Hey
I recently started learning hammer to hopefully make some maps for the server and this is my first attempt. It might need some refinement, but i hope you like it so far :)

Hello mate,

nice to see a new map maker :)

Some tipps for the beginning:

1) whenever you edit a map you need to give it a new name. Otherwise players who already downloaded it cant join the new version
2) keep an eye on all camp spots, they should be reachable by two ways to keep it balanced
3) add me on steam for map testing :)

I've seen this minor error (missing texture):

And this spots look like a problem (overpowered camp spots):

More feedback coming after testing!

Hi there, i had a look at your map inside hammer and so far everything looks good no leaks etc.

Only thing i would suggest is that you optimize your map since i see no atm, I would suggest you add some Area portals/Func detail and fade props. Have a look here for more info!

replaced the old version on both servers for testing :)
 
This might be the final version. A spot has been nerfed, a couple of props has been changed to avoid glitches and walls at the secret room has been added.

Update: I decided to make the map lighter, so people dont have to use flashlight as much.
