Locomotion

I started this project a week ago, deciding that I had lived long enough without a Headlong inspired map in my life. What took shape is a map that is loud and fun, and brings a level of strategy back to Halo that was never in Halo 3 Big Team (or so I tell myself.) But enough of an introduction:

Locomotion is inspired by Headlong and is very similar to it in certain parts of the map. It plays with 5 to 8 players per team, with the most fun coming at the 8 person level. The weapons pallet is framed around the vehicles. The offense begins with sniper, rockets, shotgun on their side of the map, with a closer run to laser in the middle. The offense also has a gauss hog, a regular hog and a mongoose to start with, but after the first spawn the gauss will never spawn again. This is because of the overpowering effect of this hog. Use it wisely. To counter this overpowering hog, the defense spawns with a hog and a ghost, and has the ability to get a plasma pistol, focus rifle, sword, plasma launcher and rockets. They also spawn closer to camo and overshield.

Locomotion will only play one flag and one bomb. Slayer is silly with this weapon layout, and two bomb/flag is out of the question.

One things to mention is that the crane teleporter is underneath the bridge on the offensive side. DO NOT TAKE THE BOMB THROUGH THERE. There is a soft death zone there to keep people from camping. Please do not post telling me the map is broken because of this, it is intentional. If someone can suggest a cleaner way to force people to leave, I would gladly implement it.

I would like to note that I am still testing, and will consider making a cleaner v2 if and when there are comments and suggestions.

Without further ado:

Thanks for this, hit me up with a FR if you want to test.
