too unnecessary

3mb?

delete unnecessary tele

add timer parts

I think you should zoom in 1 block

slight right

novice it should be pretty easy and need to be finished with easy thinking

delete maybe

i think you should add a chair there it might be a bit difficult for the players (novice)

too much unnecessary unfreeze

you should just put it on the freeze edges

like it's a little tight

you have to play and test the maps yourself before upload discord channel

most likely to be declined

there are bugs in the first parts

is it your first try

yes

Will do all idm

I tested it couple of times

just lemme know if there is anything else

u mean timer checkpoints there is already u mean need more ?

I put 10 I think where players meet

So both can take same timer

Too hard for novice

there is harder novice maps , at least this no death + checkpoints

Where are the bugs ?

Difficulty rating has changed over time.

Difficulty rating has changed over time.

tested this with noob players they did fine , they said not easy but manageable and enjoyable

it’s just the general different techs , try the map first then see

did you play it start to finish?

5* novice, problem solved

Did u even test this ?

more than half of the images u added are unused (marked blue color)

u mark freeze with 2 diffirent tiles its misleading

tons of design bugs

corners etc.

u can cheat few of parts with cp's

u forgot to put freeze in this whole part on the ground

unhook and hookthrough same tile pretty much its already confusing fix the border thing

both can just go < and skip the whole part easily

Map is unbalanced this is definetly not novice parts

$decline

sad

Look next part

its still most likely doable

There is freeze maybe you using Super

no there is no freeze

i screenshoted it look again

its Live freeze

ah okay

well live freeze is a bad thing anyways

Then u have wrong or bugged file

my entities dont have live freeze in them cuz noone uses thoose

Didn’t know that’s a thing

i use custom entities not the ones from ddnet

Played with more than 8 different people from noob to pro all enjoyed so idk , the other misleading parts I will fix with a click

is there a big issue so I can fix?

whole map is unbalanced parts this is not novice category

yes

Then moderate?

way too many design issues i can see from start

no

pointless this is not multimap

Should it be a multimap ?

Its just some extra

open block

Then what category is that ? xD

he cant, technical issues

is the custom entity have more stuff than ddnet one?

no dont worry about it

So the only problem that it is not balanced?

even multeasy map is harder than this

Yes but we are talking about your map currently

I want to know exactly what is the issue so I can fix if I can

.

Sure but what is the category then? Undefined?

What do you mean? You mean waiting? This map has way too many bugs and issues It would be better to start over again because theres just tooo many issues ^^ You should look at newly released maps

I am ready to fix them all , no matter the time it will take, just point me

Some people have played the map multiple times and they still enjoy it idk why, they didn’t notice any spike of difficulty or major issues , what are the issues ? I can manage to change

he said it’s unbalanced so it doesn’t fit into any category, some parts are novice some are moderate etc

Then it will fit in [Noderate]

Almost all ddnet maps have easy and hard parts

here the difference is just too big

Even some brutal maps have novice parts

Its just mechanics

also the parts don’t look creative enough

You played star to end?

i can tell by just looking at the preview

Then don’t assume before doing

If you seen some of these parts in another map Tell me

just take the criticism

Sure

Actually I was little angry at the beginning but now I understand you guys were right, I was just over reacting, thanks guys for your patience I might start over or just quit idk

I wasn’t balanced my self because my daughter is sick

dw it’s fine

hope she gets well soon

thanks ❤️

You worked hard, I hope you do better

thanks alot ❤️ you are the first to motivate me

in this server I mean

np my mission

try again

I am working on 1 now

Don’t use this channel for other topic than the real map and stuff related such as feedback
