this is your map's testing channel! Post map updates here and remember to follow our mapper rules: https://ddnet.org/rules
Even in map preview it looks very repetitive and plain
😢
It's still too similar to the previous version. I can tell you changed it and you improved it, but it's still not good enough to be releasable
Some issues are still there
Why would you add a solo before the start, in a solo map ?
Do you understand the point of having a solo (aka noob filter) ?
I could not notice the error due to the fact that the chat from the previous version was deleted
The entities are still spammed
Try to map in a way so you needn't use that many tiles
I can only reduce the passages in some places, but this will make the map a little more complicated
Why use deep ?
Quite repetitive
No, you still don't understand the problem
Making tight corridors won't solve it
I'm not only talking about the aesthetic aspect of having that many special tiles
It just doesn't make sense, it's not comfortable to read and to play, it's too crowded with useless tiles
Rearrange your parts, connect them so you don't have to use those tiles
Is there a reason for those shields ?
why do you ask if you know the answer yourself
I know the answer, but I'm asking it to you
what's the point of that?
So you can fix that lol
I know, but it depresses me that this chat will be deleted, and again I will not be able to look at my mistakes
I rose that question so you might think of those shields and how useful they are, so you can understand yourself (or provide me a reason)

chats not getting deleted they store here
Avoid mapping too close to the map borders
You needn't fill the entire "box"
but why? what is the problem?
question mark : what's the point of those areas circle : too huge and pointless parts
I don't think the parts should have any sense at all
Don't spam kill tiles all around the map
Then you won't even be able to have a releasable map
Now, about the design, the hookable and the unhookable are too similar. The teleport isn't even marked. Nobody can tell those darker squares are kill tiles
Don't spam entities marking like that, look at recent maps (I should make a wiki page that gathers everything, I don't have examples to give right now)
That's it, please stop strangling me, I won't create maps anymore
Rounded or not rounded ? Be consistent
You shouldn't take it that way
I can't take it any other way when my card is not approved for the second time
I'm sorry for not throwing kisses and happy faces, I'm only going straight to the point (I'm not mad or being angry at you)
"second time" is fine, you can't expect to get your first attempt to be the map of the year
Mapping takes time. We can tell you are a beginner, but you have to learn what to do and what not to do. It starts by not making the same mistakes from your previous maps, play around, become a better player and look at the existing maps
I wonder how long it took you to make that map here
It's very hard to get a good map done in less than a month (it still depends on the game style, how detailed the design is, the length of the map...)
Problem is people trying to make map asap to get release but not to improve it and then have fun on it
i had made map in 3 days
Top left : the platform is too small Removing the jetpack is useless (you could leave the infinite jump too)
but it's not first map and not second map . Also i was very lucky creating creative parts . But that's not all i need to fix many parts in it that took also some days .
I made a map in 5 hours (design included), but it's rare and it requires to be experienced
how soon will this chat be saved in "https://ddnet.tw/testlogs" ?
Most of the shields are useless. You should try to make use of the weapons instead of removing them instantly
As soon as the testing channel is gone from discord
