Orange is the New Blue...

ANYHOW.

It needs some... Blood all over the place... And a human dead in the middle with a trail.

I have been forbidden from adding more screenshots, 'cuz it's now in the alpha repo and I've started the integration process. So for now you'll have to just enjoy what you've got. ;) I'm also getting new sprites for grass and trees, so it'll look a little different in the final build. Also hey, some things should remain a surprise when y'all finally get a chance to play on it!

Alright I lied, I'm posting another one. This is the last one for a while though. Like a kid in puberty this map has gone through some changes.

It's already integrated into the alpha build, so yes, it's going to replace the Nostromo Z-level completely. You're just gonna have to wait till it's ready!

Luckily they have an alphabet with 26 characters, what a coincidence!

Are there any vents in the orbial drop buildings?

Correct!

However we're not entirely discounting other Z-level maps that might be used for future events but aren't linked to space, like the CentComm Z-level.

There are no vents and no atmos system whatsoever - I'm still debating various methods of quick transportation, however. My two ideas are:

a) a sub-surface Z-level with many tight, twisty cave passages
b) A tunneling ability that lets xenos build strategic warp tunnels from one place to another (limited by probably 2 per map, high costs, high cooldown, probably only for one caste [likely Hivelords])
c) A second "drop pod" shuttle for 4-5 Marines that can be dropped anywhere on the map that has no dense turfs or objects under it, ie. in the desert, river, lake, or in the jungle, but has a very high cooldown, say 15 minutes. There's already one big shuttle that can hold around 25-30 marines, but a second one is probably a good idea to avoid too much bottlenecking

So this map will replace the nostromo when it is used, but games will still happen on the nostromo, right?
