"Just hours after the New Mombasa Slipspace event, the streets of Mombasa lie in ruin."

Domain is based on Turf about 4-5 hours after Regret's jump at the end of Halo 2's Metropolis level. The sun has set, and rain falls from the sky. Debris from the jump litters the streets. Malfunctioning signs are found here and there.
While this map is near-identical to Turf layout-wise, aesthetically, it is slightly different. Now there is debris everywhere, with burning cars and overturned crates. The Warthog is now tipped over and needs to be flipped. The Wraith it had destroyed just before the Slipspace jump is destroyed and is not drivable.
Although it IS NEARLY identical, there are some modifications. For one, there are now several office buildings which are able to be explored, most notably near the ODST pod, where a long, narrow, twisting set of stairways lead to a rocket launcher, and near the burning Wraith, where a flamethrower sits near a bank of decimated computer systems.

Slightly Outdated pics (My apologies for linking them, Halomaps is making me wait 4 days before posting images, this will be fixed soon):

-It's going to be all stock weapons/bipeds/whathaveyou, but with some custom things, such as the Medkit dispenser, added in.
-It's an animated scenery Phantom (NOT AI) with a searchlight replacing the turret. It flies around the map and shines a bright light on the ground.
-Yes.

Looks REALLY good. The phantom flying overhead and the health dispenser look really interesting. The BSP could use a little more detail though. Anyways, I'll be looking forward to the release.

Yeah, Higuy offered me the tent from Turf, which was ripped from H2. Once he sends it to me, I'm going to replace the current one with that.

Good news, everyone!

DEEhunter offered to bake the lightmaps for Domain, as soon as I can get a final build of the BSP ready. Currently all I'm waiting on is Higuy's Turf tent and I can ship a build off to him.

I found that I got it from extinction. Rip it, its from the tags/scenery folders, not sure what name but im pretty sure its pretty obvious.

You can cure a derp, but not the herps.

Me likes the look of this, but keep in mind the medkit dispenser will make some lag.

Nope. There's nothing to make it lag. There are NO scripts involved, just a device_control which spawns an effect (which, in tun, spawns a medkit). It syncs online, and because there's no device_machines hooked up to it, there's no need for a biped kill script.

ok then let's have an experiment
1. go on any multiplayer match that has 15 other players on a semi-detailed map
2.press T
3.type some words
4.press ENTER
Chances are, if you don't have a very good computer, you can get lag
no scripts involved.
no biped kill script.

Not trying to be mean, just speaking for those that don't have very good computers.

Actually, the box isn't even 15 polies. It dispenses an INVISIBLE medkit (that way players don't see a flying white box come out of a computer screen on the dispenser), so the game doesn't even need to RENDER anything.

Plus, there's only 2 dispensers on the map.
E: Whoever wants the dispenser, I'm releasing it:
http://files.filefront.com/medkit+dispenserzip/;13913871;/fileinfo.html
Quote: This is the Medkit Dispenser based off the dispenser seen in Halo 3: ODST.
What this is is a device_control which, when activated, shoots an invisible medpack at the player.
To install, open up your .scenario tag in Sapien, then open up the + sign next to "Devices", then go to "Device_Controls", click the "Edit Types" button and navigate to scenery/medkit dispenser/medkit dispenser.
Right-click where you want your dispenser to be, and one will be placed there.
Compile your map and walk to where your dispenser is ingame. It should prompt you to press your "Action" button (default is "E"). Pressing it will dispense an invisible medkit.

If you use this in a map, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE give credit to English Mobster.

THANKS TO:
Hunter for the basic model!

Hi Mobster, i tried to put your map on my dedi-server rented at gameservers. This does not work because you have put a "space" in the map-name: between "domain" and "final". There should be an underline. Please do something, this map looks realy great! I want to play this on the internet! Ty for your great work!

Put quotations around the map name, so it looks like "domain final".
