Zapk's Disease

Disease is a Game Mode where one person is selected as "Patient Zero." This person must infect healthy players by walking up and activating them. If you catch the disease, your new goal is to infect other players for some easy points. The goal for the survivors is to make it to the helicopter that will come and land on a rooftop. It's as simple as that, yet myself and others have been ~~testing~~ playing for hours - every round just as fun as the first.

The Game Mode is developed by me and is currently still being developed. Bugs are bound to be found, please report them!

I'm loving the layout in the OP, it looks pretty cool with the images to the side.
Good luck! I'd volunteer to be a tester, but I don't have the time available :(

It was good. I had a lot of fun.
I would still want to work on the build with it's boundaries.
I may just work on building terrain around the area, extending the roads through it to make the boundaries pretty.

I have some suggestions, if you don't mind

You could add a mode where it isn't apparent who is infected, and it doesn't announce who patient zero is. I think it'd be an interesting mechanic, kind of like TTT.

I feel like too much of the game is "all the infected are dead. wait for everybody to get into the heli." Is there really a point to this? I think if all the infected are dead, it should either restart or spawn infected bots to get afkers/slowpokes.

Seems fun, i'm going to join to try it out!
