Map Idea - "The shadow realm"
The shadow realm
A dark version of the actual map, but all biters are in there, they can freely roam there. Everything on the main world is mimicked as ghost in the shadow realm. Every once in a while, biters escape the shadow realm and can appear anywhere on the map
Players can also go to the shadow realm, but can't build anything. The only way to kill spawners, is to go the shadow realm. The light setting on there is always like 0.5. It's similar to how Stranger Things has it.
It just means we have to script biters to appear inside the factory, meaning that building walls only has a limited effect. Perhaps we should make it so that they spawn at a minimum distance, and it should be easy to get bots.
Adding an 'early warning' before the biters 'break through' would massively help. We can indicate this with a map alert and spawn effects. It should warn only if they break through inside radar cover.
