"premium" maps?

[aloha.pk]

what are "premium" maps in the server configurator?

for example, the map/rotation lists show:

Official (ball) Plane Ball maps
Official |premium|ball| maps

what's the difference?

[Karl]

• Each premium category will have no more than 10 maps
• Maps must have great graphics
• Maps must provide a fun experience for players of all skill level
  • All premium maps are also official
  • Maps must be balanced
  • Maps cannot be too cramped making it hard on new players
  • TBD maps must be small enough that they don't stale mate with new players.

The premium map list will change as better maps make it into the official map list.

premium maps are:
// 3 1 life base destruction
"1bd_core"
, "1bd_fallout"
, "1bd_lostcity"
// 6 1 life demolition
, "1de_asteroids"
, "1de_cave"
, "1de_darkwar"
, "1de_mayhem"
, "1de_maze"
, "1de_middleground"
// 10 1 life deathmatch
, "1dm_asteroids2"
, "1dm_cave"
