Alright, with that out of the way;

Please leave any bugs you find as a message in the comments.

This is a work in progress, I've singlehandedly created this map on my own, I learned many things but in order to progress, I need your help.

Have you ever felt like some of the Stranded maps are lacking in the effort department?

I have, I always felt it would be more interesting with a varied landscape, that it would be fun if NPC's were spawning to populate the world. I felt like a sense of life and danger without other players would spice up the gameplay a bit. There are huge cave systems that connect completely different areas. The whole map is a loop, you can start in one spot, pick a direction and keep walking till you're back where you began.

There are secrets! Two of them, one is quite easy to discover, the other is quite easy to miss, they are playable areas.

I aimed to use only vanilla Episode 2 assets to create a world that's both interesting to explore and rather light on your system. It's varied in height and depth, in scenery and vibes. I built this map with the idea that it would be hosting up to 6 players in Stranded Survival, with enough content and complexity to provide fun gameplay. This has yet to be fully tested and studied with this being my very first release.

I spent many months working on this project; I've gone through many iterations and designs, I've learned many things on my own but in order to progress; I need your input. :D

Introducing Hollow Mountain! WIP

You are able to walk to any point on the map, without jumping you should be able to reach the highest point and you should be able to reach the bottom of the map by walking.

Where are the textures?
Before you say "You need HL3:E2" I read the damn description. I'm just annoyed that you can't be bothered to import the textures and use that rather than making people pay to use literally ANY good NPC survival map on this workshop.

10/10 map, love how it forces people to actually move and not just set up camp in one spot

Not sure why everyone is asking "plz remove npc spawns i dont like them" when he released a version without spawns 2 days after this map was released. Here it is for the people who can't bother researching: https://steamproxy.net/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1289609244
