comebackplay 08/08/2025 2:19 PM

ah ye i see but its still weird

ililja 08/08/2025 2:19 PM

ill just incres the speedups by 2

ililja 08/08/2025 2:20 PM

it should be fine then

comebackplay 08/08/2025 2:20 PM

im about gate in general

comebackplay 08/08/2025 2:20 PM

better rework

ililja 08/08/2025 2:20 PM

you mean the solo?

ililja 08/08/2025 2:20 PM

solo needs rework? or the end

comebackplay 08/08/2025 7:27 PM

end

comebackplay 08/09/2025 11:26 AM

this is better.

comebackplay 08/09/2025 11:26 AM

idk about u but for me cus its not in middle looks bad.

comebackplay 08/09/2025 11:33 AM

insted of this better smth like this i removed frezze

comebackplay 08/09/2025 11:35 AM

i still don't like this shields. u give weapons for one solo part its bad.

comebackplay 08/09/2025 11:36 AM

this one is so bad. so many random stuff can happens here.

comebackplay 08/09/2025 11:37 AM

too much empty space move wall closer

comebackplay 08/09/2025 11:40 AM

Close this one. People will try it because they can forget about the laser.

comebackplay 08/09/2025 11:42 AM

1 spam 2 i dont get for what this?

comebackplay 08/09/2025 11:43 AM

gates need defiantly rework

comebackplay 08/09/2025 11:46 AM

solo a bit long last edge maybe two better remove or better rework cus its 6 edge jumps in a row.

comebackplay 08/09/2025 11:47 AM

Remove it by reworking.

comebackplay 08/09/2025 11:50 AM

this stoppers too possible remove by replacing walls

comebackplay 08/09/2025 11:51 AM

both can go <

comebackplay 08/09/2025 11:52 AM

also ur map dont have finish line. its against the rule dont do that again. upd: ah i see, mb

comebackplay 08/09/2025 11:54 AM

ur map is short, i think u need another floor.

comebackplay 08/09/2025 11:55 AM

not bad map.

ililja 08/09/2025 1:52 PM

the tee nedds that wall to be stoppers so he can exit

ililja 08/09/2025 1:53 PM

that was inetentional

ililja 08/09/2025 1:53 PM

the down way was so he could save him if he didnt make it

ililja 08/09/2025 1:53 PM

the rest ill do

comebackplay 08/09/2025 1:53 PM

i know what stoppers do) but if u rework correcly u dont need stoppers

ililja 08/09/2025 1:54 PM

but why change it if it works?

comebackplay 08/09/2025 1:55 PM

if possible without stoppers (or any specials tiles) u need to do without that.

ililja 08/09/2025 1:55 PM

rly?

comebackplay 08/09/2025 1:55 PM

its my own rule, but most good mappers follow that.

ililja 08/09/2025 1:56 PM

but how would you do it without stoppers?

ililja 08/09/2025 1:56 PM

with hookthrough you can get top tee in with you

comebackplay 08/09/2025 1:57 PM

i will show when finish current testing, i ping u

ililja 08/09/2025 1:58 PM

ililja 08/10/2025 1:42 PM

ililja 08/10/2025 1:42 PM

comebackplay 08/10/2025 1:45 PM

ililja 08/10/2025 1:45 PM

comebackplay 08/10/2025 1:46 PM

ililja 08/10/2025 1:46 PM

ililja 08/10/2025 1:50 PM

.

ililja 08/10/2025 1:50 PM

.

ililja 08/10/2025 1:50 PM

thats the 3

ililja 08/10/2025 1:51 PM

i think

comebackplay 08/10/2025 1:51 PM

But I would also like an explanation as to why it does not fit for finding compromises.

ililja 08/10/2025 1:52 PM

on the first mentioned there is not much too compomise its either that or that

comebackplay 08/10/2025 1:52 PM

or if reason is too big leave it as is it

ililja 08/10/2025 1:52 PM

on the weapons it would need a big rework of the map

comebackplay 08/10/2025 1:56 PM

but what about that? what is here dosent fit?

ililja 08/10/2025 1:57 PM

told you i would change this one

ililja 08/10/2025 1:57 PM

you mean the noobfilter right?

ililja 08/10/2025 2:17 PM

made the noobfilter like triki wants it and fixed the problem with the map being unbeatable

