Pretty fun looking map, I like the pneumatic tubes.

I love the idea of moving between spawns with air tubes like in Portal 2.
I hope this map will be added one day.

add the summer tag dude

My bots wont move even after typing nav_generate in the console. Any way for you to fix this?

My US East server is running this map
connect 104.223.92.98:19011

Yeah the navmesh just... doesn't exist

JESUS THIS MUST BE BIGGER THEN ENCLOSURE

Can you give me the server IP because it won't work its says amp is an unknow command.

get a better pc

I crashed when trying to play this map

are there any servers that run this?

how do i vote to make this official? because it would be strange not to make it official, its that good. :)

my godness, this is the best map I ever played, it is super creative and beautiful.

next update should add this!

A real fun, beautifull looking and long payload map.

Will take some time to learn the map but it will be fun.

how do u use it?

Update released today:

Changelog from pl_rocketravine_b5 to b6
*1. Added bot support will full nav mesh.
*2. Fixed door on upper level of BLU's second spawn, which wouldn't unlock until BLU made it up the hill. This now unlocks with the spawn room as it should.
*3. Added some more player clips to potentially "sticky" geometry.
*4. Added a stairwell & metal/health room nearby D for easier access to platforms from the control point area.
*5. Removed one of the ladders near D that was kind of in the way.
*6. Moved a few props around.
*7. To reduce fall damage, added an opening in the railing in the balcony that the shorter set of tubes leads to after point C.
*8. Split up the large metal/ammo box by point D into two medium ones, one outside and around the corner and one inside the stairwell sideroom.

noice, just awesome! Nice work! #gra8 m8 8/8

There is definitly a lack of Australium delivering levels, so I would like to see another installed

@ Aury
I chose to use the rocket from sd_doomsday since it was equipped with animations. The older team-colored rocket model is much larger and without any animations or associated fx, which would be much harder to work with. However, reskinning the rocket to feature red colors instead of yellow isn't out of the question, thank you for the suggestion!

cool map

um, hate to be a stickler, but the yellow rocket is either team's. dustbowl contains a texture for a red rocket, so i'd reccomend using that texture instead of the nuetral rocket type, but, it's up to you.

@ICS (Part 3)
Actually, I see you meant BLU's second spawn now, which is what I guess you meant by BLU's first "forward" spawn. Sorry for the confusion. Yes, thank you for pointing this out to me. The door trigger was accidentally left disabled until BLU makes their way up the hill (this is the way it was in a previous version, and forgot to update it). This will be fixed up in the next version.

@Hippo
I used nature/water_coast02. Also, because of the bug that ICS reported I think I will probably be releasing the next version to fix that up and include bot support. This will probably be out within the next few days (tomorrow seems likely).

with the beach ball

also, what water did you use for the red base area?

@ICS (part 2):
I'm aware of the movement on ladders is wonky, but from testing so far they haven't had a negative impact on gameplay yet that I can see. The ladders & tubes are bit expiremental additions at the moment, and I may look for ways to improve their functionality based on player feedback. Sorry that it isn't the kind of map for your server. This map's layout was organized in the style of other custom longform payload maps I'm a fan of, like cashworks, swiftwater, and cranetop. (19 sec avg walk time for BLU, a little under 10 sec avg walk time for RED to get from their respective spawns to the control points, without teleporters, obviously). Depending on player feedback I may make layout changes to make walk times even shorter, but I'm pretty happy with it at the moment. I have no plans for making a new map at this time as I am still developing this one.

@ICS:
Thanks for the feedback! Not sure what you are talking about with the doors. All the doors have unique names and are fully functional as far as I can tell. The grate-doors on the upper level all open once setup time is complete, and don't close after that until the next round begins. So I'm not sure what you mean by "people couldn't get out of the base through upper door and vice versa." You'll have to describe that in more detail for me to be able to look into it.

@Lucky:
The TF2Maps.net server is usually pretty populated when they are hosting events, but pretty empty otherwise. I'm not sure about other heavily populated servers of ther than the one I mentioned since (-TN-) Payload Rotation is one of the few servers I play on.

@Hippo:
No worries! A new version will come out once I have had sufficient feedback from this version. However, I'm actually working on the nav now and can release that file seperately as soon as its finished, just remember when the new version comes out (which will include the nav embeded with the bsp) to delete the old .nav file. Won't take too long to get that done.

You have first blu forwards spawn doors somehow named with same name or something. Some people couldn't get out of the base through upper door and vice versa at some point. You should not use ladders, because they don't work properly in TF2. Use ramps instead or something else than them. Player movement in ladders is really fast and wonky.

You surely put a lot of work to this map and it has nice ideas but it's not something that i as a server owner would run on regularely. We tested this map and some of the routes are really long way to forward lines and the map is quite large. Perhaps your next map will be something better. Good luck!

not to be pushy, but when do you expect the next update to be released? i really wanna play with bots... :/

Jee

I checked out the server on TF2Maps. It is a good server, but barely anyone plays on it. Any others you know that are well populated?

Payload Rotation, huh. I'll look it up. Your a cool guy, Danbo, glad you helped. Contact me when you make a new map, and I will be there to check it out.

Thanks for the help, Lucky

Nice map
This would be a perfect addition, cause there is to little Payload maps

VALVE PLZ ADD DIS!

Its a bit too large for a official payload map but overall pretty good.

看起来很具有逼格

You silly people, it's a payload map.

))))

Awesome, bout time we got another special delivery map

Another map on this?

Woah!

I thought i've never seen the day.

Good

OMFG ADD THIS NOW

Valve quality stuff right here

This NEEDS to be added!

this needs to be added

Looks cool.
