There's a lot to do in this one, so read the signs to get your bearing. You can foot run at any time (an escape scorpion spawns in the garage), but if you want to manta run, you need a teammate's help to clear the flag. There's a giant claw machine over the flag, and the controller for that claw is at the side platform in front of each base. When the controller is stepped on, the claw lifts and mantas can drive through.
This map is loaded with tricky terrain, so if you notice any errors where you can fall through the map or get stuck, taking a screenshot would help me fix it for the final version.

Re: VCTF-Mistral Beta
Whoever, I have the same terrain problems that you are facing...falling through the terrain. May I ask what you are doing to fix it? I really appreciate your work in giving the community new locales to fight in. Perhaps we could collaborate on a project or two.

Re: VCTF-Mistral Beta
The layout kinda reminds me of Torlan... Incredibly fun map... I love the button and cage over the flag... Adds a control zone of interest.... only thing is the button either needs to be about 5 times bigger or make so the guy standing on the button cannot be sniped from the top of the base... didnt get to test whether putting a vehicle on the button would keep it pressed, but that would be kool if it did.
Re: VCTF-Mistral Beta
Wow! This author never ceases to amaze me. Very clever.

Re: VCTF-Mistral Beta
I like the triggers to raise the flag cover too. This is a clever idea. Other than that there seems to be a lot of space to get lost in, which may or may not be good.

Re: VCTF-Mistral Beta
Perty cool map took me forever to find the button when
I did I tried to put a car on it but it doesn't work it's like
when you try and do a manta run and u can't run over the
flag there's a wall there. If you can put a car there that would
be cool.
Keep up the good work.......

Re: VCTF-Mistral Beta
It would be more interesting if placing a vehicle (any vehicle) on top of the button and keep it pressed. It would make this point a strategic battle zone...
Re: VCTF-Mistral Beta
Originally this was possible. However, there's a bug with empty, destroyed vehicles that gets the claw permanently stuck in the up position, and it happens all the time. If I can figure out how to fix that, I'll get rid of the vehicle blocker.
Also, somebody better have noticed the easter eggs by now.

Re: VCTF-Mistral Beta
What about some kind of time delay thing were when you step on it
it stays up for so many seconds or something like that?
Or what about on that Jailbreak map to lower the bridge or raise it you have to
push the button on it each time?
IT would be funny to catch the manta as it goes in like a trap.......