DDNet 08/10/2025 2:17 PM
ililja 08/10/2025 2:17 PM

fixed the tele

comebackplay 08/10/2025 2:20 PM

lol, no this

ililja 08/10/2025 2:20 PM

cus i want the part like that

ililja 08/10/2025 2:20 PM

.

comebackplay 08/10/2025 2:23 PM

1 maan rlyyyy 2 this also looks weird

comebackplay 08/10/2025 2:25 PM

spam, and i alredy mention this here

comebackplay 08/10/2025 2:27 PM

ok other looks fine. waiting for one more floor.

ililja 08/10/2025 2:41 PM

im sad to dissapoint you but i think the length is enough since most maps are of similar length

ililja 08/10/2025 2:41 PM

yea i forgot about the spam

ililja 08/10/2025 2:42 PM

ill center it for you

comebackplay 08/10/2025 2:47 PM

Let me double-check the length.

comebackplay 08/10/2025 2:49 PM

i dont want dissapoint u but this map is short. if it was novice i agreed with but its brutal. also we need third pov u can ask testers maybe im wrong and its enough.

ililja 08/10/2025 2:50 PM

dunno what map you play but all most all the maps i play have this length

ililja 08/10/2025 2:51 PM

it takes me 12 min to finish with a really good run you could probably get it to 6 mins which is comparable to a lot of brutals

comebackplay 08/10/2025 2:51 PM

i take random 3 star brutal map.

ililja 08/10/2025 2:52 PM

random 1 star

ililja 08/10/2025 2:52 PM

its shorter

comebackplay 08/10/2025 2:52 PM

this is lastest t0 map but 4 star

ililja 08/10/2025 2:53 PM

i think mine would be 1-2 not 3 or 4

ililja 08/10/2025 2:53 PM

random 2

ililja 08/10/2025 2:54 PM

we can continue this if you want but on 1-2 star atleast this is the standard length

comebackplay 08/10/2025 2:55 PM

this map from 2015

ililja 08/10/2025 2:55 PM

does it matter?

ililja 08/10/2025 2:55 PM

i can continue

comebackplay 08/10/2025 2:56 PM

yes, better look at 24-25

ililja 08/10/2025 2:57 PM

about same maybe bit longer

ililja 08/10/2025 2:57 PM

its one of the latest releases

ililja 08/10/2025 2:57 PM

this too

comebackplay 08/10/2025 2:58 PM

name?

ililja 08/10/2025 2:58 PM

just look at new maps

ililja 08/10/2025 2:58 PM

apotheosis

comebackplay 08/10/2025 2:58 PM

ah its 2ppl map its fine, parts are different, gameplay is also diff

ililja 08/10/2025 2:58 PM

amateu

ililja 08/10/2025 3:00 PM

do you mean my map is fine or that its fine beacause they are 2 player maps?

comebackplay 08/10/2025 3:01 PM

its just different gameplay.

ililja 08/10/2025 3:02 PM

2 days one of the most popular maps released 2 years ago a t0 map

ililja 08/10/2025 3:02 PM
comebackplay 08/10/2025 3:03 PM

idk how u count length, but i count it by parts. u can do longer parts but its still one part which count like one

ililja 08/10/2025 3:03 PM

i look by overall length

ililja 08/10/2025 3:04 PM

it has 2 floors

ililja 08/10/2025 3:04 PM

abit shorter from left to right

ililja 08/10/2025 3:04 PM

its shorter than mine

ililja 08/10/2025 3:04 PM

thats my logic

ililja 08/10/2025 3:05 PM

and i just counted the parts it has less than my map

comebackplay 08/10/2025 3:06 PM

This one is one part and it takes up 35% of the second floor.

ililja 08/10/2025 3:07 PM

ig

ililja 08/10/2025 3:07 PM

but

ililja 08/10/2025 3:07 PM

is that bad

ililja 08/10/2025 3:08 PM

its just how the part is

comebackplay 08/10/2025 3:09 PM

if u think ur map have same "useful length" as this map ur wrong. 1 its way harder map. 2 more parts.

ililja 08/10/2025 3:09 PM

"usefull length" id say no

ililja 08/10/2025 3:09 PM

overall length theyre about the same amateur is maybe 20% longer

comebackplay 08/10/2025 3:09 PM

we spam on this channel toomuch. just wait someone other.

