Map Design
Sandbox maps should be general-purpose, as you have you have no idea what the players are going to do.
Here are some features you might want to add to your map:
- Large open space for building and driving vehicles
- Tall skyboxes for flying contraptions
Warning: Do not add buildings that you can't go in, it only takes away from the experience.
