================================================================
CONSTRUCTION
================================================================

Sounds : Nothing New, Some HL Sounds
Textures : Standard HL textures, Openfire textures
DMC lava textures.
Prefabs : I used a CTF prefab set
Compile Time : 1 hour 34 minutes
Extra Parameters : full VIS
sparse, -extra for RAD.
-high for the priority
-wadincludes
================================================================
Other Stuff you Should know
================================================================
The force-field thing kills enemy team players. Also, if a rocket
/grenade flies in, it'll be launched the opposite way, so you
can't really spam inside the spawn.
You spawn fully stocked.
================================================================
Changes in FINAL
================================================================
(Since I really couldn't think of anything else major to add, I
decided not to make a b6, and make a final. Most suggestions
were not implementable. If there are more suggestions, I might make a _l or _r or something)
Moved Ladders closer in Canyon Route.
Added Teleport Protection from getting stuck.
Aligned Textures.
Made FR better looking.
Other minor things.
================================================================
Changes in Beta 5
================================================================
New Route from lava area, leading to the Canyon cliffside that leads to an elevator to the flag. Also a grate that can detpacked to get into the water from this elevator area.
Some more signage.
Changed the bridges up a bit on the corners to allow SGs.
Tweaked bags.
And a bunch of other things I forgot.
================================================================
Changes in Beta 4
================================================================
Added a nifty tunnel thing. It has lava! =o
Aligned some textures.
Added clip brushes to prevent annoyances.
================================================================
Changes in Beta 3
================================================================
Added Team-only bags to flag rooms.
Added Else goal messages to certain things.
Modified direction of one player start.
Added message to grenade bag.
Added Elevator to flag rooms.
================================================================
Changes in Beta 2
================================================================
Respawn system changed a bit. You spawn fully loaded. Two bags
are in the main spawn for injured defensive players. If a front
line defender is in need of health, he should go into the team
teleporters in the front spawn, to be teleported to the
main spawn for the health. The grenade bag (for extra secondary
grenades) is in the main spawn as well. You spawn with full frag
grens or caltrops.
Added a ledge in one of the ramp rooms.
Added crates in one of the ramp rooms.
There is a small bag in both ramp rooms.
Spotlight changed to additive.
Aligned some textures.
Fixed disappearing flag glitch.
Lowered water level.
Fixed ladder bug.
Put respawn turret on opposite side of front spawn to prevent
getting stuck in it during teleports.
Took grenades out of the front spawn.
Teleporter is team specific.
Fixed the unit gap between the ramps and ground.
Some extra signs.
Minor tweaks.
================================================================
Known Bugs
================================================================
There is a leaf-saw-through-leaf error, but that shouldn't affect anything.
Theres a few misaligned textures I'll fix in the final version. Can't be bothered recompiling just for a few textures. :P
Please contact me ( [email protected] ) if you encounter a bugs.
================================================================
Proposed names for areas :D
================================================================
There really is no telling what kind of names people will come up with for different areas in Nocturne, for there is 2 ramp rooms, and a semi-ramp room. What I call the areas:
Of course there's the flag room, it has the flag in it, which is on the flag bridge. Under the flag bridge is the flag ele and the FR water. The main resupply/respawn is behind the FR (with the force field). The forward resupply/respawn is towards the middle of the base near the halls and ramp rooms. The 2 halls that converge into the FR are called "left" and "right" halls (imagine that). The Long Hall that connects the Right and Left halls is called the Long Hall. The hall that connects right and left and the main resupply is the Rear Hall. The Ramp Halls are the halls emerging from the Ramp Rooms, called left and right as well. The Ramp Room with the Crates I call the Main RR or Crate RR, and the other ramp room I call the Secondary RR or Ladder RR. Its the RR with the ladder and SG perch. The Water Route Halls lead to the water route to the FR, called left and right as well. The Water Route is the long hall that leads to water in the FR. The Sewer/Vent is the dry detpackable area that leads to the Water Route. The room with the elevator and detpack area is called the Elevator Room (originality at its best.) The canyon area inside the base with the backpack and ladder (emerging from the lava route) is called the Canyon. (The cliff area in front of the Secondary RR is the yard, and the Midfield is the area between the two main entrances) The Main Entrance is the Entrance that can take you to the Main (Crate RR) The Lava Route is the route that has the rickety bridge over the lava, it can take you to the main entrance and/or the Canyon.
