    Map Description
    This is basically a tutorial based map that includes switches
    and all sorts of cool things that you can use to get over or
    through a wall. I've included, a hopper type thing, a doorbell that
    opens a door, a 2 working door, and a rockwall.

    More will be explained with the pictures.
    _________________________________________________

    This is an overview of the wall
    [​IMG]
    As you can see, there are 5 different things on the wall.

    The hopper
    [​IMG]
    This is a pic of the hopper before i activate it, The way it works
    is that there are 2 mancannons in the boxes surrounding it but the
    box is held in place with a custom powerup. when you take it,
    It launches you up and over the wall.

    The doorbell activated door
    [​IMG]

    The way this works is, theres a fusion coil in a small hole, when
    you destroy it by beating it down, it blows up 2 more coils and a grav
    lift. When this gravlift is destroyed, a new one is spawned above the
    door lifting it up.

    blowing up the doorbell

    door opens

    The ladder
    [​IMG]
    Now we move onto the ladder, this works by a mancannon launching
    you upwards. The mancannon is concealed behind a bridge and stairs,
    this makes it look like a ladder. Many of you have seen this in my
    F.N.G. timetrial map in my sig but it's pretty simple and easy to make.

    A picture of the 2 way door
    [​IMG]
    everyone knows about the "how to make a door thread" and i just
    added on to that with a 2 way doors system. It works with one teleporter
    hidden behind each door and a reciever node hidden in the floorboards.
    When you go in one way, it sends you to the other.

    going through
    [​IMG]

    coming back
    [​IMG]

    picture of the inner workings of the 2 way door

    rockwall

    This is pretty self explanatory. Wall with random objects interlocked
    in the wall

    I don't really expect to get many downloads, I just want to help
    the few people who need it.

    I love the door teleporter door system, but the wall isn't in the ground so you just can't walk onto it. I don't really get the point of this map other than demonstration, which I don't think a lot of people will need after looking at the pictures.

    Gorgeous and beautiful... but its not a working ladder. a working ladder can be used both way. Its an aesthetic one way ladder. but best attempt i've seen yet

    and i love all the other switches. does the hopper reset? I'll find out anyways when i play this. its been DL'd

    This is one of the most helpful and unique posts I have seen in aesthetics. I love all of these and am glad that you descibed all of them. This is very helpful and I will definetly use these ideas. Don't expect to get many downloads since the pictures are enough to figure out how to recreate these. Very Good work. Maybe make a version two with more switches like the drawbridge.
