= Custom Maps and Mapping Rules in CIT =
In '''CIT''', players can request '''custom maps''' for their '''group bases''', '''squad interiors''', or '''[[criminal]] event (CE)''' locations. However, there are specific '''rules''' and '''guidelines''' that must be followed to ensure fair gameplay and consistency. Below are the rules for '''group and squad interiors''' as well as '''city-related''' and '''general mapping guidelines'''.
----

==== Mapping Rules ====

# '''General Mapping Guidelines''':
#* '''DO NOT remove world objects''' if your group is '''under Level 6'''.
#* Even if your group is '''L6+''', and your map isn't designed at its '''best quality''', your request '''WILL BE REJECTED'''.
#* '''DO NOT resize objects'''.
#* The '''base''' size cannot be larger than '''100x''' (width), '''100y''' (depth), and '''20z''' (height).
#* '''CITy bases''' cannot be requested '''outside''' the cities of '''Las Venturas''' and '''San Fierro'''.
#* '''Community [[groups]]''' (levels '''2-5''') can only have '''1 interior marker''' and '''1 gate'''.
#* '''Official groups''' (levels '''6-10''') can have '''up to 3 interior markers''' and '''2 gates'''.
#* You '''CANNOT remove [[houses]]''' that have '''enterable house markers'''.
#* The '''Land Development team''' can reject your map request if the map is poorly designed or if it breaks basic physical rules (e.g., '''floating objects''').
#* If your request is rejected, you can open another request again after '''15 days'''.

----

==== City-Related Mapping Rules ====

# '''Los Santos (LS)''':
#* '''New map requests''' for '''Los Santos''' are '''not accepted''' unless you're moving your base out of '''LS''' or editing it to reduce the number of objects.
#* '''DO NOT map anything near''': '''Dillimore''', '''Blueberry''', '''Montgomery''', or '''Palomino Creek'''.
# '''San Fierro and Surrounding Rural/Desert Areas''':
#* All '''global rules''' apply.
#* You are limited to '''50 objects or less''' for a '''normal base'''.
#* For a '''CITy base''', the object limit is '''150 objects'''.
#* You are allowed to request a '''CITy base''', but please ensure that it is located '''out of the way''' in '''San Fierro'''. Avoid placing it in '''crowded areas''' or near job markers.
# '''Las Venturas and War Islands (Sea)''':
#* All '''global rules''' apply.
#* You are limited to '''50 objects or less''' for a '''normal base'''.
#* For a '''CITy base''', the object limit is '''150 objects'''.
#* Your base must be mapped considerably far from a '''turf''' to allow easy access to and from turfs.
#* If your base has an '''underground area''', it must '''NOT be inside or near a turf'''. '''Instant denial''' of the base request.
#* Your base must not have any '''UNFAIR access''' to a turf.

----

==== Group Interior Rules ====

# '''Interior Objects''':
#* '''Interior objects''' must be placed '''around the interior marker'''. The '''maximum number of objects''' you can place around the interior marker is '''10'''.
#* Objects like '''bars''' or generally '''interior-related objects''' should '''not''' be placed '''outside''' the interior.
#* Avoid mapping '''random buildings on top''' of other buildings or creating overly large buildings that obscure '''smaller buildings''' and '''map features'''.
#* '''Mapped interiors''' must contain a '''maximum of 110 objects''' inside.
#* An interior should use '''GTA:SA map buildings''' to their best, without adding '''poorly designed''' elements. The '''Land Development team''' will be strict in evaluating interior map quality, so be aware that poorly designed interiors may be '''rejected'''.

----

==== Squad Interior Rules ====

# '''Squad Interiors''':
#* Everything related to '''group interiors''' applies to '''squad interiors''' as well.
#* Only [[squads]] that have had a '''squad board for 4 months''' can apply for an interior.
#* The squad must have at least '''50 members''' and at least '''30 active members''' (logged in within the last '''7 days''').
#* The squad must have an '''active forum board'''. If a squad’s board isn’t active, the request will be '''rejected'''.
# '''Reapplying for Squad Interiors''':
#* If your squad has '''recently lost its interior''', you will need to wait '''4 months''' before you can request a new one.

----

==== Miscellaneous Rules ====

# '''Group Activity Requirement''':
#* The '''group must have had a sub-board for at least 1 month''' and must be '''actively posting'''. A board with no posts will indicate that the group is '''barely active''' and may be '''rejected'''.
# '''Gate Naming Convention''':
#* Gates must be named using the format: <code>"gate_status_ID"</code>, such as <code>"gate_open_1"</code> and <code>"gate_close_1"</code>.
#* The gates should be positioned in the places where you want them to be opened or closed. If they are not named or positioned correctly, you will not be able to have '''moving gates'''.
# '''Additional Requests''':
#* When submitting requests, use '''common sense''' in your mapping work. If common sense isn’t followed, your request may be '''rejected'''.
#* '''Not necessarily required''': But it would be helpful if you upload the '''.map file''' from the saved map resource (the file containing '''meta.xml''', '''mapEditorScriptingExtension''' files). This saves time during the upload process and reduces the space used.
#* '''No protection''' is allowed on submitted map files. If your uploaded file is detected by '''anti-virus software''' (like '''Windows Defender'''), your request will be '''rejected'''.
#* '''No passwords''' are allowed on submitted maps. Once the base is added to the server, it will be available for '''everyone''' to download and use.
#* It doesn't require a skilled mapper to copy an existing base. If someone blatantly copied your base and applied with it, they will be denied and blacklisted.
