[EmanReleipS]

Is there anything that can be done to improve the performance on this map? It gets really laggy in places with many players, but I'd still love to have it back for another week.

[laboRHEinz]

Personally, I wouldn't recommend spending any further efforts on another edit, because of its other fundamental shortcomings:
http://www.ceonss.net/viewtopic.php?p=3932#p3932

Another, probably the bigger problem is its quasi-linear node layout: you don't have meaningful choices on it other than DM-ing. In fact, it's just another "DM-map in ONS-clothes". Also, the accessibility of the secondary nodes is rather mediocre, hence, the typical gameplay on Rail is that it takes about 2 or 3 minutes for one team to get the opponents' secondaries. The rest of the match is just an endless stalemate between primaries and secondaries, you'll hardly ever see a comeback, unless the defending team gets reinforced massively by joining / leaving / switching - of course, only to have the same deadlock on the other side soon

http://www.ceonss.net/viewtopic.php?p=1678#p1678

never considered it much more than a linear DM obstacle course masquerading as ONS

Don't we have some other, more promising maps to be edited?

Lag is part of life, people should just accept it
