Military compound Map - LF feedback (spoiler ship designs)

[flashman]

Hi all

I have just put together my new military compound map. it uses custom submaps for all the different parts.

It is a very rough picture because it is made from about 30 screenshots.

They can be found and commented on in this thread

Currently this is the 80x80 version for battleships and carriers. If it works OK I will downscale it for the different craft.

Any feedback +/_ please have at it and i will adjust accordingly before final release in the map pack.

I'm guessing from the stunned silence that everyone hates it or everyone likes it!

I have created 4 versions depending on ship size.

The maps can be found here.

Edit

I think everyone's still just staring at their screens, mouths gaped at the pure awesome that had been witnessed by their slimy, jelly-filled ocular sockets.

download this rar file, and unpack it in your xenonauts\assets folder - merge with any files that pop up.

Game has a level editor that is basically drag and drop with different categories. There is also a more complex submap editor for creating buildings etc... but this takes learning.

check this thread for how to extract the tiles and for link to instructions

Minor nitpick almost certainly not worth fixing: that rifle/pistol range is a serious safety hazard and would never be placed where it is.

Wow this is awsome.

Indeed, its why a placed a second wall around it, just to prove how dangerous it is.

I might make one facing SW so that I can alternate and avoid accidents

I'm to afraid to merge anything that comes into contact with assets folder

[thothkins]

take a backup of the assets folder to keep you safe. In practice, I've had very, very few issues using the mods that are posted here.
