Description:
I wanted to get into mapping business, but before creating original maps I need some practice. I tough about Soldat and what map could be fit KAG gameplay. CTF Maya could work out in my opinion, so I started from there. You can find overview of the original here. Full name of my map is Soldat Maya, because Maya name was taken already by some TDM map.

Layout of the map is pretty much 100% copy of original. I only fine tuned some parts, so you can run from one spawn to another without building ladders (early rush is a option). I also added 3-tile thick layer of bedrock at bottom to avoid creating bottomless pits. Name and version of the map can be seen in server browser.

Placing of the rock is very random - mostly brush and spray playing on my side. Big amount of rock can be found behind spawn (mostly in upper corners of the map). This could be changed if it doesn't work out. I'm not sure about map size, this can be changed in later version.

Map was edited in GrafX2 - I still feel bit rusty when working with this program.

Anyway I'm looking for feedback and critique.

 

What an excellent idea! I'm looking forward to more Soldat remakes. :)

 

The problem with Soldat maps is that they were designed with jetpack in mind. Some are very vertical, so in the KAG you would end up with a huge amount of ladders/trap bridges.

I'm more looking for testing this map and maybe fixing some things. I already have some ideas, but I would prefer some feedback first.

 

Yes. Yes. Soldat.
