Mission Architect Improvements

Some choice in how custom enemies die.

I'd like my ghosts to poof into nothing and not leave a body.

Clues attached to patrols and ambushes, especially for when said ambushes are foreshadowing events for later parts of the arc or even later arcs.

The option for clues to appear on the first time a multi-quantity objective is clicked. (especially collections).

Locational triggered events.

Come Alive events such as the traps in Imperious and Hess. Comes with options of enemies standing stock still (like the mech men in those TFs) or coming out of the ground (like Banished Pantheon zombies). The mobs connected to a single glowy item that is either clickable or destructable, maybe with options for multiple spawns connected to said item.

Of course, customizeable enemy powers.

oh yes


I would really love an outdoor map as murky as the ruladak cave.

Perhaps Dark Astoria.

Perhaps some place more victorian.

More specific Spawn locations.

Front, Middle, and Back don't really cut it when you're trying for a cinematic sequence of encounters.

I.E., one of my missions has the player fighting several Nemesis robots modeled after Arachnos. Once the Recluse bot is at low health, the real Recluse is supposed to show up dramatically to finish it personally...Except he's halfway across the map. So he winds up shouting "Fools! No mere machine can substitute my power!" to...absolutely nobody.

Kinda kills the moment. At the very least it would be nice to spawn allies on the player's location. That alone would fix half the dramatic failures in my arc.

On that note, I would also love the ability to set up cutscenes, though that might be a bit of a stretch.

A flag for default content.

Picture this; I want to make an arc that uses default content (no unlocked stuff) but I've already unlocked one or more (in my case; all) parts for use in the architect. The arc server goes down and I can't make use of the unlocked parts anyway but I might be part way through creating one or decide to create/polish an arc for someone else. It would be nice to know what parts are part of the basic package.


More maps

I know we've got some coming soon (like next maintenance soon) but only four are new to us. The Crey lab was a removed piece that has hopefully been fixed but there's a few more maps I would like to see like one from the LRSF(?) which is a single room inside a Cap Au Diable building with ruins of the island outside a single window. I like the addition of the demon lab map as well but more is always better. There's plenty more left to choose from but I also wouldn't mind seeing a couple of purposely designed MA ones, maps not yet used but created for future missions in mind.

I tried to sum them all up where likely more MA users look, and where there's analogous threads about MA map requests and MA bugs already:
