Is it possible to extend server-siding by allowing the client to download whole maps from the server (when joining) using default objects and resources (w3d, wav etc)? That way entire maps can be made with more possibilities (such as tile-placing) server-sided.
Without any resources or Objects files, the file-size should be really small and so easy and quick to download.

How is this different from normal maps? The map does not have to include the resources it uses as long as they are in always.dat (or any other mix archive in the data folder actually)

I believe they had already planned on doing something like this? I could be wrong, but I thought was discussed on that public irc channel #TT @ n00bstories/n00bless/Jelly/BI network
