This is just right outside the last spawn room for blue. If you over the roof that is right outside of spawn and fall behind the rock like in the screenshots you will get stuck.

That is a bit of a bad attitude :( borax is an older map so I don't know if the mapper is still around to fix this, but it seems like something that the majority of players would not be affected by. Thanks for pointing it out though, I'll check it out next time I am on

There are actually multiple rocks you can get stuck behind on this map. Just '~;kill' yourself if you do manage to get stuck or ask an admin to explode you.

Some people don't have the 'kill on class change' option enabled.

"OK, try to imagine yourself in the J2 Server... You get your first look at this "Pinkle" as you enter a clearing. She moves like a bird, lightly, bobbing her flamethrower. And you keep still because you think that maybe her visual acuity is based on movement like Johnny5 - She'll lose you if you don't move. But no, not Pinkle. You stare at her, and she just stares right back. And that's when the attack comes. Not from the front, but from the side, from the Hippie and Wolsky you didn't even know were there. Because Pinkle's a pack hunter, you see, she uses coordinated attack patterns and she is out in force today. And he slashes at you with this... A barbed-wired-wrapped fire axe, The Axetinguisher, in her left hand. She doesn't bother to headshot you like a Porkbun, say... no no. She lights you and slashes at you here, or here... Or maybe across the belly, critting your intestines. The point is, you are alive when she starts to rape you. So you know, try to show a little respect..." -- 3Ducks

Seems like a bit of effort to pull off anyway. It's probably fine. It's not like it's an exploitive untouchable Engie Nest kinda spot right?

Holy shit, it's Blip. lol And yea if you have to work at getting to the spot where you can actually fall through and get stuck then it is most likely not worth fixing so dont go there and or dont fall into the hole.
Im not random. i just think faster then you.

It's simple enough to decompile, change, and recompile a map but that is frowned upon by just about everyone unless you have permission from the original map author. Although I think multiple people have changed around Rooftime every now and then.

A couple years back someone tracked down the creator of Rooftime to let him know J2 had adopted his map and evolved it through the years; he seemed pleased. No one on J2 has exclusive ownership of the map.

Players can get stuck in one way doors on Solitude B1.
