    I managed to get outside of the top sky bubble area, and I blocked off the lasers with some Y-Tube connectors.

    There's probably a better way to do this, i just figured i'd post it with the hopes that someone will make it better.

    Also, for anyone that reads this before the news post goes up. I've talked to the guy doing my hosting at haloscreenshots.net and I've been able to turn on hotlinking here for you guys.

    the bbcode embedding on the page with your screenshot should work here with no problems.

    Well someone else beat ME to it, but this is good.

    Notice how his map already has sandbox objects on it? Me and IKL Dead Man's doesnt.

    We did it to give the player a complete canvas, but this one adds the option to use the default objects if the player so chooses.

    It's a good thing =)

    You don't have to overload the map to get out. You can telebump outside the skybubble. (really easily i might add).

    And yea, that one tower is a *****, but the reason i was using the Y-Tube is because you can get it all blocked with just the right positioning.

    Yeah, and it looks clean when you do. The problem with that one bitchy tower is that it can still shoot out of the sides unless you use extra objects. There are a few specific spots on the map you can still get killed if you don't put up extra barriers. Might want to fix that on your map if you haven't.

    So, i ran around the map, both on foot, and in the air, staring at the stupid tower, and it was never able to shoot me. From the far left of it's range, to the far right, and everywhere in between.

    I think the ideal map for me/someone to do this on, would be the crypt "canvas" map that is posted below.

    Everything that you start with is still there, just nicely stacked up... AND the lasers can't get you.

    This is a great thing bungie let us do, this expands sandbox X4. You really could have used smaller, less useful objects rather that the intersection, or maybe you did and i just can't see. Regardless, good job!

    I think I would go insane with all the explosions from the towers :(

    They do still shoot, right?
