[CONTEST] The Last Command

Well, well.....a pleasant surprise, this is. What we have here is a duel map. Ah, but no ordinary duel map. I can see some epic duels happening in the future.

This map consists of three sections, each separated by a door. It is the perfect size for a good, intense duel. And to make it even more realistic, the author has made the environment partially destroyable. Way to use those entities!

The architecture was well built, and fit with the theme. The colors also blended well (I especially liked the neon glows). I can't use dynamic glow, but I can only imagine how much it would enhance the atmosphere.

Everything else aside, what really made this map stand out to me was the scripted doors. Scripts are a rarity, but this map made good use of them. When the doors open, they release jets of steam from the corners as a lock-type mechanism releases. Nice touch! I also noticed that you can't open more than one door at a time. Good idea, as it keeps the fighting area down to a manageable size.

Oh yeah, one more thing. The source files for everything are included, so if you want to check out the mechanics at work here, you're free to do so!

The only downer is that it runs just a tad choppier than most maps. However, I would personally overlook that to have an epic duel. For all you duelers out there, this is one map to snatch.
