Notable Features:

• *Supports large servers (60+ players): Optimization, Player spawns, and a large map with a variety of rooms

• Inspired by Planet Christophsis:

• • Inspired by the Star Wars the Clone Wars planet of Christophsis, this map includes two enterable towers across from each other on the main road and a crystal-based envrionment.

• Spawn Area:

• • Spawn inside a structure with multiple exit points to prevent funneling to your death
• • Underground tunnel access and direct access to the upper level of the outpost walls
• • The terminal to open the main gate is on top of the wall

• General Map Layout:

• • Two opposing factions, one with a ray shield and one without, and two enterable towers - one for each side.
• • One side of the map is large and open for easy navigation of vehicles with a few areas for players to be able to hide and ambush
• • The other side of the map is much more narrow and difficult to navigate effectively with larger vehicles, providing cover for troops
• • There are a few alternate routes to reach the opposing faction's base.
• • Snipers will have a huge advantage with such an open area, and open space is great for vehicle use (Air transports, dogfighting, vehicle vs vehicle, etc.)
• • Multiple paths to ambush sniping locations

• Towers:

• • Lobby level includes: A reception area, dining area, break room, bathrooms, elevator
• • Upper level: A high enough level to provide snipers with great protection. Includes breakable windows on either side of the tower for assaulting / defending the outpost it is nearest to.
• • Roof: Just enough space for an experienced LAAT / Air Transport pilot to land or hover over to deploy troops. Provides decent cover for troops on the roof.

• Outposts:

• • AKA the Spawn Area and Opposing Faction Base, each outpost includes: Large open space for troop preparation and deployment, two covered areas, designated spawn structures with tunnel and wall access, 2 accessible stairways up the walls, access terminals to open/close the main gates to the base on the walls, and an immersive skybox making the outpost appear even larger.
• • The "Opposing Faction Base" has a ray shield surrounding it which can be enabled and disabled from the generator terminal located in a covered area.

• Environment:

• • Certain props are editable by high-ranking staff, in-case redesign is necessary
• • Crystal-based

*Note: I have done what I can do while keeping the "Open Area" for pilots and large events still open. Open areas & terrain will always cause FPS drop, as will the amount of props & npcs that players have to register.

**Note 2: This map does NOT include NPC AI nodes to navigate as it was not included with the commision of the map. Therefore, this map is primarily PvP.

Author's Note:

• This is my third map release.

• I have a lot of experience building, working with Wiremod, and hosting events / simulations for very large StarwarsRP servers. As such, I understand how hard it can be to find a "good" map to play on that won't lag players and will still be decent.

• For that reason, I will be creating a series of "[Event Maps]" for everyone to enjoy.
