Aerial - Training map

Welcome to the airshot practice map! Practice different types of airshots as any class!

IMPORTANT!

In order to play the map, you MUST enter these commands into console (without quotas): "sv_cheats 1; mp_teams_unbalance_limit 30; mp_disable_respawn_times 1; sv_allow_point_servercommand always; mp_restartgame 1"

Explanation of the commands:

• sv_cheats 1 - Enables most console commands
• mp_teams_unbalance_limit 30 - No balance. Without this, bots would spawn in red team too.
• mp_disable_respawn_times 1 - No respawn time. This isn't necessary, but the bots will respawn much quicker when it's enabled.
• sv_allow_point_servercommand always - This allows the bots to spawn.
• mp_restartgame 1 - Restarts the match.

Highly recommended commands, although not necessary:

• tf_weapon_criticals 0 - No random crits. Highly recommended for Juggle practice.
• tf_use_fixed_weaponspreads 1 - Shotguns use a fixed pattern. Useful if you... want to use Shotgun.

Once you hop in red team (blu is reserved for bots), you will be able to practice all kinds of airshots ranging from:

• Juggle - Launch the enemy to the air and land those sweet airshots!
• Vertical - Want to practice airshots on enemies that only move vertically? This is for you.
• Launch - Vertical, except it's horizontal. Two different options to choose from: left side (from arrival position) is easier, right side is more difficult. Disable or Enable them, however you wish!
• Attack - The ideal simulation of Soldiers and Demomen rushing you. Enemies are launched to you and you have to kill them, otherwise they will fall to their death.
• Random - All of the above... well... except Juggle.
• Old - Unreleased version of the map, much less developed. Mixture of Attack and Launch.

You can customize the experience by:

• Giving your weapon permanent critical hits, so your airshots (almost) always instakill. Not recommended for Juggle. Found at spawn.
• Making the bots jump all the time, which often results in higher difficulty. Highly recommended for Juggle, but also works at Old. Found at spawn.
• Adding and removing bots. Found at Launch, Attack, Random and Old.

This map briefly supports multiplayer. If you want to play with your friends, you have to be in the same practice room. This is due to the limitations of the map, I couldn't get around fixing it. Go to a portal like you would normally do and your friend(s) should go into the "No Bot" portal, which is a portal to the practice rooms, except it won't spawn more bots. Another limitation is that if someone dies (somehow), all the bots will be kicked and spawns will be disabled. Just repeat the process above to fix this.

With that being said, have fun practicing airshots! This map is by no means perfect, but I'll try to improve where I can. Feedback is always appreciated as long as it's constructive.
