The look of the future

It'd be hard to make it look like the actual top of a skyscraper, though. There's no background image or skybox or anything, just a black void.

Yeah, that's rather problematic, but i'm sure that eventually some sort of backdrop system will be implemented, although that'd probably be low prioroty graphical fluff... not the highest thing on the list in a game with so much other stuff to implement and tweak.

Still, i like the idea of a scyscraper level with a UFO landed on the roof, file that one, i think it's a keeper.

I like that idea myself, although I don't have any mapping experience.

If you're any good at mapping or willing to learn from the wiki, I don't think anyone would stop you if you started such a map.

I wouldn't bet on it.

Why? I think that having black borders areound the field, while yes, reduces the idea of "Maybe I can go there", but, come on, the world isnt filled with black borders

I think it has more to do with limitations of the graphics engine than with developer's willingness to code it.

Cheers!
