Its very hard to make a detailed map for Kalamazoo Airsoft, because they change the layout of the field every couple weeks. They would have to constantly be making adjustments to the map.

They could make each piece of cover a separate layer so when it is moved they can drag it around, rotate it, or remove it until it's used again. That way they would not have to remake the whole map over every time they change. Making adjustments would only take a few minutes once they have all the parts and the basic layout created. |

In CQB, you rarely need maps, even for planning. Seeing all the entrances and cover on paper in an environment like the Airhouse dosn't do much, especially since starting points cycle each game, unlike in field games where team spawns are usually set in stone at the beginning of the event and different areas are large distances from eachother.
The best way to become comfortable with the Airhouse and it's layout is to come early when the doors open and walk around on the field (with goggles on, people still come out shooting to test thier guns) before gametime.

Very good point. I'll be sure to come early to my first visit. |