ililja 08/10/2025 3:10 PM

sure

comebackplay 08/10/2025 3:15 PM

if u wanna $redy from me, u need to map longer, then i run it with some one for looking problems, do fixes, and then redy.

ililja 08/10/2025 3:22 PM

im fine with adding 10 more but a whole floor

ililja 08/10/2025 3:23 PM

seems bit excessive

ililja 08/10/2025 3:23 PM

well wait for what others say

comebackplay 08/10/2025 3:23 PM

10 more its about a floor.

ililja 08/10/2025 3:23 PM

not rl

ililja 08/10/2025 3:23 PM

like half

ililja 08/10/2025 3:23 PM

of a floor

ililja 08/10/2025 3:23 PM

then ill do what they say

comebackplay 08/10/2025 3:23 PM

idk how u counting did u count fillers?

ililja 08/10/2025 3:24 PM

yes

comebackplay 08/10/2025 3:25 PM

1 for example this is one part. 2 but u counting it like 3? or what

ililja 08/10/2025 3:26 PM

2

ililja 08/10/2025 3:27 PM

this ia filler part and i count it too

comebackplay 08/10/2025 3:27 PM

stoppers also is separate-filler not a part

ililja 08/10/2025 3:28 PM

lets just wait this discussion is going no where

comebackplay 08/10/2025 3:28 PM

filler cant be a part. its filler or part.

ililja 08/10/2025 3:28 PM

well what do you see that as

ililja 08/10/2025 3:28 PM

i see it as a part

comebackplay 08/10/2025 3:28 PM

its filler. just filler|| if we talk about middle one||

ililja 08/10/2025 3:29 PM

and theres the problem it will be a back and forth

ililja 08/10/2025 3:29 PM

i also see what you mean

ililja 08/10/2025 3:29 PM

but its still a part since you need to pass it

ililja 08/10/2025 3:29 PM

and you can fail there

ililja 08/10/2025 3:29 PM

thats why it counts as a part too me

ililja 08/10/2025 3:30 PM

yea the middle one

comebackplay 08/10/2025 3:33 PM

ok this part - filler so, problem all what have "filler" doesn't count as length map. thats why ur map looks long but still short.

ililja 08/10/2025 3:34 PM

it does to me since its failable or adds time it should count towards map length

comebackplay 08/10/2025 3:35 PM

this is how the world works.

ililja 08/10/2025 3:35 PM

my map isnt mostly filler

ililja 08/10/2025 3:35 PM

it has a few

ililja 08/10/2025 3:35 PM

bit like 70%

ililja 08/10/2025 3:36 PM

is real parts

ililja 08/10/2025 3:38 PM

i dont remeber the wold working according to your will?

yaccre 08/10/2025 4:06 PM

this part still makes no sense in t0, if other tees get skipped they are without weapons and useless for all next parts

ililja 08/10/2025 4:07 PM

thats quite hard copared to the rest of the map

yaccre 08/10/2025 4:07 PM

u hav etele all except wher eu need it ?XD

ililja 08/10/2025 4:07 PM

i got told to remove teles

ililja 08/10/2025 4:08 PM

not there

ililja 08/10/2025 4:08 PM

but overall

ililja 08/10/2025 4:08 PM

ill swith them

ililja 08/10/2025 4:10 PM

your making the parts too hard ur forgetting this is not that hard of a map

yaccre 08/10/2025 4:11 PM

after this point bottom tee doesnt use laser again, maybe remove an unfreeze

ililja 08/10/2025 4:11 PM

ill let you test first then ill reply

yaccre 08/10/2025 4:12 PM

u lose laser and sg, then right after there is laser and sg solo, maybe exchange part order here to collect similar parts

yaccre 08/10/2025 4:14 PM

woudlve been cool imo if speed was forced and u had to laser urself all in one motion

comebackplay 08/10/2025 4:16 PM

whisper: most of ur fixes do map harder, which mapper dont wanna)

ililja 08/10/2025 4:16 PM

i do like the idea with the weapons

ililja 08/10/2025 4:16 PM

im experimenting rn

ililja 08/10/2025 4:17 PM

then you would be happy too triki :3

yaccre 08/10/2025 4:18 PM

cool part

yaccre 08/10/2025 4:19 PM

skip, i assume u will fix this by making drag longer but keep in mind that drags are overused and sleeper gameplay

