I played TA on this map.

Nothing for tanks - too step. Even kbots need a lot of time walking uphill.

I don't know if/how ZK handles map speed differently, but crabe-players will surely have fun.

The remaining 24% probability consists of him meaning Tech Annihilation. :)

Tech Anni is different. You can morph your com to T1.5 eco and make more space-efficient energy drillers + 2.5x (was 3x) better mexes.

In ZK you may get really good wind on these hills (especially there). while in BA/TA it is hard to place them with this highmap (less slope tollerance afair).
I don't like most other wind-maps - wind gens are ugly :)

Some kind of automatic tagging? Many, many maps have been tagged special since the very beginning.

I felt like mashing buttons, so i featured this map.

I like this map's heightmap and texture, in all their ruggedness. Vehicle pathing is surprisingly good, I could see myself going lv on this map in 1v1.

The ZK metalmap can be tweaked with lua. This map doesn't even have metalspots in its texture, so the layout can be literally anything.

In any case tho, metalspots shouldn't be added to the hills. They already give a significant advantage to bots; adding metal to them would remove any chance of vehicles being a viable 1v1 choice here.

Perhaps a variant of this with more mexes would be good. Right now I see a lot of stalling and very rarely more than 20m/s. I really like the texture and heightmap but that metal spot layout seems to leave the map with bad play in ZK unless each mex is 5m/s, which would lead to porcing the mexes.

Actually it has "1v1: yes", because

quote: I've now re-tagged it as land hills 1v1 (judging from 10x10, should play about proper).

Should change?

I'm not sure it ever came up in 1v1 either though, so tagging chickens:false.

This is the only official map that still needs tagging. Fix iiiit!
