100% 57m 40s nice map

Thx man!

Yeah go ahead , there are better ways using cascade but you can take what you need.

Hey cannon do you think i could use the rain effects you made for this map in a map i wanna make?

Atmosphere, rats (!), quick dispensers - great map

I REALLY enjoyed this map! I love the rain and overall dark vibe of it, along with it being easy to clean. I made sure to not put anything too close to the walls of the elevator and I had no issues with it at all. Would love to see a bigger version of this map with maybe a basement and more apartments on each floor, but it’s perfect as is!

Yeah that elevator has been a pain, rebuilt it couple of times but still has wall issues. Best I could do for now was to add failsafes around it to stop anything getting trapped outside or making mess

Good map, lovely story elements in each room. Definitely be careful in the elevator stuff against the walls might disappear while it's moving and you might lose some important equipment. Savescum your way around the elevator.

Cool, fast job! Cheers!

There we go little update, improved lighting, added extra fail safes to the elevator, outside map shouldn't receive dirt.

Well, i always do many screenshots, so here it is: https://psteamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2792896129

Yep that elevator is the bane of the map, I've added a couple of fail safes, that obviously aren't working well, I'll have to take another look.
Pda's, yeah that's me being lazy, if I can fix the elevator I'll pop some real ones down, and check the outside area, soot shouldn't be able to go there.
Pretty sure I had barrel stacking too, again more to look at.
Glad you managed to 100+% it though.

Yet another great map, thanks Cannon! Relatively small map, atmosphere is there, humor too. Loved the bullet holes on the floor under a corpse. Control shots? :)
A few small issues noticed: 1) Datapads end up blank when brought to office, 2) didn't find a barrel-stacking place and was getting nervous since I am a godly janitor, 3) In the lift, something meaty (probably a rat) clipped thru the floor and got stuck to it underneath, making sounds each time the lift moved, green scanner alarmed too, no way to clean this, 4) in the alley, decided to hunt the rat, ended up regretting this act of violence: rat survived but fire crept outside the restricted zone and left soot marks where i couldn't reach with my broom (behind yellow tape) - also caused green scanner alarm. The map is quite dark which is okay and moody, but it forced me to place too many lamps and my fps was dropping quite much ;)
Despite that, had fun and still got 106% somehow. Great job!

Hmm that's a new one, I'll try to replicate it, see what I can do.

Hey, I wanted to let you know about a bug I've encountered during this map. I've had a few of the nametags disappear out of my hands when trying to enter the lift and after ghosting I found out they somehow appeared on top of the lift without any way of safely recovering them.

Really good map. I loved it

Excellent map! Its a great size but I still wanted more because of the dark undertones of the story. Loved the rainy back ally, great way to set the tone. Nice touch with all the dead rats. Oh and the dead guy in the toilets.... really disturbing to turn around and he's just staring straight at you. Great work!! Thank you!

Very much appreciated, thanks for the comment.

I loved it - it's a good size, it's fun,- there are lots of rooms to clean and there's lore!- it's a little sad to see the janitors getting ready to stay cool during the protests but geting murdered- one of the best stages and done with love- it's very dark but fun-

yeah I have crime scene and body of evidence on my watch list, who knows if we'll ever see them

im really into murder investigations so cleaning up after murders in houses is fun lol wish the game "crime scene cleanup" would come out but i don't think it ever will but that's ok because i have your maps so thank you! lol

Hey thanks! I'll be sure to try and add another creepy house type map when I start my next round of mapping.

please do more creepy murder houses <3 can't get enough of your maps.

Just had a run around the map, I tried to replicate it but couldn't. I took it to top floor saved and quit, took it to top floor and got out saved/quit, done them again but closed the doors before saving, put something against the wall to wall to jam it, and it still worked.
I'm at a loss I'm afraid, I can only suggest as you've done, ghost mode to top floor and try to call it/open doors, same for bottom floor, and doing it from inside the lift too, check the surrounding area in the "shaft" and near the doors to see if there's anything blocking it. Beyond that I don't know, simply because I can't make it get stuck to see the problem.
Could always mash the call button too, see if that helps.

Such a great map, and was enjoying playing it, but after saving the game and returning, I could not take the elevator (the doors just would not open). Tried ghost mode and went upstairs and tried a few things to see if I could get it to open, but no luck. Any idea what is going on?

I mean it is a space janitor game, but the change of scenery is always nice yeah. Thanks!

