KA Mapping. Kill The Heresiarch

From korax

Overview

In Kill The Heresiarch match the first fragger becomes a powerfull Heresiarch monster and other players fight with him to destroy him and become.a new Heresiarch. In other words, KTH is very similar to deathmatch and all the DM mapping recommedations fit KTH as well.
However, there are couple of nuances. Firstly, Heresiarch is larger in size than common player, thus, if you are using original DM map for KTH mode keep in mind that Heresiarch won't be able to enter narrow passages and those with low ceiling. Secondly, Heresiarch has all his weapons given at once from the beginning, thus he does not need to search the map for weapon pickups (he needs ammo though).

Heresiarch Spawn Spots

Heresiarch Spawn Spots allow to define exact location(s) at which Heresiarch should appear. Their usage is optional. When player is about to transform into Heresiarch, game checks if there are HSSs on the map. If there is one, Heresiarch will appear there all the time. If there are several HSSs, the one is chosen closest to last player position. If there are no HSSs on map, Heresiarch is spawned at the same location where player resided a moment before transformation.

Heresiarch Spawn Spots can be used to design a map where Heresiarch is allowed to wander only in some particular area(s). They also could be very useful on maps with lots of places which are too narrow or have too low ceilings for Heresiarch, to avoid situations like when Heresiarch appears stuck in the wall or low ceiling and unable to move.
