Something Wicked This Way Comes

My new(ish) map. I've been sitting on it for a while - I just finished it off today. I expect it to be full of bugs, so don't be shy and post them here so I can look at solving them.

The basic idea is that players move between three 'mini-maps' connected by teleporter. To get to the other base from your castle, you must travel through at least one other world. These are a great lake, and some dungeons. I would have liked to add other 'mini-maps', but I got caught up in a newer project, coming soon.

See screenshots below.

Have fun!

Looks great Spazzy; I would expect nothing less

Yay! A map where you're not limited to just one same old map all the time!

Thanks for the comments.

We've had a couple of server issues. Hopefully it will be alright now, fingers crossed.

Wow, looks cool. can't wait to play. and i like the idea of having 3+ worlds...

Revised

• • Fixed issue by which you spawned way up high.
  • Fixed the "Jittery Lake" problem.
  • Added shot limits to SB, GM and L.
  • Tweaked a few variables.

I was thinking about adding a new 'mini-world'... any ideas??

The Great Hall of Hogwarts Castle. Or maybe a whole map of Hogwarts Castle.

Very cool map. Well done.

AVM was going to try to work on something like this. but I dont know if he still is.

I was thinking about something like that, but I was waiting until bzworkbench came out. If you want to add on to it, go ahead. It'll probably be better than anything I could ever make.

Anyways, great map-again. Another mini-map could be a dense forest with many trees that players have to navigate through.

Hogwarts Castle would be fun. you could have WW's firing now and then. (Put a faulty wand somewhere!). Perhaps some underground place, where you could infiltrate without a teleporter.

great map. i like the eerie atmosphere of the lake especially. you can swear something sinister has happened there recently. i'm with muffin about the dense forest.
