Unfinished maps/map ideas center.

Postby Varoid37 » 13 July 2016, 21:41

Okay, so I had an idea, we need an area for people to post maps they either don't know how to complete or are too lazy to complete because the map is so complicated or has gaven them so many problems, that way if they don't wanna complete it, they don't have to abandon the whole concept. They just make the map open source, publish it, and, preferably, give information on why they abandoned it so the next people who use it can have an idea on why it was abandoned and how to fix it.

The idea is that this would help both map makers, the one with the origonal map can have their map completed despite having given up, and the people who help with the map won't have to start totally from scratch. Plus, there may be someone with a really cool map idea who just isn't experienced enough with the map maker to finish it.

Anyway, this post is basically to give people a space to post these maps.

I have this map, varoid37-zinnia for instance. The idea is that a scientist makes zinnia from pokemon real, and she goes on this nightmarish rampage because the transition between abstract concept and reality interprets her personality the wrong way because of her dark attire or something, something about incomplete information, and she uses a ditto has an armor suit that can use any pokemon move and can protect her from injury. The sky becomes so dark that there are no stars, a little bit of light even gets sucked from around the windows, and the world gets messed up, mixed with the world of pokemon.

For instance, there's a trash can on top of one of the buildings that has garbedour in it, that say something like "We're not evil, we're garbedour, we're trash bags but we're alive, please put us out of our misery!", and the player's like "wth?", and zinnia can use infestation to make spiders come out of the ground and eat people, or gillotine to chop them in half, or teleport, or maybe something else, I don't remember. I was going to have her make a gun that puts copies of her, only visible and 20 HP, wherever the gun fires, but when I did that, the game froze up after I did it a few times and it wouldn't work.

This isn't exactly like my nightmare, but I actually had a nightmare similar to this concept once that gave me the idea. The idea of the map is basically that pokemon in real life would actually be really terrifying.

Bugs and problems with the map:

First off, in multiplayer, after you knock the door's HP down to 0, it doesn't reset like it should at the beginning of a match, so it won't open, but also can't be destroyed. (At least I think that's how it worked), anyway, if someone wanted to see about how to make a door in single player have HP on it, this is probably how you'd do it.

Secondly, I wanted the doors used for gillotine and stuff to only be there when you're clicking on the target, and the regions to, basically for the whole thing to be an attack, not a set of doors that stay there indefinently, but instead it takes like 10 seconds to get over there, often times hits the player using it, and after the map resets it puts the doors back where they were, but then moves them back to the area you attacked last match automatically.

Thirdly, I was too stressed out to add more detail and whatever else would make the map cooler, so feel free to add something else if you think of it.

And finally, I have a new map concept idea I don't wanna start on, where someone could actually be able to fly, and others couldn't. So you could do some serious batman v superman stuff.

The way you could do this is to have two areas, one with water and the other one without water, an exact distance from eachother, and have the guy able to fly in the area with water, and the ones stuck on the ground in the dry area, and have a door represent the guy who can fly in the dry area by having it move where he moves, only the distance between the two areas away from him, and vice versa for the team in the area where there's water. When they fire their guns, it could have a door move between the regions, like bullets made out of tiny doors that go wherever they shoot in both sides, and hit them to do damage, they could have them go between the regions where their cursor are and the player, ect. (They'd use the distance between the two areas), you could also make explosions and stuff too like this with a modded machine gun for superman's heat vision. :)

Or you could just do whatever you can think of with the concept.

Anyway, I haven't started on the superman one, and feel free to try to make something of the zinnia map I made, I've gotten it open source and stuff.

Also, post other maps and ideas for maps here too for other people to work on. :)

Three words:

Work. In. Progress.
There is where you need to post these kinds of Maps.
