    For some reason, throughout the day I have been getting ideas for maps (probably because I have looked through so many). Well, here they are:

    1. Zombie(s) in containment escaping from maximum security prison
    2. A map that can hold any even number of people. When the game starts every set of two are pitted against each other, one on one.
    3. Duck Hunt/Trying to capture a flag involving Sandbox guardians (they shoot too fast so maybe place barriers heavily limiting their shooting ability)
    4. Zombies in a building trying to stop humans from getting in and killing them all (if they survive for [x] amount of time, they win).
    5. Trying to get into a safe zone where the Sandbox guardians cannot get you, they are blocked for [x] amount of time until [event] unblocks them and kills anyone not in the safe zone.
    6. Slayer/Capture The Flag/Assault/Infection in an all-open area where things constantly fall from the sky
    7. Fighting on vertical columns with gravity hammers trying to both fight and not fall off at the same time.

    One or more of these have probably been done or attempted but they have not been used to their full advantage. You may think most of these could not be done but I have thought through all of them (except for the third option). I can guarantee you that most of these will work if you attempt to do them depending on how good you can Forge. This thread's purpose is to give people looking for ideas some inspiration although what you think of these ideas is up to you. If you want more details on one of the ideas do not hesitate to message me.

    That thread was posted three weeks ago, meaning that posting in it is officially called "bumping" which is against the rules. Besides, there is nothing stating you cannot make more than one and that one had the posters post ideas, I am giving the community ideas for maps. Although if people want me to add theirs, I am fine with that.

    Yea, obviously you did not read the huge "Read Before You Post" section of the thread or even the details of the option, saying that they were too fast but if you heavily limited where they shot with barriers then it may be possible.

    that map isn't a map. Its a thread. AND its a stickied thread. Thus, you go there for your needs instead of going on your own business of making a new thread that serves no purpose other than restating what that other thread is doing.

    Kinda funny how you based your whole post off of a typo in mine. Anyways, what do you think about the other ideas from this thread?

    I like #4. its twisting the whole infection idea around. trouble is, you have to persuade the humans to actually go after the zombies. what is gonna make them want to go into the building?

    #5 can't really work since yóu have to float immovable objects infront of the guardians to stop the blasts from killing you. And what you are suggesting is having a Movable object in front of them so they get pushed off after a certain amount of time. Its hard to explain, but if you think about it then you will understand.

    Thank you for the compliment, I appreciate it. I do not think I can answer your question, the only thing I can think of is that they would want to kill the zombies. And maybe set the number of lives to a set amount so they do not continuously respawn. Or after a certain amount of time the zombies get a hold of power weapons and are released to kill all the humans and the humans have to stop that.

    For the fifth option, I thought that maybe if something was used that had to do with the minimum/maximum rule then maybe the guardians would be blocked by a vehicle (on top of an immovable object) and using the minimum/maximum rule, since the guardians would destroy the vehicleinstead of respawning where it used to be, it would respawn somewhere else on the map and once the vehicle's remains (on the immovable object blocking the guardians) disappears, the guardians would be free. Sounds complicated, though :[.

    Edit: Added a new idea~
