started this map over a year ago but haven't touched it in ages, now with second wave of corona here i wanna continue developing it

it was tested few times in the past and layout is +- done, needs re-texture and polishing

mid is semi-inspired by sunshine and last by granary and that's about it

what do you think gamers

Oh crap, forgot you dm'd me to look at this. Honsetly the map is looks pretty interesting. Middle, second and the area in between is really cool. It has been a while since I've looked at it but my main feedback is to maybe make it a bit clearer where clipping is (I think there were a few fences and corners that had some weird clipping).

The other point is I don't know if having an entrance into last being open to the skybox is a great idea. I'm sure demos and sollys would love it, but good luck to the defending team, no way they keep their uber.
I think a way to take change last is to "fortify it" give teams more stuff to use to defend, up to you how you do that.

thanks for suggestions. i agree with the clipping and limiting entrance height to last, although i think last is currently fine as it is, so it needs some more testing to make larger changes
