    I have a question: what is the best way to test a map (other than loading it in sandbox mode)?
     
  8. sandbox is the best and only way

    the best way is playing on the map on a public server, like I'm doing now with mine ^^

    I take it you have to ask a server owner if he/she will try your map?

    I have never made a map before. How do you get an empty map file so you can make your map from scratch?

    Download Gimp or Paint.net. File -> New -> Width = 150 height = 120 -> use the colours from here: https://wiki.kag2d.com/wiki/Map

    Build map as per lavalord's guide.

    If anyone is gain enough ask kaizo to put your map on our server and get some feedback from players.
     

  15. Or you can test it in swordfight with a bunch or derpy AI knights, If you know how to do it.

    Just go to the Base folder, then the Rules folder, then the Swordfight file, then open the map cycle file with NotePad and replace the 2 maps with the directory of your map. Have fun!

    P.S. you can also spawn a huge army of knights but I'll leave it up to you to figure it out ;)

    Haha, all CTF maps there. Good that other gamemodes are accepted as well. I'll post my map in few days, however it is practically ready. Nice contest!

    I wanted to make a viable asymetrical map and I think I did it, I tested this since the contest began and I think the map is pretty balanced now (even on competitive side since we did some friendly matches on this map with FAITHs).​
