Zero-G Basketball

Description
An arena for the fictional game "Zero-G Basketball". There is actually an intended way to play (see below), but at the end of the day, it's a big open space with no gravity, 2 goals and a ball, so i'm sure you can make up your own if you want.

The pitch is zero-G, and has an inbuilt scoring and ball-retrieval system. It is connected to the rest of the stadium by automatic airlock-style doors. As soon as 5 goals are scored by either side, the doors invert, allowing the players to exit. The game can be reset by a button in the janitors room at the bottom of the map.

The rest of the arena contains seating, changing rooms and other viewing areas, toilets, and several access tunnels. It contains functional vending machines, multi-stop elevators, several TVs showing the match within, and 3 bars manned by NPCs. A janitor also patrols and maintains the arena. Should the ball go missing from the pitch, the janitor will replace it; if the doors to the pitch are broken, they'll repair them. You can of course kill the janitor, but you'd be ill advised to; they will NOT respawn.

The map can be found in "other" as "zgbasket". It requires no additional content, and is, of course, noded.

"Official" Zero-G Basketball:
In order to play the game as it was originally envisaged, you'll need to install Ragmod: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=972513789&searchtext=ragmod
You can then ragdolize and hold left and right click to fly around superman style (do NOT use the actual option for flying). Now you need to make it so you can grab the ball. Change the "Maximum weight for grabbing items" to 1000, and "Ragdoll item grip" to 800. Now you can use shift to grab the ball (shift toggles, you don't need to hold it), but your grip should be loose enough to allow tackling.
