New Store with gas pumps WIP.
Will be able to find food, water bottles and refill Jerry cans at this store.
Close to final version of the new Store 'n' Gas building. A few things will probably change when it dropped onto the map. The inside has areas for item spawns, beans, water, shotgun behind counter, ammo on shelves. An 'omni' light was placed in the store for rendering and will not be in the game.
Question: looks amazing im wondering if the ability to close/board the doors up will be an option?
Answer From Kevin Kelley:
Doors will not open or close.
Barricading will be added after/during enterable buildings.
There will be generic 'Barricading' system, if you have the correct items in your inventory you will be able to barricade a building.
The 3D models and collision will appear on all the doors to a building, you will only be able to barricade a building from the inside, near a door.
Zombies and other player will not be able to enter and players inside will not be able to exit.
'x' number of axe hits will destroy a barricade.
Players will have to remove barricades to be able to exit a building.
If the player who barricaded a building exits the server while in the building, barricades will automatically be removed.
Barricading will be useful to get away from zombies, hide from other players ( in buildings that provide cover ), provide security for snipers in buildings with more than one floor.
Question: Can't wait for that update! By the way, how is the gas station gonna fit with the other buildings? I mean, it's way prettier than the ones we have actually.
Answer From Kevin Kelley:
Most the models will get updates including the addition of props and decals like seen in 'End of Days'.
Windows have no glass, just frames and can be shot in/out of.
Collision will be tightened up on all new models as they are added.

Here are some update renders with small lighting effect for an enterable barn that will be added to the map in couple updates.
Question: Will you be able to get on the platform because it looks like the stairs are broken?
Answer From Kevin Kelley: Yes the stairs are accessible.
The concrete foundation extends deep into the ground so that on a slope there are no gaps under the model.
All new enterable buildings with stairs will will be placed so the stairs work correctly for collision and accessible.
