few railings. However I wanted to retain to original idea of being able to fall off in a lot of areas so you need to be highly aware of your surroundings.

    Oh and some major changes I am thinking about adding:

    Possibly making four tunnels going under the center. (Good place for a power weapon spawn)

    And making the other two sides different. (Red & Blue symmetrical to eachother. Green & Orange different design but symmetrical to eachother.)
