    I took into account what you said and hopefully this version works!

    This one alongside surf_depths will be added at some point today, and the delivery system will have 25,000 waiting for you each.

    Edit: Surf_Island is also being added so Bunz will receive an additional 25,000.

    Fairly simple tier 1 linear map that I think could fit on the easy server. Let me know what you think.

    The map itself is terrible and confusing, easy server players would just get lost.

    Note: While creating the final stage waypoint I used props to try to get the square where I wanted it, not sure if it worked or not.

    Apologies I haven;t gotten around to these yet, bit of a busy week. They'll be looked at this weekend.

    Surf_Cyanide - Accepted.
    Surf_derpis_ksf also accepted. For Derpis however I'll give you the option if you want to split the reward 50/50 with Bunz as he did suggest the map initially.

    I was seriously confused on what to do since the instructions weren't really clear to me, but I tried?

    I've been looking at a bunch of maps, especially linear as I think a lot of players (especially longtime players) on the server are getting a bit bored with mesa and forbidden ways and many still can't even complete mesa mines. But there are so many difficult and bad maps that I've found it a bit tiresome to look through them and though I plan on suggesting more I'll probably wait a few days. In the meantime, here are two linear maps I found pretty fun. Utopia being on the easier side and tensile is quite a bit more difficult and may be more suitable for the hard server. Nonetheless, let me know what you think.

    Surf_utopia cannot be done as it's a TF2 map, unless you can find a version with the textures baked in to the map file. I'll take a look at tensile.

    I took a look at the map you're making the config for and it doesn't seem to be a linear map, so you'll need a waypoint for each stage. I will mention that I won't accept adtr because in general it just seems confusing and doesn't really provide an enjoyable surf. That said I would keep practising using the surf tool on it until you have an understanding.

    As for tensile, I'll contemplate adding it to the hard server. It's confusing and somewhat low-light, but I think it may just make the mark.

    Okay cool, we really do need more on the easy server as well so I'm gonna look around and see if I can find either some more easier ones and perhaps a different version of utopia if it exists. I personally think that's a good easy map, closer to the difficulty of mesa, so it's a bummer that it's tf2. Thanks for the response!

    Okay so I'm honestly pretty confused about making waypoints for staged maps, especially this one as there are no walls at the end of the stages so I'm pointing my gun in midair trying to make the waypoint so I'm no sure where exactly the corner of the boxes will show up. Nonetheless I have acp and grassland ready as far as I know. Grassland should be fine as it's linear and I have a good idea of how to use the tool on linear maps. (Also, someone told me today that derpis is a tf2 map so I was wondering if it's fixed up somehow to work on the server or what since I was told that utopia wouldn't work as it uses tf2 textures.)

    I'll take a look at all the ones posted here in a bit. The way Eth9n got around the whole "mid-air" conundrum is he spawned props and then used those to make a makeshift square to click on, which works just as well.
