I liked how you used fields here, good job.
However, in your next map could you please
make it less CPU heavy? Having, that many
drones all spawn at once is very CPU heavy.
If you off-set the spawning on multiple gate
ways it would take up less CPU.

Are you kidding? Are we even talking about the same map? This map isn't CPU intensive. It's a pwnd map by far.

After the drones come out, and you kill them
all, he has the gateway set to 'emit' them ALL
AT THE SAME TIME, so there is like 50+ drones
emitted at the same time and there is a black
box around them, then when they blow up. . .
Another lag spike.

The black box was discussed here.

ok so i saw the entire 1st page of your formum page and watched the video AND read the video's desciption... and i will say bravo to the video time :) i also kind of agree,but almost anything makes lag in this game on any computer,i put the drone delay on 8(it was about 3,200 in the beggining) thinking it would just make a horde,not some spammed out drone that looks like it is one.

If you knew this was a problem when playing
the map, why did you not open it in the map
editor, and fix it before uploading? Maps that
are submitted should be tested and fixed at
least a few times before uploaded.
