One thing that I noticed was missing from Wire-construct and this map is doors. How about a security room that has the ability to lock down different parts of the map? The room itself is seperate and can be accessed by anyone and cannot be completely sealed for balance issues.

I'm new to some of these more technical terms, so I may not understand some stuff at first. So by "gatespawn" do you mean a file that makes stargates appear by default on the map? I'd also like to mention nobody responded to my question about why the map was rated dangerous on garrysmod.org. Can anyone tell me why?

This happens. It's just some assholes that have nothing better to do with their lives but report for stupid things to make people think the popular downloads are dangerous.
In my opinion, Garry or the mods need to approve these ratings before they show up. Or, have a reason it was warned shown by ALL instead of just Garry.

A larger water area, and some underground water filled tunnels and rooms would be cool. Maybe a underground water tunnel to the dev room and then a forcefield preventing the water from entering the room.

Do you have any plans on making a underground room that's only accesible by train? Would be awesome!

I Agree , but we need a secret room that has a button what can flood the whole train system. Maybe admin only room but yeah.

You can make a room Admin Only. Just build you your own admin room, and I'm talking Gmod.
Get you like Anti-Noclip and a Keypad that only admins will know, AdvDupe it, and wolya, an Admin Room.
This saves the mapper the trouble of building an admin room. :)

A gatespawner is basically a file that tells the stargate auto-place script where to put stargates, ring transporters, and related props.

A gatespawner would be great! I'd really appreciate that.

It's quite tricky. But the main thing is to make sure both wheel bases are Axised to whatever they're sitting on that's part of the train.

I've pretty much stopped train construction. Everytime I try, it's a laggy mess. :P

Ever tried making a train that "slides" along the track, not roll. You wouldn't need phx for that, but it would be awesome

Anyway, you said you would be done blackops? That was two weeks ago.

I can give you an Adv. Dupe of my Phx Train if you want. It hasn't ever derailed before. At least not because of its own instability, that is. And I'm not saying that it's unstble either. It's basically very good is what I'm traing to say.

Hey black, where's V5? It's been two weeks man! You said it would take that long to finish... two weeks ago.

You could use teleports like on wireconstruct.

-Train goes around flatgrass lake too.
-Turntables(one above and one underground)
-Deeper flatgrass lake.
-Removed construct lake
-More lights in the train tunnels
-Submarine building room underground
-A water tunnel that connects the submarine room with the lake.
-A not so special 3dskybox
-Small fixes like texture alignment.

Well, buy the looks of it, the map may not be released any time soon...

I'm sorry to say but something is really messed up in the map causing it not to compile correctly. When I can figure out what's wrong, the map will be released. For now, this map is being put on hold...

Might help if you post the error.
"Map has no textures!"
Nothing in compile log (I tried compiling too.) plus when you look at the compiled BSP in Ented or something, it has no entities..at all.
