Spring RTS Engine

"Only" 33? Fuck, that is a lot!

In relation to that, you are aware that if you see a traffic sign that says "33%" that it is actually a degree of only 12?

Btw look at your picture. I would not even be able to enter the ascending slope with my car cause it is so damn steep...

You wouldn't be able to enter it from a flat surface, but a tank would be able to, easily. Moreover a tank from the future would be able to take it on with ease.

That is why tanks have track bases shaped like \___________/.

Realism aside, 33 degrees is not enough for gameplay terms, unless you want to force mappers to stick to very low height differences.. Big height differences can be done, but not with ease.

In OTA, it was very cut and dried, because ota maps had a height difference of like 50 at the maximum. Using spring, a height difference of 300 is really low. Therefore, values used for OTA aren't really any good when it comes to spring.

Fact: Tanks from the future fly.

original dsd:
ExtractorRadius=100;
your map:
extractorRadius = 150,
As I said, bottom right corner this allows you to cover 2 for 1.

Wtf? I explicitly changed that to 100. I remember at the time thinking that 100 was smaller than normal, but it's not like evo uses extractorradius anyway so whatever, and I changed it.

That also explains why you or whoever else mentioned it. Dude I very specifically remember setting it at 100. Welp, all the more reason to unpack it, rename it, and change what you don't like!
