I've often had the idea of making sort of an oil rig map, while the original plans called for KotH, i've tried to find a way to turn it into a desertfortress style CP map (where both center points must be controlled before the final point is open). I had one plan which would create an underwater tunnel network beneath the main rig but scrapped it when it became too compacted and boring. Since then, the idea's been on the backburner since I can't figure out how to make it better.

I've had a second oil rig idea, rather than being a single platform, my other plan was to make a very vertical 3-stage attack/defend CP, modeled after a real life oil rig like you find in the gulf (none of these ideas have anything to do with the spill by the way). There were several issues there that didn't come to life. But the idea was to pull up at the bottom on a ship (CP_corperation style) and scale the bottom of the platform to get to part 2. Then, you'd go through the main engine rooms and whatever indoor areas are on an oil platform. The final stage would be the top deck, with the final cap being a missile mounted on the top of the platform.

Another idea I had was to make sort of a water-treatment facility to be used as a CTF map, with a base on both sides of this large rectangular and open area with giant turbines and such. I've stopped working on that one too, couldn't figure out where I was going with it.

Generally, when I make maps in SDK, I usually make KotH or Arena maps, since i'm a big fan of small, simple maps, so my ideas usually don't work for theville's inerests, but feel free to go on those if you want.

This is hard to be cool and suave while being informative at the same time. Goddamn my coolness.
In my experience, common sense isn't too common.
