Like I've said in the vents discussion, I think the hardest thing to do is make a multi-level map with Space Station 13 simply because the game is using 2-D graphics.

We can look down, but have no way of knowing there's a hole there.

We can't look up.

Elevators would be really nice if they were sprited right..and could work the same as a shuttle.. If you had one level of sulaco on one z-level and the other floor on another so the elevator is kind of like a shuttle.... Well thats an idea anyway.

Really need multiple ways up/down for the new Sulaco Alpha map..

Those Ladders are a death-camping fest for any alien attempting to climb up. Not being able to see what's there ahead of time is already a huge disadvantage

I'm all for a elevator, staircase, more ladders.. anything.

How about when you near the ladder, able to see what's on the other side of it? just so we know we not climbing into a death trap full of 20 marines with machine guns

Yeah... I don't have mapping experience. I don't have access to the ALPHA's Ground Map.
