This map is in its VERY early stages, just came up with the idea yesterday after messing about creating a few phys_ maps.

The aim of it is sort of a multiplayer JBmod done as a HL2DM map.

It will probably end up either like the TV program Scrapheap Challenge (or Junkyard Wars as the Americans call it) or more towards the game Carmageddon.

There are two sides, the Restance and the Combine. Each have access to a vehicle and lots of parts. You weld the parts (anything from thrusters to engines to chairs to pods to weapons ect) on by using magnets which can only be switched off as a whole atm (not individually yet). Then you race them around a specially made track.

Here are some pics to stop you getting bored of my rambling.

Adding stuff to my jeep (some canisters at the back to add thrust when set off)

The map is full of bugs at the moment and I have just thrown in a crappy track and a jump, but I want to release what I have done so far for two reasons:

1)Find out what sort of vehicles people make so I can design a track around them. So please show screens of vehicles you have made

2)To find out what materials people want adding or more of the current ones to add to their car.

I also have a question about the magnets. Whats the best way to get a button to stay with a specific magnet so it can be turned off by just "using" the magnet but follows it as i attach the magnets to things. If i parent the button to the magnet it just lags behind and causes problems. I

Ok time to go to bed as its 4am :/

You will have to make it yourself :p (not that hard)

Should be lots of other variations aswell, cant wait to see what other people come up with :)
