It's a good map that gets no love for some reason, I've been saying it needs to be featured lots of times but people say it has issues

The metalspot widget in the map looks "okay" but:
gl.Texture("maps/metal_high.png" ) => that texture is 85 x 85 pixels => problematic.

The problem is that the problems are too random.
Every now and then someone thinks "it always works for me!" but when a match is started likely other players have problems => unplayable.

We really need a "broken" tag to use in place of "special" for maps that are just plain busted. It's not fair to HotStepper and other "special" maps that are geniunely awesome.

You can download it, unzip (it is just renamed .7z archive), edit, pack, re-upload.
The map's license allows for that. (but read its readme.txt)

i remember a discussion about the ground fog and other dumb stuff in the lower areas of this map and maybe correlated framedrops whining.

The fog is very nice but could have its lower boundary moved below playable area. Something could be done to the metalspots widget.

Oh i know! Featuremex to the rescue! Hurr. Now i have two in my todo list.

Redoing the metal map is probably a good idea anyway. Having 7 mexes like that in the start locations is just silly for ZK.
