Egyptian themed CTF map. Small, fast pace layout.

- Ankh is heavily inspired by TF2's Lakeside for Capture the Point and uses the central "chunk" as the starting point for a CTF map.
- The entire map was built in RED. (Palm trees are imported).
- Bases overhauled to work for RF.
- Layout overhauled to work for RF.
- Added new flank route giving the map 3 routes.
- The map was made as a mirror symmetric CTF layout.
- Textures from TF2's Lakeside, Egypt and general textures.

BETA 5 UPDATES:
Beta 5 focused on major framework adjustments. The core map geometry was stretched and shrunk, so to speak.

- Pyramid side of map was stretched out 1 meter from center of map, adding 1 extra meter of path course for flag carrier per side. This change also extended the wood section of the base out by 1 meter, exposing flag carrier to the open for a bit longer. This change was made to help balance out both flag paths.

- 1 other big change on the Pyramid side is that the door entering the "tunnel" section has been increased in size, helping to expose flag carrier and giving a better change to defend when flag carrier enters that area.

- The window was very very slightly enlarged.

- The Temple side of the map also received framework changes. The building exterior was extended 1 meter from center of map towards bases. Keeping the interior the same size. In turn this also shrinks the width of the wood ramp from lvl 1 to lvl 2 and also creates a small hallway entering the temple from the base side. This change also caused level 2 dirt area to shrink 1 meter due to the building extension, this allows more cover on Temple side.

- The pool has undergone many changes over the beta iterations and this time it has been shrunk to fit the room better and allow more surface to walk around.

- Due to extending the map 1 meter in width, the central stairs needed to be adjusted and half a meter was added to the width of each set of stairs.

- WEAPON LAYOUT CHANGES: Very minor changes. The armor and health in temple have been switched and grenades were removed from base (near HMG) and placed in the temple pool.

* This map is still in beta and may have texture / lighting issues and perhaps bugs. Feel free to DM me about any bugs you do find and I'll update for Beta 6.

The comments may not apply to the newest version. Looks like an improvement over the previous beta - looking forward to playing it EDIT 8/19/2023 - Tried it 3v3 and 4v4 - I think it is an improvement overall at any player count. It is harder than previous betas, but in a good way imo. Good combination of cap routes that provide enough cover while also providing open spaces for intense combat from all angles. Win or lose, I always love playing this map
