Nester is a completely randomly generated map; it's created on the fly as you explore it! It was made entirely in the hammer level editor and makes use of no additional scripts, assets, or entities.

Almost every room has randomised elements, and many are able to vary their size. Rooms also react to their height in the world, availability of space, and existing doorways, changing to fit what's already there as best they can. This also means the order doors are explored can greatly change what gets created.

The map can be played multiplayer, but be aware that rooms spawning in at the same time may fail to detect eachother, causing glitches if they intersect.

The map has protections against going off the edge of the level, but will eventually crash or glitch out as Garry's mod runs out of entity slots. From testing, this happens after a fairly large amount of rooms, so shouldn't normally be a problem. If you want a do-over, cleaning up the server will work just fine. The map can be fairly resource heavy, so it might be worth disabling some addons if you want to explore extensively.

The map requires no additional content. It has no lightmap and is not noded, as neither of these were possible to implement.

The map is named "nester", and can be found in the "other" category in the start new game menu.

There is one easter egg in the map. It involves an old friend from another of my maps, and can be triggered by doing something they'd react to.
