This map was misconceived by the twelve year old apprentice to Doctor Evil.   “AJ” is only the margarine of Evil.   He is the diet version of Evil.   Therefore the deviant Doctor executed AJ’s plan for “Evil Escher Pyramids in Space”, known for short as CTFM-AJ.

Each flagbase is located in Level 3 of its own pyramid. There is an obvious hole in the middle of each of the three main floors.   The hole in the lowest floor of one pyramid emerges from the hole in the ceiling of another flagbase.   This gives human players a huge advantage over the hapless bots, who can’t figure out this shortest route between flag bases.

[Main path between green and gold pyramids]

There is a direct route between the front entrances of the red and blue pyramids and there is another such route between the green and gold pyramids.   However, the bots do not often use these obvious routes, despite the various goodies there, (jet fighter, strangelove, redeemer, etc.).

[Red bot carrying the blue flag meets blue bot carrying the green flag]

Under the centres of these walkways are 'X' shapes of four intersecting corridors, which are linked by warp portals to the front faces of the pyramids.   The path to each team’s pyramid is clearly colour coded.   There is also a pair of narrower straight corridors which lead via warp portals to the back side of each pyramid, allowing access to the flag base from a sniper perch above.   Bots much prefer these two routes between flag bases.

Bots do sometimes get hung up at the entrances on the sides of the pyramids.   Bots that fall onto the top of the central corridors don’t have a clue how to get back into the corridors and will stay put until a human puts them out of their misery.     Unzip the zip file into your "UnrealTournament/" directory. The following files should then unzip into the correct locations:

in the appropriate place in your "System/UnrealTournament.ini" file.

Note:   Maps that start with the prefix "CTFM-" require the MultiCTF mod in order to enable four-team play, with four flag bases (red, blue, green and gold).   A copy of the CTF4 and MultiCTF mods can be obtained from the Multilabs site, either by following the links at the Multilabs home page, or by going directly to their downloads page.   The relevant files are also available at FilePlanet, at ModSquad and at SOBServers.
