If you (Or a group of builders) create a map which we end up using, the rewards are as follows.
+ $8 - $20 worth of donor credits will be given to the builder depending on how impressive the map is.
- Credits are divided up among the builders, if there is more than one.
+ Any builder who has contributed at least 30% of the total efforts in creating a map will receive the new "Map Maker" title.
+ Credits will be displayed when the server rotates to that map.
http://leopard.hosting/download.php?f=ebnuz&name=Gamemode_BossBattles_Developer_Package.ziphttp://leopard.hosting/download.php?f=wjkii&name=BossBattles_Dev_Requisites.zip - Extract all the Add-on files this zip contains into your add-on directory. Do not place this zip file directly into the add-ons directory, it doesn't work this way.
- Make sure you overwrite all existing brick add-ons, as some brick packs will have inconsistencies with the Boss Battles brick packs, and you must be using the Boss Battles brick packs in order for your map to work properly when it is put on the server.
When making a map, consider this checklist.
+ You need a spawn.
- If you want, you can simply use the spaceship spawn which is loaded with the example map when you start the gamemode.
+ Make sure there are spawnpoints in the arena!
- If you're feeling unsure how to make them, simply duplicate some from the example map.
+ Make sure there is a capture point area!
- It should be placed centrally in the arena, to make it easily accessible.
- You don't have to event it, just place the Capture point brick from the Slayer bricks tab.
+ Layout! Make sure there is no significant areas that a boss couldn't simply jump up to normally.
- Avoid making accessible areas that are isolated from the main body of the map.
+ Boundaries. There should be no ways to slip out of the play area.
+ Make sure there is a Tank Turret!
- Again, you don't have to event it.
- There should be a strategic area for it, and it should not have clear line of sight to the entire arena.
- Optionally, you can also add pirate cannons.
+ Hide chests!
- They should be cleverly hidden, not in plain sight.
+ No physics vehicles!
- These should not be in the map under any circumstances! They are too unpredictable and can break gameplay.
+ Eventing is a plus! Your map will get a higher score if you've already done the essential events.
- The developer pack will allow you to see and use events that are present in Boss Battles. Wrench things around the example map to see what they are needed for.
Once you have completed creating a map, one of the builders should post it here with example screenshots, a link to the bls save file, and a list of credits for the map. (Specify who did how much work)
