Anyway, no new updates on DT, except... well, no, I don't think I'll tell you that. It's something really cool... I don't think you all could handle it
Well, I didn't want to overwhelm you with awesomeness!!
I've been deciding whether there should be something called "streaming" versus "hard-read" both useful in their own way. But it may not even appear in DT as this is a concept idea

Why did you bother saying there was something secret in the first place, and type it into a message, that just makes us brag...
Could you tell us now? Now? What about now? Howsa-bout now? No? What about now?
Well it was basically an idea/debate I had with myself. Whether an echo message is better than a GUI message and what are the pro's and con's of each. To me it just really depended on the circumstances. For instance, if you're "streaming" something to your HUD, then it's going to be an echo prompt while a GUI would be in response to a "hard-read."
Well, new update... of sorts. I was able to do some heavy mapping... in L4D2 Authoring Tools. Meaning I can work on DT as a L4D2 campaign. Don't worry, I'm still working on DT as a Sandbox project
I'm still having trouble finding the right size (map, building, etc.)
Making DT into an L4D2 campaign would be fairly easy, once I find out how to correctly manipulate a Checkpoint Room and a "func_tracktrain", I can make loads of features for the L4D2 campaign.
Creating things in the L4D2 Authoring Tools is actually pretty straight forward. Elevators can have multiple stops, switches can be triggered when something breaks, Get the Idea?
