If I had to guess, baking a bunch of stuff into the map and the addon itself.

I don't think you understood where I'm coming from, I was just suggesting that it would be possible to contact the map author and ask permission to remove a few buildings ourselves in Hammer to create building space for players.

You still have to download a "custom" version then?

Ofcourse you do but it's not the same as spending hours and hours or spending a lot of money creating a fully custom map, that was not my point. My point is you can just use hammer and remove some buildings in order to create building space for RP.

Which is a custom version of the map.
If a player doesn't have the map downloaded, it pushes your server down the rankings.
People are less likely to join (with the ranking above, they're notified they don't have the map, and even if they join after at, they still have to download it).

There are only two ways of getting past that.
Having a community so big that it forces past that issue, or making a map so popular that most people have it already.

Most people will not have this map downloaded anyways though

60000 people are subscribed to southside, that's a lot more than 0.

Watch us make an edit and severely fuck the map's optimisation and fuck it recompiling it

also "just removing a few buildings" is still custom

It's a shame you can't have both the day and night versions.

Could be a good idea to refresh the map more, might reduce build up over time and lag which is good...and gives diversity for day / night.
Could also stop people just contra whoring


But, if people are mid RP, could disturb it significantly
So, we've had a result, at 88% in support of a change.
We spent many hours setting up the map, so I'd like to thank all those that helped.


















5 hours of work, into locations, properties, spawns, refuel, repair, fishing, trees, phonebooths, ID terminals.
Now, it's going on build. Get your dupes built, fly around, see how you want your builds to work.
In a few days, it's going on live.

As always, bug reports in the bug reports section, but we think we've got most of them already Smile
Cheers for everyone who voted.
