(Most bugs are now fixed)

Notes: Round time is 8 minutes. Food is balanced and good items are spread around the whole map. Everything i didn't fill in count's as the default settings. The Sponge is on top of the map.
Please tell me if there are overpowered chests, I checked them all but i might have missed something (because i had some visitors when i developed the map on the Buildbox)

That is a very nice map right there. I would really enjoy fighting for my life there, and it also has a nice moody atmosphere and fits in with a zombie survival server perfectly.

Looks nice, the name reminds me of starlight cavern from Vechs Kaizo Caverns

I'm glad you like it I am still working on the whole uploading thingy.....

Hmm, I can see that you've uploaded a file, but I need to activate premium to download the .zip - maybe try mediafire? Just .zip the entire save and upload it directly.

Thanks, it didn't upload it at first because it wasn't a .zip file. It is now posted on Mediafire

Great! Downloaded and took a look around. My thoughts are as follows:

1. I like the atmosphere. It is a bit similar to underground cavern, but the town, signs, and lights do help set it apart.

2. Item wise, most everything looks fine aside from the power 3 infinity 1 bow in the tower. Tone it down to power 2 at most, power 1 ideally.

3. There are a few holes in the cave walls. It's a minor detail, but I'd patch those up.

4. Kits look balanced.

Overall the map looks good! The only "necessary" change I'd say would be to tone down that bow in the central tower.

Thanks for pointing that out I thought it was Power III only. I'll surely chance that. also, I think that I need to take a good look at the wall. Is all fixed

I may be being over critical here, but there just doesnt seem to be that much in the map. Granted, you have added buildings and they work well but they seem rather empty. Particularly the large centre building, where you have one chest, in an area many times larger than other places with 4. I also think you underestimated the awesomesauce qualities of a Power III bow. Remember the other week, on WesternNightmare? You held off endless onslaughts of hunters, further fueling your need for more arrows, with just a power II bow. The map reminds me a lot of UndergroundForest, not just because of the theme, I think you pulled off the look really well, but I see relatively few chests, yet those that do exist, contain Overpowered loot. I am afraid I can but too easily imagine a survivor running around with a Power III bow and Knockback II sword, being eliminated only after a series of waves long enough to make even the most patient hunter ragequit. Also, it's possible for Sam the Survivor to sneak his way out of the map, as the area that says "The way is shut", has a cobble wall. Mobs I have also noticed, are plentiful, which really derps people off, so maybe place torches or even just add torches to survivor kits? I am by no means trying to put you off map making, indeed I can see that the map has an epic feel to it, through the dramatic lighting, but I just think that at the moment, it's basically just trees, and Harry the Hunter is likely to be extremely slothed off by the antics of Sam the Survivor.

(TL;DR Great map, still think items need tweaking and more structures)

Thankyou for your comment baker, I also crossed the problem of the "Mobs spawning" like almost everywere on the map. I thought about putting a torch in every 4x4 T.T but that would've ruined the look. Also, there are like 5 chests hidden in trees :3 indeed a little rip off from Furion's map ( didn't mean 2). I'll try to redo the map and add some more things. The Power III bow chest contains like 3-5 arrows, i knew it was very powerfull and that 50% off everyone would run for the tower chest at the begining of the match so that's why i also added good swords and such in the other chests like the ones at the market. btw, Thanks for pointing out the "The way is shut" thingy. I forgot to add cobble to the Not break list. I'll surely take all off everyones commentary into my further map development

Just make map mushroom biome, or get some1 to do it when uploading, this will fix the mobs thing.

Sorry for the long wait for a verdict to be reached! Unfortunately this map is not yet ready to be put into rotation. Feel free to work on it and re-submit it.