I really like your maps cuz they're looking more like todays time on earth than futuristic space station :D !

I'll look at getting a no splat volume down there to stop any mess going through.
Thanks for the write up too!

Nice map, it makes good use of the available assets to portray the intended environment plus the addition of mice is a nice touch. Working around the hallways proved a bit tedious which I think adds to the patience-testing nature of VCD lol.

Completed the map in 1 hour 11 minutes, can definitely be done in ~15 minutes less when compensating for some of my mistakes.

One issue I found though is that on the first floor right below the lift there is this empty space in which at the end of the map I found a splatter of blood, I presume it to be from a mouse that glitched in the trash cans I used (at no point did it clip through however). The only way to clean it is to ghost, can this portion of the shaft be clipped (if that's how it works) so no decals can be created?

I really liked this more down to earth kinda map, was really fun to play. A bit of a different concept among a lot of spaced ones :) So ty for a good time cleaning and hope you keep up :)

Thanks again.
Lightbulbs have now been screwed back in,fuses checked and starters replaced, lights no longer need to be rebuilt.

good news: i found the new pda humorous.
bad news: "lighting needs to be rebuilt." - i don't know what this means, but the level really wants me to know this. says it in both the reloaded save, and fresh start.

Awesome thanks, managed to replicate it, none of the walls were safe!
Fixed it, but it's a dirty fix for now.
The lift now jams, and you have to have to activate keypad again. All I got but it's better than dying.

alright, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AqZEbtYhDNk there ya go. this happens 100% of the time on this wall. the wall on the other side kills me too. the back wall is safe though. and the center is safe.

Hmm, I can't figure out what'd cause the lift to kill you.
I've watched Boney play it no problems, I've had to use it loads during testing and playing, worked fine.
If anyone can pinpoint the thing the triggers it I'll fix it. I just can't replicate it (apart from getting too close to the doors).

great map, of course. loved the themed rooms. like playing a bunch of micromaps. had all the same problems as NeVeRmInD though. the elevator ate a few buckets and killed me once, but didn't prevent me from finishing or anything.

Don't thank me dude, you deserve it ! :)

It happened while i had some stuff in the elevator with me (a bucket and a lantern)
I just relaunched the game and removed the stuff from the elevator before going up, i'm not dying anymore so i don't know what happened :/

Maybe something related to the objects? Don't know why, but i suspect the lantern since it started happening after i took a lantern in the elevator. Or maybe not. Maybe just a strange bug on my side.
Anyway, problem's solved for me :)

Also thanks for the praise, glad it's keeping you interested/playing.

Just had a quick mess about, I couldn't seem to get anything stuck undr the elevator, I made a space under it the deletes anything that gets lost down there, and it seems to work ok.
I tried jamming stuff in the dorrs, still worked ok.
The only time I died was when I stood right up against the door, either being crushed by the doors closing or the tiny platfrom on the top level.

Possibly a bugged save? What happens if you start a new game, or ro-load a safe? can you recreate it happening, or let me know what happens exactly, I'd be happy to iron out that bug.

Cannon ! The man that answered so many of my questions ahah ! Glad to see you're still active and making maps dude !
I just spent one hour playing around the map and man is it a good one !
The only (little) problem i have is that for some reason the elevator keeps killing me while going up.. Maybe that has something to do with something stuck underneath the elevator?

Anyway, amazing map, keep on doing what you're doing dude, your maps are the reason i'm still playing VCD from time to time !

Hope you got more coming our way ! :)

wow raking in the subs lol i like it:)
you made an awesome map here
kinda wish more would rate up yours and my creations abit more esp the work that went into creating them:)
anyhow great map mate:)

Thanks! and good job!

The 3rd map I ever made. Before I knew what I was doing properly.

Enter at own risk

I keep hearing about the Funhouse and where can i find it.

Linzombie's finished stacking area.
The welder for the bullet holes is in that room.

Hey great job on the map man!

Thanks!

Yeah funhouse wasn't as fun as I wanted and pretty far from what I imagined.

As for the rat, it only counts as trash once you kill it.

Really liked this map. I always like your realistic "closer to earth" type of levels, like Omnimart and Hi Ping. Good job.

didn't really liked funhouse though

Also, does the running rat counts as a trash?

Yeah it's in the right context in the brief.
"the events of the uprising", was how I ment it, not "the events of uprinsing".
Think I only refer to the map uprinsing in the steam description, the rest of the time I just call it the uprising
