Idea CTF Spawn Box Update

Should we update the design?

A majority of in CTF spawn signs are outdated, so no matter which one we choose all the spawns need to get fixed at some point.

@DeZilla did a redesign with doorways moved and better signage space.

Default:




And Dez tested some color variations.








Spreadsheet - current statuses of map submissions as of today, look at all the missing spawn boxes

The template will be a stonebrick/gray glass version similar to the old one.
Since all the outdated signage needs to be fixed anyways, I thought this might be a good change.
I'm helping configure maps right now and would like to see if we can do this. I'll use the old one if I don't get feedback.

[Go like something on @DeZilla 's made to credit him, sorry for post sniping, I just need quick feedback]

 

Already got ya covered.

I'm more asking about the shape of the new one. The exits are on the sides instead of at the bottom. There is also better space for signage.

EDIT: Dez permed me, we've got a default look now

I was figuring no one on current staff wanted to update them manually, so I was going to do the leg work for you guys. There's some world edit wizardry that would make it quick.

Creators can still edit it however they want. But the way it's been done is that they take a default and reskin it. I'm offering a new default. Do we want a new default or nah?

And I like the feedback, thank you.

 

Yeah, most of the current custom boxes still use the old default box shape and the most efficient way to replace signage is
1. Fix signage in one default box.
2. Replace everything except for the signs with air.
3. //copy. //paste -a
It would literally just change the corner signs.

And I was thinking about just copypasting a new box into old maps and readding the map creator.

For new maps we can give a choice between new box and old box. The newer ones are easier to reskin into custom designs.

 

Alrighty I'm gonna go ahead and make a map with both boxes/updated signage and give a crap ton of people access so they can copypaste.


Keep giving feedback, if someone is super opposed to having more than one choice i'd like to know.

A crap ton of them still say MCPVP and have MCPVP ranks. They need to be updated anyway. It takes just as much time to put in a new box as it does to update the old box.

 

Oh, I meant the ones in rotation.

 

Progress:
Signage streamlined and updated for new boxes. B0s helped proofread.
Fewer signs, just as much info, fancy colors.

Spoiler: Signs in new boxes

- Players will be able to pick whichever box they prefer, new or classic.
- Boxes are customizable.
- Easy copypaste signs are available if only signs need updating.
- Boxes are pre-configured for sign system maps.
