====== Most Dangerous Game ======
The MDG game type gets its name from the short story by
Richard Connell.  This is an Asynchronous gameplay that
pits a single player against every other player.  Presumably,
the single player is skillful and can handle themselves.
Nevertheless, the map should be designed to provide an
advantage to the single player.  The natural advantage provided
by the map, and their skill will be tested by the coordination
of all other players trying to defeat the most dangerous
game.

This map type doesn't need to be very big, as the action should
be centered around the MDG player's strong hold.  The
game type can be played either as TDM or 1DM, but works best
as 1DM, where players do not spawn after being defeated.

Be mindful of the game timer when creating MDG maps, the
optimal time is somewhere between 2 and 5 minutes depending
on the map.

As you can see, in this example, there are safe spots for
both sides, and the MDG player has a defensible position.
On this map, the MDG player is blue, ans spawns in the top-right
section of the map.

==== Switching players ====
If the group wishes to elect someone else (presumably becuause
they are good and want to be it) to be the MDG, then you can
vote in a player, say ''playerA'' with the following command:

  /vote prey playerA

===== Map Making =====
When designing an MDG map, create a protected area for the
MDG player, and a spawn location far from that protected
area for the other players.  You should also create spawn
positions for the MDG team suitable for bots.  In 1DM,
these spawns should ensure the bots die right away, usually
by spawning them right into a high damage wall.  In TDM,
this should be a safe space, where you don't expect the bots
to die (similar to a coop map).

You will then specify the specific spawn location for the MDG
player to move them out of the bot kill barrel.  In MDG, you
must also specify which team the pack should be on.

  /set assignTeam left
  /set spawnMode zone
  /add zone spawn right 2800,900,nw