yaccre 08/10/2025 4:21 PM

this map has more solo than filler even XD

ililja 08/10/2025 4:21 PM

i maybe went a bit overboard with the solos :c

yaccre 08/10/2025 4:21 PM

only the hh filler is brutal, without those two fillers this map is moderate

yaccre 08/10/2025 4:21 PM

i would say rather the map is too easy across the board

ililja 08/10/2025 4:22 PM

rly i can remove some teles or most

yaccre 08/10/2025 4:24 PM

well rn it's leaning toward high mod bc of faily parts only

yaccre 08/10/2025 4:25 PM

would be nicer to see more cool parts

yaccre 08/10/2025 4:26 PM

e.g this map isnt comparable at all bc its full of high effort drag parrts, while the drag parts in this map are limited by mainly 3x3 structure

ililja 08/10/2025 4:27 PM

i wouldnt call them high effort but i see what you mean

yaccre 08/10/2025 4:27 PM

idk how u even make real parts in 3x3 that isnt t0

yaccre 08/10/2025 4:28 PM

its like sunday maps

ililja 08/10/2025 4:28 PM

sunday maps?

yaccre 08/10/2025 4:29 PM
ililja 08/10/2025 4:29 PM

ah i see

ililja 08/10/2025 4:32 PM

what do you think about this as a replacement to the parts between the solo and the shields?

ililja 08/10/2025 4:32 PM

dunno if its possible ima test it

ililja 08/10/2025 4:38 PM

it works

ililja 08/10/2025 4:49 PM

changed the parts between shields and solo removed tps too make the map more diificult design issues and added an indicator on the first drag that players need sg

DDNet 08/10/2025 4:49 PM
ililja 08/10/2025 4:49 PM

fixed tele that i oversaw

ililja 08/13/2025 7:07 AM

changed the background and fixed some design

alw5 09/10/2025 5:17 PM

solo part is impossible since you dont have both weapons

vena6080 09/10/2025 5:20 PM

the map is not possible in the first solo you don't have the good weapon

vena6080 09/10/2025 5:21 PM

the way the stopper are used is not great

vena6080 09/10/2025 5:21 PM

noobfilter should not exist

vena6080 09/10/2025 5:21 PM

the map have some hh aspect but is a 2p map in same time

vena6080 09/10/2025 5:22 PM

the structure 3*3 is not respected

vena6080 09/10/2025 5:22 PM

many parts are rly generic, a bit too much

DDNet 09/10/2025 5:23 PM

Mention:

@ililja
ililja 09/11/2025 2:54 PM

hey i respect your feedback but its a bit vague could you pls go into more detail on what makes the stoppers badly used and what is so generic.

ililja 09/11/2025 2:54 PM

also a 2p can have hh no? i know the hh is boring but its not a no go

ililja 09/11/2025 2:55 PM

theres no way around that and its not like its important to only use 3x3 blocks

ililja 09/11/2025 2:56 PM

generic doesn't necessarily mean bad imo i think generic parts are fun to play and most parts have already been done you can most of the time only slightly alter them.

ililja 09/11/2025 2:56 PM

sure ill remove it

ililja 09/11/2025 2:57 PM

ill fix it

ililja 09/11/2025 3:03 PM

oh and also if i remove noobfilter should i make it teamforce 2p?

ililja 09/11/2025 3:06 PM

Removed noobfilter and added weapons to the solo cus i forgot

ililja 09/11/2025 3:07 PM

these were two minor changes and did not validate a decline imo if you add more context i would understand more clearly why its declined

ililja 09/15/2025 3:58 PM

you wanna expand on that?

vena6080 09/15/2025 4:13 PM

i meant, most of the parts are basic/seen again and again in all the hh maps

ililja 09/15/2025 4:15 PM

?

ililja 09/15/2025 4:15 PM

they arent rly

ililja 09/15/2025 4:16 PM

and by expand i mean which ones are rly bad

ramirok_ 09/15/2025 4:46 PM

Go to sleep vena so much test

ililja 09/17/2025 3:24 PM

do you not wanna give actual feedback?

ililja 09/17/2025 3:24 PM

first of this is more a hybrid map (which is not against the rules + its a 20/80 split so its more a 2p map)

ililja 09/17/2025 3:24 PM

with hh parts you are mentioning about 20% of actual parts

ililja 09/17/2025 3:25 PM

i have not gotten any feedback on 70% of my map

ililja 09/17/2025 3:28 PM
