    Hey guys! Today i will talk about an idea to stop Oom forever and also to help create good maps.

    1. Map template
    This flat world will be downloadable via forums and will be pinned on the submit a map section. What this is, is a flat world with a big dome of barrier blocks(At an average map size). The dome will be average map size and will completely stop Oom possibilities, but when the map is on the server people won't see the barrier blocks, making it still immersive and normal looking. There won't be a way to get out of the dome without superior commands.

    2. Map requirements
    There should be a pinned forum post specificly stating these requirements in order for a map to be successfully used;

    •The map should have atleast 4 Buildings
    •The map should have both red and blue spawnpoints surrounded by obstacles or cover to prevent long range spawn kill
    •The map should have reasonable obstacles for players to take cover in
    •The map should not have one spawnpoint higher then the other (e.g dday)
    •The map should not have high up places where camping is prone.

    This would be too much of a hassle. Plus, making a template will only limit map makers.

    What if a really good CoD remake doesn't meet some of the requirements?

    -1. First off, this would create a huge hassle. Second off, this would limit many great maps to be accepted, which may not make our players happy. Also, OOM is why we have the prefix "Map" in the bug reports section. I do not like the "Map Requirements". Also, Camping and long ranged attacks are apart of the gameplay, which make players very happy. Also, what would be the purpose of limiting height of spawn points?

    If maps were publicly tested and patched before they reached the mass servers there would be no more problems.

    This would only limit mapmakers to what they can build.
    As said above, it sounds like a waste of time.

    I like the idea of the template. Map makers are very smart and would figure out how to make it work. This is a great idea for standard work.

    Perhaps one recommendation that I would make is to have small, medium, and large templates.

    Great original idea!

    This is going to limit us, map makers, so I'm not really sure if this is going to work.

    OOM's can also be in the map itself (ex. Cove).
    By blocking all the OOM's with barrier blocks after a map is submitted will take away the whole OOM problem.
    The map template you submitted wouldn't be needed. Plus the fact that map makers are limited, as stated some posts above.

    A template would limit the builder, camping is just a strategy and we can just cover the whole map in barrier blocks anyway.
