  • Added additional wire spools by the 2 silos, to indicate a badly placed clip brush that could block players.

Developer Note: These wire spools can be pounced off since they are inside a clip brush.

  • Removed Valve's clips in the grinder area that prevented players from jumping in some places.

Triggers

Ladders

  • Added an infected ladder to climb on to the pipe at the ramp drop return point.
  • Added an infected ladder to climb up at the ramp drop.
  • Added an infected ladder to get on the gas station roof without jumping over some props.

Developer Note: With pre-elevator tanks on map 3 enabled again, this gives survivors a new way to fight the tank. This should help when dealing with rock tanks, as survivors now have the option to take the high ground and not completely corner themselves in the area behind the gas station.

Spit Block

  • Spit does not deal damage in the elevator.
