Truth is that it is very difficult to make a new 5cp map for competitive.

Main reason for this

• It is not difficult to make a good 5cp layout

• It is difficult to make a good 5cp layout that has not already been done

May have forgotten to post a13 & a14 so both are in the same message here.
This (a14) is likely the last version to be posted until after the next 6v6 season (Spring 2024/Season 47). Reason for this is to give admins a stable version, if they would like to include it in preseason cup, and so I can focus on other things while collecting as much data as possible on a14.
