Info

Lighttower is a building in the middle of a lava filled ocean with a light beacon rotating on it.
The building is filled with traps.
I meant this map for multiplayer. You can play with bots too, but watching them to killing themselves
is not that fun. With your friends would be a different story I assure.

Lighttower_V2 is the same like Lighttower but without the traps and different item placement (regular arena maybe?).
I meant this to player versus bot matches. It was the hardest part of the map to make the bots play properly (or nearly porperly).
For bigger challenge, play against OpenArena bots, in OpenArena! Trust me.

Original skybox from Hipshot - Grimmnight. Modified version by Martinus - Hellnight.

know bugs: visual and engine bugs (the outside lava make some texture like the floating jumppads disappear, and on Lighttower map the light indicators wont do the proper lights and Idk why).
Sometimes the light beacon stuck and wont rotating. Sometimes this makes teleportating corpses. Yep... teleportating corpses!
Oh and the /noclip console command is broken on the maps. Makes you teleportating. Funny... I bet you will try or already tried it! ;)

No toasters allowed to play this map!

build time: couple of weeks
